Hi Krister, that's right, you would really use the R-1 for in the field kind of recording, and do your editing on a PC. For audio quality, this is great because you don't lose any quality at all. As for a full flash card, I've not experienced that since I have a 4 GB card which gives me about six hours at CD quality, which is more than enough before I can get to a PC and transfer it over. Of course, you can record in 192 KBPS mp3 and get even longer still. Whatever you go for, I think a flash-disk based recorder is a much better bet than MD.

Subject: Re: flash card recorder Hi Jonathan, You can not edit your files on the unit itself, right? and another somewhat silly question maybe, how do you know when a flash card is full? I take it you monitor your recordings with head phones, and in that case it's no probs, since i take it the sound suddenly disappears, but does the unit give any audible feedback such as a beep or such when for example the flash card is full or the battery has run out? And as i understood from the review, you can't really punch in/out of a recording with the R1, or am i wrong there? Otherwise it seems easy to use for blind folks, so maybe i'll go for that in the end. /Krister Jonathan Mosen wrote: > Hi Krister, I am not sure why anyone would go for Minidisc anymore. > With the R-1, I can record in uncompressed wav format right onto a > compact flash card, and then work with that in Sound Forge or Stuio > Recorder.
