Depends on the settings of that metal detector. FWIW the Sony M10 generally doesn't set them off.
These days, it's also not a bad strategy to not hide it and just plug some headphones into the thing and say it's an MP3 player, which is technically is.
Half the time I think people think the M10 is a cel phone......
Tonight i went to a show in buffalo and they had walk thru metal detectors which was a surprise to me as they never had them before,i had the Sony M10,UBB,AT 933 stashed away and the detector went off,i wonder if its the batteries setting it off? 2 aa akaline and a 9 volt.
Does it make any difference if the metal is spread out IE batts and such on different areas of your person ?

So, once they found out it was an audio recorder, they just let you in no problem?

One of many ways.
I have screws in my body. I wear a knee brace and pocket full of change.
I'd feel like a smuck using a wheel chair. Know what I mean?
