Last night I did my first field recording, and I have to say this is the stealth dream!

I ran it for 3 hours and there is no problem with the file, but I was unsure of the input levels so I ran it on 10 but that was way to low
But I’m really happy with the quality of the sound.

Here is 2x2 min sample, one up-tempo and one slow.

I had to amplify it 15 dB nothing more.

Up-temp 2,75 MB

Slow 2,84 MB

what mics are you using?  (straight into the R09?)

Oh sorry..

AT853Rx --> PS2 --> R-09

Thanks for sharing your info.  +t    Did you run line-in or mic-in?  I'd guess mic-in since you didn't list any xformers.

Just rolled my first R-09 show. Stealth for Journey/Def Leppard with 4023>sonosax going line in. I recorded a couple files before Journey started and they checked out as 24/48 but sometime between the 2nd file and the start of the Journey set, the R-09 lost my settings and I ended up with the Journey at 16/44.1. The only reason I caught this was because I was looking at the display as I started rolling before Def Leppard and saw the remaining time was 4:57:XX. So I checked the recorder settings and saw that they got reset to 16 and 44.1 and some of the other settings got changed as well. I was able to reset all the settings and start the recording right before the Def Leppard intro music started so at least that seemed to go fine.

I ran the sax at +6dB both sets. The R-09 ended up at input level +16 for Journey and +12 for Def Leppard. I'll post more info after I convert and make sure nothing else happened in addition to the 16/44.1 reset.

so you like the R-9?

can you use a 4GB card with it?

Do you like it better than the r-1?

Man, there really should be an R-09 FAQ posted or something... I know it's a lot of pages to sift through, but I know some of us have been reading every page thus far. Having said that... if I'm wrong on any of the following info, I welcome correction(s).


bluntfortrauma: YES, you can use a 4GB card with the R-09. People are reporting successfully reading/writing to a Transcend 4GB card. The R-09 will NOT format the card; you have to do perform the format under Windows or using a card reader apparently. That part is based on my own understanding from reading other's posts. I do not own a 4GB SD card (yet).

YES, the R-09 has a HOLD switch.

Are the A/D and preamp of the R-09 as quiet as the A/D+preamp of the AD-20?

This a a quote from another thread where I asked for recomendation for my first recorder. My requirements are that it should enable me to make recordings of rather quiet ambience, thus it's preamp and A/D should be very quiet, but it also should be very portable.

The first recommendation was an iriver H120 + AD-20 combination, later my attention got drawn to the R-09 because it would be much smaller and lighter, easier to use. My question therefore:

Are the A/D and preamp of the R-09 comparibly quiet as the A/D+preamp of the AD-20?

Can someone explain to me why R09 can record a "continuous" 4GB wav file (described here)? From what I read in the early MT discussions the max file size of a wav file can only be 2GB. So I am a bit confused.

you can record to whatever the card will hold.  the 2 gig limit is in Soundforge, Wavelab, etc.

When I was reading the MT duscussions a few months ago users were never able go over the 2GB limit when using a 4GB or higher card...you get an auto-split when you reach 2GB .. It's not due to the firmware. Why a continuous 4GB wav file is possible in the R09 and not possible in the MT still confuse me.

Anyone know what the r9 uses for it's filesystem? 

I'm guessing the 2 gig limit for recorders is due to the file system used.  Fat16 is limited to 2gig, but fat32, ntfs, and others can do much more.

I think I read somewhere it was fat32

That's correct, FAT32.  At least when using a 4GB card formatted via computer.  I believe smaller cards formatted using the recorder are also FAT32 but I'd have to check that.

I own an MT and an r09.  The mt can't do this stuff because M-Audio sucks and by extension the mt sucks. That is the real explanation that many don't want to hear.  Not picking on anyone in particular but please don't bring the mt crap discussion into the r09 threads.

Many recorders record 4GB files. This is an m-audio problem. It has nothing to do with the file system. Of course we have already beat that to death in the mt threads  ;)

Just an fyi... I called Roland to see if it was possible to buy the cover without the stand and they said no. I did get the Body Glove case at Best Buy, but I'm not to happy with it really, so if anyone finds another case let us know :)

Oh don't we need to start a new thread too?
