How can it be so easy

I just recorded a couple of live sessions with an 8 piece band then again with just my Bass player and myself. I am pretty impressed with the sound and how easy it was to download into my computer. Thanks for making a great hand held recorder.

Amazing

This product is really good. Recording quality is amazing! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a decent hand held recorder. I currently use this to record our church sermons(line out on the board to line in on recorder).

Great Machine

Seriously. For the price you can't beat it. I'm a TD at a performing Arts Center. I bought this as a toy and have been really impressed with the quality of the recordings and design of the data storage. It's a simple drag and drop onto your computer once connected.
If your reading this, you should buy this. You won't regret it.
A+

Amazing!!!

5 Stars for this little wonder!!! Great for live recording with crystal clear results. Can also do inline recordings which obviously come out even better!! An excellent choice for a middle class user, not at all amatuerish but at a very affordable price. I only wish I had bought mine on sale.

Great recorder.

This is a great recorder; especially for a novice in this area. The manual was readable and precise and allowed me to get going immediately. A great item!

DR-05

I found the DR-05 a great little unit for a great price and is perfect for those live gigs you don't want to lose because of not having the time for set up, the DR-05 can be up and ready to go in a couple of minutes.
It is also a must for songwriters to help keep track of those bits and pieces of songs you come up with day or night that you don't want to forget, or record an arrangement that you don't want to lose before you get it down on Pro-tools.
The sound is great and with a little reading easy to use.
Great tool, Great price and a Great sound.

Recording quality good, ease of use good...but...

much larger than I expected. I own the Yamaha which is much smaller. Make sure you use the manual to understand. When you first record the volume level is set much too low. You must change the record volume setting, not just raise the volume.
