I've always had a certain amount of respect for RCA. The kind of respect you might have for an old man that lives next door, a distinguished scientist perhaps, or a retired elder statesman. After all, I did start studying electronics with the RCA Receiving Tube Manual and the RCA Radio Designers Handbook. I've seen their logo on enough pieces of older equipment, and while a RCA jack may seem horribly outdated next to a fiber optic ST connector, the warmth of nostalgia is there.
Or rather, was there.
You see, I bought a cheap voice recorder. RCA VR5320R-A to be exact. And while I was excited to get it for ~$20 Cdn, courtesy of my local Princess Auto, I am considerably less thrilled to discover it won't connect via USB.
A little research uncovers that these units are notorious for USB failure, and the best solution is to re-record the data via a male-male 1/4" patch cord.
Data transfer via audio patching?
Oh RCA, how you have failed me...
