Ah what did you not like about the PTR1? I was really looking for cards in 2011 for a PTR2 I was hoping to get from a friend but sadly he couldn't find it. Yeah the 2 is better in that it can use Stereo mikes. So had Justin been able to give me his and had I a card that it liked I'd be using my AT 8022 with it. I liked the R1 for what it was but yeah once you discover stereo you want everything in stereo. So there's that.

I got a ptr1 from a friend in 2007 and used it a couple of times but find it wasn’t so good. So its just a dust collector for me too. I record sometimes with my Iphone and thats ok for voice recording at least. I wish i had money to buy a better player but there are so many things i want. /A > On 12 Sep 2016, at 04:47, Hamit Campos <hamitcam...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi just for grins and giggles I just charged my trusty old PTR1 the > other day and thought man how sad that this $895 device is just > sitting here collecting dust and what not.
