Can you tell me if the device shows a graphic of the current input volume so that you know if you are clipping (i.e., going over 0dB)?

Currently I'm using the...

Would anyone be so kind as to answer this question? I'd also like to know. Is the line-in recording volume (gain) adjustable? If so, is it adjustable on-the-fly (i.e., while recording)?

A terrible eBay Pilot seller - do not purchase from "Global Trader"

Since the Pilot is no longer sold by Best Buy, I turned to eBay to buy one.

I used the seller "Global Trader" who has a large number of Pilots:

How would you guys sync a 40GB library to the Pilot's two 8GB drives?

I'm sure there are lots of people here with the same problem but I can't figure out how you might be dealing with it!
