If you're looking for a great EVP recorder ...

...then this is it! Or at least one of the best. Other than that - it's not good for much else - at least from what I hear. But all I use it for is for EVP recording. For those morbidly curious people like me - who just have to know what's in the...

Terrible

 

Terrible

Even with external mics, this recorder is so noisy that you can barely hear anything. I can't believe I wasted money on this! It doesn't work at all practically. If you are considering a recorder, look at anything but Sony. If you are looking for...

Decent recorder with great capacity

 

Decent recorder with great capacity

I bought one of these probably a year or two ago and at the time the 150 minute capacity far exceeded any others in the price range. I purchased it specifically for doing mystery shopping evaluations and it has worked well for this task about 80% of...

Disappointing

 

Disappointing

On the plus side, it's very compact and light, and it looks pretty. However, some of the controls are very small and don't respond immediately (there's a delay of about one second); the display is tiny so you need good eyes or strong glasses; it can't...

good price, very compact but poor sound quality

 

good price, very compact but poor sound quality

You can store up to 200 messages, total time of 150 minutes, so if you use this as a personal message recorder, average message length about a minute, this is great. However, there is no way you can record meetings with this. It has really great...
