Hello,
I'm a newbie, this is my first post!
I have tried to find anything on this forum, but nothing that remember my "problem".
I need a very lightweight and portable gear, so I bought a new Edirol R-09.
Now, I have a "problem" with my 5-days-old Edirol R-09.
During the week-end, I have begun to use it (with internal mics); everything seems ok, but my look has fallen on the VU-meter: R channel was higher than L channel, about 2-3 dB.
I have tried to change position, etc, but again, R channel results higher that L channel.
In every situations, R channel is higher than L channel!
So I have tried to record in front of a speaker (about 20 cm) during a CD playing and again the same results.
I have used a CD test with various audio test (sinewaves at different frequencies and white noise).
The difference is visible during the REC and, of course, during the playback.
I exclude a wrong settings of the VU-meter because I have seen the difference in WaveLab during the playback, too.
So, I suppose that the internal mic have different sensitivity (or the preamp are not exactly identical).
Can I consider the "problem" within a normal tolerance or...
I'm really start to be worried?
Thank You
