I am wondering if there are any impressions as to the A>D in the edirol R4?  (any bit depth and sample rate)

Any of you guys run this thing line in yet?  and if so..  what bitdepth and sample rate didcha use?   and    how'd it go?

thanks in advance..

Am I missing something as I only run line-in?

Tonight will be the fifth show on The Black Crowes tour run Stereo X 01 @ 24/48.

The first two were DPA4061 @ 36" spaced > R4, and the next three have been SMS210 > R4, and all sound well to this old ear.

sounds fucking fantastic.

honestly, this box sounds better than expected.

Ah, so Mike had your R-4 @ Hampton. He said it was borrowed, but I didn't make the connection right away.

+T and thanks again for the help Boa.

Can you tell me more about your 9v 6amp battery solution that you did the StereoX02 @ 24/96 ?

It is 3 2ah 9.6v rc car packs (just 8AA's wired up and shrink wrapped) with a home made cable (parts from radio shack) to run all 3 at once with the right tip to plug into the r-4. 8 hours record time, 3 hours to recharge.

I got the batteries from batteryspace.com $25 a 3pack and the charger for another $30

If you search e-bay, they sell slightly cheaper through their e-bay store

Thanks Jason. I am going to give that a try.

Here are my run time test results with AA rechargeables. Props to Boogie for the format.

RUN #1:
======
-8 AA Energizer 2300mah rechargeables
-2 Microtech Gefell SMS210's on 1 & 2 (w/phantom power on)
-2 DPA4061's on 3&4
-24/44.1 StereoX02 recording
-display light on
-battery type set to "nimh"

These went to 1/2 power on the battery meter almost immediately, but stayed that way for the next 1.5 hours.

-"battery low" warning @ 130min
-power failure @ ~140min

RUN #2:
======
-8 AA Powercell 2300mah rechargeables
-2 Microtech Gefell SMS210's on 1 & 2 (w/phantom power on)
-2 DPA4061's on 3 & 4
-24/96 StereoX02 recording
-display light on
-battery type set to "nimh"

-"battery low" warning @ ~160min
-power failure @ ~175min

These were both done with the HD 1/2 filled; A HD check/defrag before the start of a new .WAV is the trick to beating the "media Too Slow"message.

Thanks for the info Boa.

It is amazing the R-4 goes as long as it does on AA's.

its always a good backup plan to carry 8 AAs in the bag w/the R4.  no doubt.
this thing is sooo forgiving when it comes to power requirements.  love it.

Has anyone tried running this on the Walmart l-ion battery yet?

I whipped out the Visa yesterday and bought one (24 bit snobbery here I come)!

I've got a ton of Energizer rechargeable AAs, but I'd like to rig some type of external pack as well.

Way To Go Nick! +T  Thats awesome. I also am looking at an external power source so I will keep you in the loop if I am successful.

Thanks for the package - it arrived safely and sure is a nice stash  8)
