EVP Wrist Recorder 3: keep your hands free

The GhostStop EVP Wrist Recorder 3 puts audio recording on your wrist, leaving you free to carry a light, take notes or operate a camera. A sliding switch starts recording, and the color display lets you check the recorder’s status.

Is a wrist recorder right for your kit?

Choose this style when carrying another device is the part of recording you find awkward. Before a first investigation, make a short test clip while standing still, walking and reaching for your other equipment. Listen back so you know what those movements sound like.

A wearable recorder still needs careful use. Keep sleeves and jewelry away from the microphone, and say when you cough, brush against something or change rooms. Those small notes can save a lot of guessing during playback.

Storage and playback

It records WAV files to 8GB of built-in memory and transfers them by USB to Windows or Mac. Battery life and storage duration vary with recording quality; see the product attributes for the published ranges.

Before your first session

Charge the recorder, check the date and time, and confirm that a test recording saves correctly. Start recording without headphones connected: GhostStop’s instructions say headphones connected at startup put the device into playback mode. Use the included earbuds when reviewing a saved file.

Give every recording some context

Keep the original file and work from a copy. Note who was nearby and what else was running in the room. Listen to the surrounding minute rather than repeating only one short sound. An unexplained recording deserves another check; it does not by itself establish a paranormal cause.
