Average Rating:
Rating: - okay not as expected
The product is okay although reading the instruction should more in depth than it is. I tried it in a class I was taking but the noise it picked up was recorded more than what lecture. I tired every other way. but in less hectic environment it does record okay.
Rating: - Why so many fake reviews?
The reviews of this product smacked of the manufacturer's marketing department hiring interns to post bogus positive reviews. Sure enough, over and over again so many of the 4 and 5 star reviews are by accounts that exist only to have posted the bogus reviews here.
Please, someone who is familiar with similar models by other companies, name other recommendations here. I hate to give business to a manufacturer that engages in such smarmy and deceptive business practices. Much less the red flag that those posting the bogus reviews clearly don't have confidence in their product based ... Read More
Rating: - Cheap, excellent qaulity
Spoken words record and sound excellent. Little backgournd noise. Recording spir of the moment music sessions, like with my guitar, not so great. Still a handy and easy to use recorder with USB. Worth the price!
Rating: - great!!! but not perfect
This is so far the best (cheap) sound recorder I have had. It does what it is suppose to. The menus are easy to navigate and if you read the manual you can find the perfect settings for recording in any situation. the only thing I have to say would that would be negative would be that when I plug in the headphones to listen to my recordings, only the left earbud works. This also happened when I plugged them into my home speakers. With that said, its a pretty decent machine. Software is a bit slow for my taste.
Rating: - Awesome recorder
What an awesome digital recorder! I've used it for several different things, including recording a workshop I attended. With the different folders and indexes available its easy to download recordings to my computer and share them with others. I would definitely recommend this recorder to others.
