I really like the new Peak Hold feature. It's much easier to see where your levels are. It was always tough on the R4 when got close to 6db/3db. Does the R4pro have peak hold?

I'm pretty sure it will switch to the AAs if you lose external battery power. It did at least when I unplugged my external battery. I guess it makes the AAs a good emergency power backup

Really interested in runtime for 4xPhantom at 24-bit running on AAs... And whether the DVD batts I've been using for my R4 will work with the R44...

Roland assured me that the wallwarts for the R4 and R44 are interchangeable. Ive also run the R44 without issue on a 9v 5400mah DVD battery.

I can't Imagine AAs lasting very long considering 1 set of mics only lasted about 2 and half hours. Since I've only got one set of mics, I can't test 4xPhantom. DVD batteries will work too.

DVD Batts. That's good news, cause I can get 4+ hours easily with 4xPhantom@24bit on my R4 with the LED on the entire time -- I'd think the R44 would only be better than that without a spinning HD and all...

I'll have my 1st outing with the R-44 Friday. If I catch the opener I'll run 930s>R-44 just to see how the mic-ins are.

I got mine from Sweetwater for $770. I think there was a $100 price increase, but sweetwater honored the pre-order price I was quoted.

Morst mentioned to me that you are also getting a portable hard drive with a card reader built in. Do you have a link to that unit by chance? Seems it would be a great piece to have with the R44.
