The R-44 portable field recorder from Edirol/Roland is
an ideal choice for videographers, musicians, sound designers, and
more. The ultra-portable unit weighs under three pounds but packs a
number of great features. Record up to four channels of linear PCM
audio at a variety of bit rates and sampling frequencies; up to
24-bit/192kHz!
The recorder offers four XLR/TRS combo jack inputs for great
versatility. The XLR connections have phantom power, allowing you to
use your favorite condenser mic. The R-44 can record to
widely-available SD or SDHC flash memory cards, making it easy to store
and share your audio. Because there are no moving parts, the R-44
delivers silent, reliable operation that you can depend on.
In addition to the input connectors, the R-44 also offers built-in
stereo microphones and monitor speakers, allowing you to record and
play back audio without any additional equipment. What's more, is that
the unit will operate for up to four hours on four AA batteries. You
can also use the AC adaptor, or a four-pin external battery for
powering the device.
Built-in effects include a three-band parametric EQ and a six-band
graphic EQ, a noise gate, compressor, de-esser, limiter, and low-cut
filter. A pre-record function keeps the R-44 listening at all times, so
that when the record button is pressed, the previous few seconds of
audio (selectable) are captured to your memory card.
The R-44 has an easy-to-use interface, complete with a high-contrast
OLED display, perfect for viewing under any conditions. You can also
capture up to eight channels of audio by linking two R-44 units
together. A high-speed USB 2.0 port lets you transfer your audio files
quickly to a Mac or PC.
