Check out the Tascam DR-07 Digital Audio Recorder. Bit depth is therefore the "width" of what we are recording (or the y-axis). You need a digital voice recorder that can be bought any almost any good electronic discount place like Best Buy. These productions include students of all ages--grammar school through 9th grade.
