This little machine is quite simply brilliant. I bought it to record my own practise of Russian romantic piano music, so lots of notes and a huge dynamic range. The Edirol R-09HR copes with the challenge magnificently just using the inbuilt microphone. The playback quality on the machine\'s own loudspeakers is of course, when one considers the size of the thing, not brilliant, but through headphones or external speakers it is astoundingly good. One can safely ditch one\'s old recording equipment. Delivery was very prompt too.

i wish i\'d got one of these ages ago, the recording quality is great, its proper easy to use. One press of \'record\' puts you on standby to check your levels and then the second press and you are off.. this is ideal for me as i improvise all my lyrics and the spontaneity of my songs means that i usually get me best ideas in someones front room after a gig, miles from studio equipment. The edirol r-09hr is the perfect thing for boshing down an idea when it\'s fresh and uncluttered by too much thought or preparation, truly punk rock. i just keep it in me guitar case all the time now and never lose those little gems of ideas that pop out. The quality is so good that you can play a new song, decent enough to bung it straight on your myspace or onto cd without killing the creative flow by goin home, settin up mics and getting bogged down in the technical side. For an example of the recording quality listen to \'BOB THE AMAZING SHEEPDOG\' at www.myspace.com/CAPTAINHOTKNIVES it stands up fine against other songs recorded in me small studio. If you wanna capture those never to be repeated nuggets of random inspiration this is the songwriters notebook for people who don\'t write things down.

Excellent product. Very easy to use and well designed. I use this for live music backing in pubs and clubs instead of mini disc now. I received it two days after ordering over the christmas period. Very good service.

Edirol R-09HR Including Free 4GB SD Card

I purchased this unit having compared similar units on line, and my expectations have been exceeded.
The Edirol R-09HR is beautifully compact and easy to use. The performance of the built-in mocrophones is amazing, producing good results in a variety of challenging situations. I have used it to recored a live rock band in a relatively small room and also brass and vocals in church settings. The sensitivity and absence of background noise result in recordings of excellent clarity, given the respective situations.
Battery life is more than adequate, and the 4GB SD card gives excellent recording capacity. The unit feels solid, though the level and volume buttons are a bit fiddly until you get used to them. The input sockets (for external mic and line signal) are 3.5mm jacks rather than XLR, though fitting the latter would result in a much bigger unit, which would defeat the object of having a pocket-sized recorder. There is a built-in monitor speaker but this is really only to check that you have made the recording - to check on the quality and detail headphones are required.
I like the rubberised surface coating, the clear LCD display and the easy-to-use menu system.
My only criticism is not with the unit itself, but with the cost of the accessories - £40 is a but steep just to get the useful tripod mount. Also, the bundled software has a trial version of a useful MP3 endcoder, but the full version has to be purchased for an additional £6! Seems a bit mean really, but don\'t let that put you off buying this unit.

I've been looking for a Wave/MP3 recorder for some time now. Tried the Tascam DR-1 and took it back - recordings too dry and clinical, low output volume on wave files, too much hiss on higher gain mic setting, poor MP3 music playback (gives an indication of internal component quality)

Also looked at the Zoom H4 - sounded good but gee it\'s ugly and a bit too complicated to use. I didn\'t need the 4 track functions etc either and it also had a cheap, nasty feel and build quality to it. I felt it would prove unreliable.

Sound quality is paramount for my application - recording Meditations for students which can become very softly spoken - so low background noise and hiss is vital. I needed a recorder to replace and out perform my Sony MZ-RH1.

The Edirol R-09 HR exceeds my expectations and I am astonished and delighted with its perfomance.

The remote control is a real boon for starting and stopping recordings without having to handle the unit which would create noise on the internal mics and it also allows me to remain quiet and stationary whilst recording the meditation live to the class.

A silent noise floor, quality built in Mics, superb recording quality, monitoring and playback and excellent MP3 music playback too - suggesting quality components and attention to detail. Beautiful.

Some say the unit is ugly. I find it functional, very easy to use and not at all ugly.

I love this recorder. There\'s a sense of depth, precision and musicality to the quality of everything I've recorded so far, Meditations, Bird song and flute and clarinet playing with friends.

Excellent service from Dolphin. Thanks also to Andrew at Dolphin who, on the phone, answered a couple of my questions in a knowledgable and friendly way.. Received the unit next day and it came with a 2gig card as well as a 512meg card.

Very happy.
