Based on the simple statement in the rules that astral perception can't
be recorded I'm inclinded to believe that simsense recorders directly
record the sensory information before it's processed by the brain.
However, I wouldn't be suprised if there's a comment in the rules that
says otherwise :)

But you gotta admit, it goes a long way towards providing a clearer
understanding of how astral perception works.
