<p>A digital recording center (10) having a removable playback module (20) for permanently capturing a human voice or other sounds into a compact module for playback within a greeting card or photograph. A recording center (10) having a microphone (19) (or other audio input device) is used to record a brief message, in a digital fashion, for loading into a playback module (20). Before loading the message into the playback module (20), the customer may listen through a speaker (17) to determine if his message as recorded sounds proper. If the temporarily recorded message is in good form, the customer activates a transfer command button (40) and the message is non-volatilly stored in the removable playback module (20). The playback module (20) may be placed into a compartment (48) within a greeting card or picture (46), ornament, a stuffed animal or doll, or even a dog tag.</p> |
