Topic: Useless comparison? 722 & Edirol R09he & Sony PCM-M10

To me it sounds like the R-09 is just missing the bass...

Indeed, try it with headphones

I wasn't hassling you BTW, I was just checking that you used the exact same files as the OP. Thanks for putting it up.

As I noted, digital recorders just can't sound that different unless something is wrong.

No worries... I didn't think you were.

Does the R-09 have a bass roll off option? Perhaps that was switched on.

Yes, but it's not that, the phase is also 90 degrees off. Sounds like a dodgy wiring set-up to me. Or recorded in M/S and someone forgot to decode it?

Well, I did (kind of) toss together some cable at the last minute to make this happen, a cable issue could be a problem.  May be next week I will run the R09hr out of the 722 for UM and keep the M10 at home??

Or simply redo the test at home. Playback out of the 722 and into the R09 and M10.
