Fabulous Little Recorder October 5, 2008

I'm so happy with this product. It was a bit pricey but worth every penny. I can record my voice lessons, burn them to CD and take them with me in the car for review and practice. I'm certain I've only scratched the surface of possible applications for this incredible device. Thanks, Roland!!!

Best little bit bucket out there... September 30, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I've just returned from a 10-day study tour in Israel, where the Edirol R-09HR (with a foam wind gag designed for a Shure SM-58 microphone over the mics) performed admirably. I brought back 30+ hours of iPod-ready tour commentary by our guide, Yoni, recorded in MP3 format. The R-09 ran 6-7 hours a day on a set of NiMH Eveready rechargables, and it never missed a beat. It was often in the dust, never in the way, and the Shure wind gag tamed the noise from the top of Masada to the Golan Heights. I was impressed by its predecessor on both live music recording (with the onboard mics and with my RODE NT-4 stereo mic), and with its seamless 24-bit capture of "board mixes." The interface improvements (better battery door design, rubberized finish, and the plastic stand) are all well done. I do audio for a living, and this is a sweet little piece of gear.

Very pleased with Edirol R-09HR September 24, 2008

I am delighted with this product. I use it for recording my hypnosis sessions as well as for creating motivational recordings for my clients. I am not a techie and find it easy to use. Two weeks ago I recorded rain falling in my local forest intermixed with the occasional bird song. I looped the 2 minute recording for a 30 minute playback - believe it or not a great recording for sleeping to.!!

Amazing STudio Recorder September 13, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I purchased the Edirol R09HR to use for classic piano practice recording. I needed an accurate recorder that would reveal every detail and sound quality to enable critical review. This recorder is truly remarkable. It is brutally honest at revealing mistakes and timing for my playing. It is less harsh than the Sony and Olympus products that are currently available probably because of the microphones. True Studio recording would require a studio mic, but most users will not hear the difference. I am using Crucial 4GB SDHC cards to good success.

As a fiddle player who often learns new tunes by ear, a decent, small recorder that works seamlessly with a Macintosh computer has long been on my wish list. After a lot of research, I chose the Edirol R-09HR. Right out of the box I was immediately impressed with the look and "feel" of it. All but the screen, controls and microphones are encased in a "rubberized," no-slip, no-scratch, covering which gives it a secure feeling in the hand. Both the "Practical Guide" and "Owner's Manual" were easy to follow and we had the optional 8 GB SD card (it comes with a 512 MB card) formatted and were up and running with test recordings within a half hour. The Edirol is equipped with tiny built-in speakers which are helpful for checking a recording, if needed, without plugging in earphones or external speakers. Both MP3 and WAV files are easily downloaded to our Mac (OS X Leopard) with the supplied USB 2 cable. No fuss, it just works! Plug it in and the recorder's disk pops up on the screen. (The manual advises using the A/C power cord for PC downloading to prolong the life of the recorder's two AA batteries.) Doubleclicking the disk icon shows the list of recorded tunes, any of which can be played/downloaded to iTunes by doubleclicking the file. If a tune needs editing, the file can be easily opened with Garage Band, (or Amadeus Pro, sound-editor/recorder software I've owned for years). A CD including editing software for Windows PCs comes packaged with the Edirol R-09HR. For registration purposes, it would have been nice if the registration number had been easier to locate. But a quick email to support folks and I had an answer in about an hour (it's in the battery compartment!). Is that good support or what? It goes without saying I am totally happy with my purchase.
