this voice recorder is just amazing!You may jot know but...FAST FORWARD AND REWINDEven though it's not stated, you actually can rewind and fast forward, all you do is hold down left or right. Keep that in mind!!SOUND QUALITYThe sound quality is superb, it even works well even if you have it recording in the pocket!USER FRIENDLYit's very easy to use despite some comments saying otherwise. If you know how to work a mobile phone then there is no excuse to say that you can't use this recorder because its much easier.DISPLAYone drawback. It doesnt have a light on the screen which is disappointing! For that one drawback, I will give 4 stars but apart from that. Buy this recorder and forget about all the others youve heard about!Hope this helps.Sound

best by far of three different brands bought around same price

Great item for recording meetings . Very clear play back . Easy to use and the usb is great addition

No complaints with this useful piece of kit

I use this Sony and a similar Olympus digital recorder all the time for interviews. This Sony has a better microphone and range. But my last one died in a pouring rain downfall, so be aware, it doesn't like weather. I nearly had a heart attack when I couldn't find a file to play back but as long as you set the date and time, it's easy to search.Only problem so far is that I haven't worked out if or how to send sound files elsewhere.

I was really happy with this to begin with but I've had some issues with it recently. Especially since the software update. I know these things happen but what I've really been let down by is SONY 'CUSTOMER SUPPORT'. They haven't been able to help at all.I figured out one of the issues on my own as they didn't have really any techical knowledge to speak of. The customer support team basically just send you a generic link which most of the time doesn't even relate to the issue you're experiencing. Not very helpful and it's just become a major pain. Currently my laptop isn't recognising the dictaphone, another issue that's started after the siftware update! NOT RECOMMENDED!!!

Cant really say much other than superb. Small, accepts memory card, good mic, easy to use.I particularly like the "HOLD" button to disable buttons for when being used in a pocket. Is easily capable of picking up voices from the other side of the room. Built in USB, in fact the ONLY downside is the lack of an illuminated lcd.

I needed a device to record everything that is said in a control room for six to eight hours on the trot.Without adding more memory, this device will run for about 50 hours on one set of batteries and record about 50 hours of audio.It's neat that you can press a button to "tag" a location on the recording, so if there's an incident that we will likely want to listen to later, it takes half a second to prod the "tag" button even whilst responding to the incident.It's neat that it has a built-in USB plug so you can't lose the special cable, just slide out the connector and push into the side of your laptop. The supplied audio edit software is ON it so can be installed on any computer FROM the recorder.My only slight gripe is the provided software, whilst good at jumping to the tag positions, is very poor for trying to isolate and save just a selected portion of the recording. Fortunately there are plenty of WAV editing tools on the hairnet.Also this takes regular AAA batteries, it isn't rechargeable. But one pair of batteries last ages, and AAAs are small enough I can carry a pack of ten around with it, low stress.
