portable digital recorders

Can you offer any advise to me about which of the current crop of portable digital recorders offers the highest quality sound recordings............least hiss and noise.............particularly if i were using it to capture natural sounds such as waves, birdsong etc where ther might be a fair bit of background windnoise.......would it be the H$? or the Edirol? or something else?...........thankyou,

MICHAEL BARRETT: Hi. I'm Michael Barrett from Roland and Edirol. We have a great new product. It's the Edirol R-09 Field Recorder. It's very, very portable. It's got a lanyard built on here. I can take it with me anywhere I go. I can use I for recording musical ideas. I can use it for recording narrations, business meetings, etc. This is one of the first 24-bit recorders that can record at 48 kHz, 44 kHz, and all the MP3 settings from 320 kilobits per second all the way down to 64 kilobits per second.

It has an optical digital out which doubles as the earphone, built-in stereo mics right here, microphone and line inputs on this function, microphone can power 5-volt phantom power supplied mics, and the storage is right here. It's under SD memory right here. When you put up to 2 GB card into this and hook it up through USB to the computer to exchange file formats. It has a new graphic screen right here. I'll go ahead and push play, and you can see the graphic screen. It has playback reverb that I can turn on and hear a source in reverb. It has AB repeat so I can repeat from one point to another to practice over if I would.

The functionality of record is very, very easy. All I have to do ispush the record button and we're recording stereo, left or right.

We also have a few options for the R-09 and this is the condenser here, condenser microphone, on/off switch where you can just plug right into the mic input. It comes with a stand. We have the accessory bag for it. It can be hooked to the belt or hung from the lanyard, and it comes with this cute little tripod accessory we can screw in and make a nice tripod for the recorder and go at it however we like and let it record, put one button push. All right. Thank you.

I need awesome gear... I'd like a free gear catalog!
My opinion is awesome. I'd like to take a gear survey
