The only thing I don't like about this recorder is the lack of a digital input.  Is there anything comparable that has a digital in?

discussed many times.

sony d50 has the optical cable input as well as 16 bit iriver and hi-md recorders. the pmd 661 and pmd 671 are both 24 bit.
personally, if you want digital input, I would consider the r-44 since the d50 is only optical and the 661 and 671 are pricey new...although you could probably find them for a good price on the board.

Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth.

I just noticed that B&H Photo Video is selling the Sony PCM-M10 this morning for $199.  You have to add the item to the shopping cart to see the low price.

Yesterday, B&H's price was $251.  So the $199 price may not last long.

Thanks for this...I just called Musicians Friend and got them to credit me the difference plus an extra 10% between what I paid there and the bh photo price. So after all is said and done I paid $197. Not bad. Now to apply for the free case.

A friend of mine just picked one of these up and she is now in need of a few 16gb memory cards, any recommendations?

I picked up a 16 gig card a few weeks ago on Amazon that someone posted a link to here for 20$. I think the price will be dropping for these soon if you keep looking for deals. I would recommend against getting some of the cheap ones on ebay.

Thanks for the post...I just purchased one...seeking advice on best way to run my naks into this deck ?

Can I run them directly into the deck via  xlr to mini plug mic in ?  or would I be better off feeding them from my mx-100 via rca ->mini 1/8 - Line in ?

Thanks

Here's the link for the free case:

https://www.rebate-zone.com/default.asp?PN=SY00122k7&DirectID=32746

Is this free case supposed to be only for business-related purchases of the M10?  It's asking me for my business name and business type, and won't let me get any further without picking one and giving them a name.

I just made up a name for my company.

Always handy to have that around for various deals anyway.

Goes along with having a pre-prepared alias...mine is Fabrizo Garcia, BTW.  :P

M10 has quiet mic preamp with +2 dBu mic input clean handling level so no need for using external preamp for even very hot output mics. 

Using a dual XLR to miniplug patch is all that's needed, and if looking for highest quality adapter, my company makes one of the best with molded (will not stress deck's mic input jack) right-angle plug (this hard gold plated over nickel) shown on my site at: http://www.sonicstudios.com/access.htm#adapters

The online rebate is probably for businesses, but you can mail it in. Is the case any good? Has anyone seen this case?

I don't think a class 2 card (the slowest cards) would have any performance problems, but faster cards would finalize files and transfer more rapidly, so I'm thinking class 4 or 6 will save transfer time and be worth the extra bux. Plus prices will always come down on these things, and the 8GB class 6 costs less than 16GB class 2.

Pardon while I reason out loud. I have to talk myself into this. BTW, this has a line input that can handle a hot signal, right? The Zoom H2 and M-Audio Microtrack 24/96 can NOT handle line level, though the M-Audio is not as bad as the H2.

Guysonic, Morst

sorry for my ignorance but hot mic is not the same as saying phantom power? ??? and the Sony M-10 does not support that....
