I was disappointed the DR-60D didn't come with a felt bag like the DR-2D did.Time to find a crown royal bag....
Specs say up the 32gb supported. Has anyone tried a 64gb card for shits and giggles?
So I bit on a DR-60D when B&H had their $150 deal. Got it our this past week for the first time and gotta say I like the design of the device. 2 big issues/questions. 1 - The level knobs are easy to bump and offer very little resistance to turning so it could be very easy to mess up levels on accident.2 - Battery life on internal AAs was terrible. I was running MBHOs>DR60D with 48v Phantom and was down to 1 bar left after less than a 2 hour show starting with brand new Energizer alkalines. Had me sweating it a bit. Sounds like most people here are running USB based external batts. Just want to confirm my experience with the AAs is normal and I didn't miss something obvious that caused my high power consumption. Looks like I'll have to run the external in the future.

I noticed those same things when I had my first outing with the DR-60D. > http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=161501.msg2084094#msg2084094But aside from a few quirks it's a great, and inexpensive, little deck.
