What do you want in a handheld recorder? Premium sound quality? Convenience? Features? You get all three with Korg's amazing MR-2! This little number lets you capture unbelievably high-quality audio without the hassle of an involved setup.

What Makes a Product a "Demo"?
At Sweetwater, "Demo" usually means one of the following:
  • It might have spent a little time in our display room.
  • A Sales Engineer may have put it through its paces to explain it to customers.
  • It could have been tried out for a few days.
We treat demo models exactly as we treat new gear. You get a full manufacturer's warranty, as well as Sweetwater's commitment to customer satisfaction. Other than it having been in someone's hands or hanging on a rack for a brief period of time, it's as good as new - at a great bargain!

Please note that this product is available in limited or single quantities.

Everything was exactly as promised. I was impressed with the phone call I received from your guy when I had just placed the order. He was very thorough and professional in every way. I love my new digital piano. Your wide selection and excellent service as well as your "3 Payment Plan" and the 2 year warranty sealed the deal for me on this purchase. No one else could come close.
