Wonder if Plextalk will also then come out with a new desktop version? I would not really consider the ptr2 a desktop player at all. You get a pouch in which you can carry the thing along to your heart's content. -----Original Message----- From: plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Sent: 30 May 2012 05:26 PM To: Plextalk User Discussion List Subject: Re: [Plextalk] PlexPocket's recording capability Wel, some models have 2 stereo microphones, and some even have a third omni directional mic wich you can switch on and off. It is maybe necessary to state that for most people the pocket or something underneeth that would be suited, but for real good recordings and for having as much control over the recording as possible something like zoom or olympus is needed. Those mics are very cencitive and they chrisstal clear. You don't even need a noise filter. They have a low cut filter and limmiter and compressor, depending on the model. And the latest model have line in and also do multi track recording, wich is very important for people like myself who do music. Yes the pocket record in wave, but sometimes you want above cd quality, and olympus can go up to 24/96 khz. I understand why the pocket have the settings it have, its not ment to be such a recorder but maybe a better mic wil do, and yes stereo wil help, but it must be a better type otherwise no difference. But its tru that the manual level control is great, and the level monitor also, although I don't always need it since I can here when it suit my requirements. The bookport desktop sound more like a modern version of the ptr2. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Russ Kiehne" <wb6niu@141.com> To: "Plextalk User Discussion List" <plextalk@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2012 4:18 PM Subject: Re: [Plextalk] PlexPocket's recording capability
What do you like about the olympus over the Pocket for recording?

mic its the best among our players. But I stil use olympus for excelant recordings, but those are mainstream so maybe not to much fitted here.

I agree, when it comes to recording, nothing beats the Pocket.

There is a lot of competition about which players people prefer, but the main reason I have the Plex Pocket is it's recording capabilities. I use the line- in recording. I purchased the PTR1 in 2003, which I used almost everyday. I recently got the Plex pocket and am equally happy with it's recording capability.
