i read the forever long thread on this guy. i just have 3 questions before i dive in to buy one. I intend on using this unit for mainly a mobile wav player/file transferring(basically its intended purpose. however my BIGGEST reason for buying is its ability to record to wav with no file size limit, battery life being its demise for recording limitations. i know that the spdif input gives the pop/clicks, but when i use for recording i intend to use the analog input with battery powered mic/preamp rig. so my questions...
1. its my understanding that the unit records flawlessly in analog input with the only degration in sound being the quality of your mics and preamp?
2. i assume you can export your wav file you recorded via usb connection and do not have to spit it out analog or spdif connection? if you do have to export the wav file via analog or spdif outputs does it incur the clicks/pops while doing so?
3. any other reliability issues with this unit just from normal usage?
i would like any other information or comments which you think would be of importance to my needs.
thanks,
Jay
