Someone should invent a recorder that is basically a SD card slot and input/output connectors and
attaches to an iPhone, using the iPhone as the control surface. They have microphones that attach to
iPhones already, but I'm talking about a full-function recorder with external memory (not using the
iPhone's audio processor or memory). You'd need to have on-board ADC and DAC because the iPhone only
goes to 48/16, I think.
