The EDIROL R-09HR field recorder is a complete recording package and the follow up to the hugely successful R-09 (which sold a staggering 100,000 units). The R-09HR features a host of outstanding new features including recording up to 24-bit/96kHz, a low noise floor, and great battery life. A new software update is available, version 1.04, which actually improves the signal-to-noise ratio for 88.2 and 96kHz recording and playback, and also provides support for SDHC cards up to 32GB. The update is a free download for registered users.
