Voice Operated Recording (VOR) stops the recording during silent pauses, saving valuable recording time, then begins recording again without missing a single syllable because of the digital buffer. Digital Pitch Control and A-B Repeat allows recordings to be heard at slower than normal speeds without distortion to facilitate transcribing and editing, or at faster than normal speeds to move quickly to a desired portion. Selectable Microphone Sensitivity (Hi/Lo) lets you record different situations, from group meetings to individuals, more effectively.

 Awesome recorder September 5, 2008
This recorder is great. I use it during my music class so I can record our session. Mic is sensitive enough to pick up the piano and my voice. It's a little sensitive so I lay it on the piano. Amazingly you don't hear the vibrations from the piano. I love that you can just plug this to your computer via USB and drag and drop the files from the recorder to my PC. This product works well for me. I love it.
 Basically Not Usable, What a Disappointment August 24, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was so thrilled with the idea of being able to record MP3 style. And, to a limited extent, I have been able to do this. But, I was up against my first problem when I went to instruction #1 and could not set the clock properly. Writing tech support was of no help. Now I am finding the instruction manual just does not correlate with how this works, and I am at a loss currently as to how to set the mic sensitivity, how to adjust the volume. I have owned many electronic products, but this is the first time I am up against either/or the manual or tech support being of no help in guiding me how to use this product. Sorry to say, but because of this issue, I am afraid this item will be junked soon. Too bad. It has so much potential. What a waste.
Great features, good value August 13, 2008
I bought this at Frys on sale for 30 percent off the sug. retail price. Unfortunately within the first week, the 4 way selector broke/died as the internal spring mechanism failed rendering this device useless. Thankfully, I simply exchanged it at the store I bought it from. It failed while just being in my pocket but my pockets are full of lots of things.
As others mentioned, the external speaker is junk, but the sound with the supplied earphones is decent and with a good set of ear/head phones, both music and voice recordings sound great. I bought this to create podcasts and make voice notes so having it play/record in mp3 was a main criteria for buying it. The 1gb of memory is plenty for my podcasting needs and for listening to other podcasts and music.
I'm now looking into buying an external mic for this device. I guess it could be considered a bit fragile and the ex. speaker is not good so I'd deducting 1 star for each of these. If it holds up 6 months, I'll add a star and really to be honest, the ex. speaker should be only about a 1/4-1/2 star deduction as you can hook it up to an external speaker source if you want good sound.
The folder/file system is very limited as you cannot have subfolders. Well you can, but the device will not access sub-directories.
This thing is small, well featured, great value, well made (exception noted) and I can recommend this IC recorder.
Excellent Pickup - Could Make File Selection Easier July 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this model for recording public meetings and posting to my blog. The unit's ability to pick up sound is phenomenal, even at the lowest setting. I made 10 recordings of a three hour meeting. But it was difficult to select the folder or file that I wanted that segment to go into. Then it was more time consuming later to track which file contained which section. I had made a list as the meeting went on, trying to denote at least the time signature for each part. It would have been better if I could have had more control over selecting which folder the sound went into.
If the file naming were easier to do, it would have saved time. That was my first attempt, so it could have been my ineptitude more than the model's design. It was extremely easy to upload the files and, since there's no conversion necessary, you can simply edit in audacity, if necessary, and post to your blog.
I've already recommended this model to friends as a great recorder for this price.

I lovethis product! The other reviews claimed the product could not turn off, but there is a power switch, the hold button makes it turn off so the battery does not wear out. Product was in excellent condition. I would buy more from this vendor.
