Major question concerning both units is do the menus wrap? Judy

The display window on the Sony has a lot of information packed into it while the display window on the Marantz has easy to read information for those of us with functional vision. The button configuration appears to be well laid out with a ring similar to the Ipod with volume up, volume down and enter in the middle. The Marantz sells for about 300 dollars American, while the Sony comes in at a wapping 500 dollars. I think that the Sony unit has a few bells and whistles such as apitch control and the likes. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Canada is currently using a Marantz digital recorder in the field. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Keith Gillard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 8:46 PM Subject: Re: New flash recorders from Sony and Marantz > Ahh Michael Lang you are truly the connoisseur of fine digital voice > recorders. > > Cheers...Keith > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Michael Lang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "PC Audio Discussion List" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> > Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 6:34 PM > Subject: New flash recorders from Sony and Marantz > > > The new Sony PCM-D50 could be seen as a successor to the Minidisc.
