Review on Digital Voice Recorder Lectures Meetings by Jimmy Hargrove

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not bad overall, this thing holds its own weight well

While this recorder is affordable compared to some scaling options, it can actually work very well. Of course, the mics aren't that good, but they seem to be the same or better than those found on a flagship phone. I'd say "better than" since the microphone's omnidirectional ability seems to work better than using a phone, and you can set the recording format to a fairly high value to prevent compression. Options that can be used to go from 1536kbps WAV to 32kbps compressed MP3 (although I don't know why you want to go that low). I think the lowest should have been 192kbps or 128kbps MP3, but that doesn't matter as you can just ignore the lower settings. You can quickly bookmark parts of a recording by pressing the T-Mark button (up to 10 times) during use, making it easy to come back to those moments. Ideal for lectures and other longer recordings. I would even go so far as to say that you can use this for basic interviewing, or at least as a quick backup in case your mics run into problems. I'm only saying "simple" because you won't be using it for broadcast, but it would be an ideal audio clip for college students and other amateur situations, or maybe some situations in between where the recorded result is close enough to what the original shotgun mic is . would spend. However, to make things better, it has a 3.5mm input for an external microphone, so the quality can be a notch higher depending on the situation. So if a love microphone gives you room for what you want to use it for, you can easily use it to get a perfectly professional result from your recording. This would be great for personal notes and quick conversations that you want to remember later. Or maybe you want to do some private investigation and catch someone in the act. Be that as it may, it works quite well in all of these areas. It may take a few seconds for the recording to start, so plan for this when you're ready to start recording. It's easy to start or stop as it's a fixed switch on the side, not a little button to look for. Switch it up to start recording and down again to stop and save the file. It has a built in speaker so you can play it straight from the recorder (always required for any recorder) or you can plug in your headphones and listen to it privately. Of course, you can quickly transfer everything to the computer since it connects via USB-C and slides out like a flash drive. Your inventory of recording equipment. You have a lot of options, it's well made, it has a solid aluminum body and 32 GB of storage capacity. A wonderful find. ** If our review was helpful to you, please vote below to let us know.
