Audio Books

We are (slowly) getting ready to produce audio books in DAISY format, as recommended by the RNIB, but the required equipment list is getting longer by the minute. Often it is the basic things that stump one. What now would be the best equipment for readers to record onto, given that cassette recorders have gone the way of all things analogue? Do we opt for personal digital recorders? Which would be best for voice recording? Can we input the recordings directly into the Mac for monitoring of sound levels? Is there someone out there who can advise us, or is it time for wet towels round the head? So many questions, but how important it is to remember visually impaired people need access to books just as the sighted do.
