Reviews

Easy To Use, Good Features
The recorder is easy to navigate and records well. Has features like compression, noise reduction, limiter, and low cut which help in different recording situations. I like the overdub feature. It's a good recorder to get ideas down or to record rehearsals.
Music background: Professional
not what I thought
I thought it was a recorder, which it is, but I tried to record and when I played it back I could hardly hear it. So I purchased something I didn't know what it was for. I gave it a 4 star because it is well built and if someone knows what to do with it I would bet it works as advertised
Everything records with wobbly reverb sound
I have turned all the recording effects off and I still get a weird wobbly hall reverb effect sound on everything I record from my keyboard, whether through the line in coming from my mixer (also no using no reverb pr similar effects) or through the built in mics using my studio monitor speakers. When I'm playing it sounds fine through my speakers or headphones, even through ear buds off the recorder line out, but the recorded playbacks all have the same problem. Wish I hadn't bought it and won't buy anything else from this brand.
Music background: Pianist/Keyboardist (60+ yrs)
