2gb SD Card = @ 21/2 Hours Recording (regardless of 24-Bit or 16-Bit according to them)

That's a pretty clear sign the person you spoke with had no idea what they were talking about, isn't it?

Craig

yup.

However, this thing looks pretty sweet to me especially since I've been burning DVD-As since I got the R1.  If I can record at 48khz, then its right into the Audio DVD Creator program without upsampling, and I can play them on any DVD player - not just ones that will play DVD-A. 

My main criticism of the R-1 was that it was capped at 44.1khz....

Just got off the phone with Edirol/Roland and here is what I found out:

Balanced 1/8" Input = Yes
2gb SD Card = @ 21/2 Hours Recording (regardless of 24-Bit or 16-Bit according to them)
Monitor Recording Levels = YES!!!
ADC = Same As R1
Uses AA or AA mah rechargeables
Firmware updates are planned if there are any initial bugs and probable to allow 4gb SD card too


looks like i may pick one of these up...

man!!! here i was with my hopes up, seeing that there were new posts in this thread, but it's not too much "new" information. doh! i'm jonesing for this device more than i was for the MicroTrack (before it came out).

assuming the R-09 and SD cards require roughly the same amount of space for formatting the memory card, then you'd get the following with a 2 GB SD card:

3 hours 8 minutes at 16-bit
2 hours 5 minutes at 24-bit


hopefully the unit will accept 4 GB SD cards out of the box, or with a quick firmware update. not that 16-bit is bad, but it's nice to have the option of recording at 24-bit without physically swapping out memory cards.

April release


Below is a link for Edirol's demo at the NAMM06.  Nice video.  The R09 is the third selection down the page.  In the demo, the rep says work has begun for this puppy to accept 4gb cards.  Niceness.

This thing has the approximate thickness of a JB3, but the square shape makes it easier to slip into a pocket.

Anyone know if an 8gb SD card exists, I looked around and didnt see any.

It is nice to have an 8gb for festivals and such that I am using in my R1

The price for the R9 here in Sweden is set to roughly 400usd ex tax.
It is said to be shipping in April here.

That should give the europeans on the board an idea on what´s going on here on our side of the pond.

Another NAMM review
http://createdigitalmusic.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1130&Itemid=44

in this review i can read that r09 provide phantom power!! it's this true?? because this change the rules!!

Quote
Phantom power: A controversial element of the MicroTrack was its inability to put out a full 48V phantom power for mics. Not a huge issue given the target market, but Edirol said they have true 48V phantom power on the R-09. That spec isn't on the Roland website, though, so the jury's still out.

i watched one of the NAMM video reviews last night, and while he was breezing through the features, i could have sworn the guy said 'FIVE volts of phantom power'.  i don't know anything that runs on 5v of power, so i either misheard the reviewer, the reviewer misspoke, or roland systems is on crack.

That is a good thing.  Most portible units use 3 volts of Phantom.  Most electret condenser mics need a bias voltage between 1.5v and 12v.  The closer you get to 12v the better your mics will sound (increased dynamic range, higher SPLs).  A 5v PIP will be plenty to power many mics.

I believe he misspoke.  Like the R-1, this puppy will have the recommendation of running a preamp out in front.  I think 5V is really external powering.

I'm a lot less impressed after watching the video than I hoped I would be (although I do love that screen!)...the demo just made it even more glaringly obvious to me how many ways it falls short of the MT for everything that it did right. Is it that hard for someone to take a step forward in designing these things without taking two back???
