Review on Sony ICDUX560BLK Digital Voice Recorder by Frank Ridl

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing little voice recorder the best I've seen and I've seen a lot

This little voice recorder I mean SMALL is amazing. When I ordered it I thought it would be twice the size. I've been a writer and editor for many years and this recorder is really something special. I wanted conversations and meetings to be recorded so I could use the information to write stories. I can put it in my shirt pocket and effortlessly record everything that's happening in the room, probably thanks to the stereo microphones. This is done with the software you install on your computer and play back the recording - lots of control at multiple speeds, you can slow down the conversation to make it easier to understand. I lost hearing in my right ear in 1991 due to a nearby explosion during the Gulf War. This little device really saved my work, I might miss something during a call or a meeting, but it allows me to play and add to whatever I missed. CONS: I am concerned that this device has internal batteries - what happens when they no longer charge? I had similar recorders from Olympic and Sony, but they didn't go together at all.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some bugs
