Question

umm...well my MP3/MP4 player has a recorder on it. and umm.. i was wondering if i can use it to catch evps. or do i have to get some specialized equipment to do that.

Answer 1

That is fine or you can use a tape recorder.  Nothing special for this.

Answer 2

You do not need any special equipment to capture a possible EVP.

However, anything other than a tape or a one time use CD will always be open to charges that it was tampered with in order to produce an EVP.

Also, one must take simple precautions like not walking around with the recorder and recording your own foot steps and other natural sounds that could be misidentified on play back. All people should be well out of recording range so that faint normal human voices aren't recorded by accident.

I provided a link below for you to an EVP association.

Answer 3

"evps" are actually real sounds created by real things. A tape recorder doesn't record ghost sounds.

eople who want to think 'evps' are from ghosts can't logically figure out where the sounds are actually coming from.

Answer 4

You can use any recording device.

I myself do not have a directional microphone but  in most instances I sit down before starting the recorder, this way I am sure not to move around while conducting a session. It is just my way of assuring myself I didn't make any stepping noise or shuffling sounds.

Answer 5

An mp3/4 player can record EVP. Your best bet is get buy a omnidirectional microphone to cut down on interference. As was suggested, you will want to stay relatively stationary while doing this. If asking questions give about 20 or so seconds between them.

Audacity is free software you get download to help analyze your evps.

Answer 6

your mp3/4 is fine
