It seems, that they don't sell it in europe or maybe it'll be here delayed, because they told me to ask Olympus America for further informations. If it'll be sold here in germany in the near future, they would have been told me so (maybe they simply don't know it better).

Not in europe? Dang..  :banging head:

The indomitable forces of global capitalism will ensure that some get over here to the Netherlands, Nixoo... ;)

For Olympus, the "hold" function is basically to turn power off completely.  Otherwise, the buttons will bring it alive or it could be in a mode to voice activate.  So the "Power Hold" switch is just the power switch...not a "Pause" function.   At least that describes it as it is implemented on other Olympus recorders.

Hope this will answer some of your questions regarding this recorder:

Actually, the hold function will not turn off the recorder. It is a similar switch as the MR-1. If you press down it will power on and if you click upward it will act as a hold switch.

The pictures does not really show much but there is also a "pause" option. If you press the REC it will not record straight away but will be in REC pause mode. You need to press the REC again to start recording. If you press the REC during recording it will pause the recording.

The remote is planned to be released in the Spring of 2008 so you have to wait a little longer.

You can adjust the brightness and contrast on the monitor.

There's a few extra features, which I will not go into.

Scyue,

Obviously you have preview information about this recorder.
Did you see it at CES?

Can you (or anyone else) confirm that the "late January"
release date is still likely?  Or has the release slipped to March?

I don't know if it will be release on time. But what I do know is it will also be released worldwide including Europe (but not the same time). No I didn't go to CES. Another interesting info good for you is it can take 5V external battery like the MT and MR-1, but I doubt you need it because it runs for many more hours than any of the recorders in the market.

"it runs for many more hours than any of the recorders in the market."

Maybe modify this statement to say "than any of the recorders that use two AAs for power."  Olympus claims up to 12 hours of battery life while recording.  The Sony PCM-D50 can match that, but it carries 4 AAs.

Others have made disparaging remarks about Olympus because until now they have focused on gear for dictation and notes-taking.  Instead, I see a company that has worked hard to create reliable and easy-to-use audio recording equipment.  I think their step up to "semi-pro" music recorder will be successful.

Scyue, any idea how many volts of plug-in power the LS-10 will provide to mics?

It's been almost two weeks since the last post - anybody have any news?

I really like my Olympus DS-30 Voice Recorder and carry it a lot.  This would be a nice upgrade from that and a nice backup to my main Field Recorder (D-50) and for when I don't have it with me and something spontaneous pops up.

I made a recent call to Olympus and was told it would be late February-early March for release. Also, they apparently will not post the manual online until release.

In Canada, Olympus doesn't have very good distribution. These units might end up being sold in camera stores, i.e., Henry's, etc.

The manual is now online

   http://www.olympusamerica.com/files/LS-10_Instructions_EN.pdf

Thanks.

Here is something I saw at a quick glance:  "If you are recording into a file and the batteries run out, you will lose your currently recorded file because the file header will not be able to close."

This manual is a bit light on the specs.  Nothing about the internal mics or how many volts of plug-in power or that sort of thing.

I am curious to see one of these.  It's really small...

HI This is one of the smallest 24 bit recorders I've seen. If they added a digital-in it will be too good. Just hope by next year a company makes one as small as this with digital-in.
