9's battery power lasts longer. Also, its microphones seem better and better positioned--more like ears (on the sides). It also wins hands-down for accessibility. It's also smaller. It's also still being manufactured. That, if anything else, would win me over. Who wants to buy something, even at deep discount, that isn't being made any more? Roland offers a carrying case for the 9, but it's stupid. It looks dumb, the pockets inside are all the wrong size for things you would want to carry--too small for headphones, too big for mikes, too oddd-sized for extra batteries, but maybe not, if you're willing to just plunk them in there and hope for the best. Of course, if you get a strap-on battery pack, you'll have to disconnect and unstrap it from the rest of the unit to store it in the carrying case. The R1's carrying case that comes with it is also dumb. You can't use it from inside the case--hnot that you can with the R09 and its case either, but ... it's just a softpak for carrying it by itself. You can throw it in another case, like a backpack or briefcase or computer bag, but compared to the R09, it's still big and clunky, not to mention hard to operate because of too many buttons. The r9 is far superior in all aspects. I'm just crazy about mine and take it everywhere. Ya never know when a good soundbyte may come your way! _______________________________________________ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.
