I found yet another video overview of the Sony PCM-D50 digital audio recorder. Producer’s Edge Magazine recorded this 10 minute video with a Sony rep at the AES show. Here are a few highlights:
- A/B repeat feature for musicians. You can set a start and end point and have the recorder play the select audio in a loop.
- Digital pitch control
- Pre-record
- 2 hours of record time at 24 bit, 96KHz resolution using the built-in 4GB of memory
- Memory stick expansion
- 4 AA batteries run for 14 hours (He removes the battery tray to show how it slides in and out of the recorder)
- Shows the XLR-1 mic adapter, which makes the unit look a bit frightening (and hard to hold in one hand)
- Low cut filter
- Same limiter feature as the PCM-D50
- No MP3 recording
