Anyone having trouble with bluetooth on iphone? Perhaps it's the latest software update for the phone but I cannot get the recorder to show up as a device.

Edit: I tried resetting the device but the only thing that worked was removing the Rec Remote app from my phone and downloading it again. I still can't get it to pair with my computer so  :smash:

Turn on wifi, Bluetooth and NFC. It should connect and then you can turn one off at a time to determine which ones are required. I found it varies from phone to phone

It would be nice to see a 32bit version now that the PCM A10 is discontinued.

It's odd that they discontinued the A10 without a replacement — the M10 didn't go away until the A10 was introduced, did it?

I've always liked Sony recorders!  I'm hoping they have a follow up to the A10.  I would be fine with a 32bit A10 to be honest.

I switched back to a DR-2d and I must say the A10 produced quite a lot of hiss.

Have you tried recording the same show with both?

You must have had a dud unit.  2D was on the noisier side of things for me.

I'd kill for a 32 bit A10. I think that is what is deterring me from using the chopped A10s I have and still use the Oade Concert Modded M10s. M10 still gives the feel of a Sony DAT for me. Especially when stealthing.
