And I spent ages today trying to find different ways/techniques for recording sound so perhaps I could have a stronger method. No such luck but I rediscovered how to video/record sound on my camera which I can then convert to sound files. Dunno why I did that, just rediscovering
For future rediscovery you just have to press the small video camera picture button next to main button on top of my camera. Then "up" arrow to play it back
