just picked up this bad boy, and i'm on my way to recording whenever and whereever the fuck i want! quality is sick, and the software is so simple. anyone else have one of these, or have any other devices similar to this?
I've actually thought quite a bit about buying one of those... Please let me know what you think of it man... If it's all good, I think I'll be purchasing one in the not too distant future

I've been thinking about getting one, but I just bought a new MacBook which lets me record my set at the same time I'm playing. woohoo..
Congrats

Yeah, I have the laptop option too, but honestly, my laptops take too much of a beating from travel as is, I'm just looking for another option to record nights out...
Plenty of local dj's in Toronto have purchased this little toy, and I purchased it based on their overwhelming positive response. So simple to use, and although a bit pricey (i got mine for $499 cad + $60 for a 2gb card), it comes with editing software, a very quality t-style mic, software, headphones, etc).
I will be recording my first ever demo tonight (likely in 320kbps), and i'll post it in this thread and the dj promo forum for you guys to take a listen - the sound quality is stellar
Sean Miller decided to order one of these www.rolandus.com (edirol R -09), he was recommended this by Satoshi Tomiie. I tried to convince Sean to get the Microtrack, but alas he took Satoshi's recommendation over mine. lol.

lol! that price is just fucking stupid! you could get a fucking cdj-200 for that price! i wouldn't mind having something like this but no way would i pay even half that for something that just records.
You should check out the older Iriver H120 and H140. Can do pretty much all the same things and more, plus it has an optical digital in/out, more capacity 20/40 gigs and is half the cost. I have the H120 and record with it all the time.

Agreed. The R-09 is feature for feature better than the M-Audio. One big downfall to the M-audio is that you can't replace the rechargeable battery without sending it back to them. That's a deal breaker for me! The Edirol is supposedly much better built and has better features. It's also newer (just released a few months back).
Are they worth it? I think so if you're really into recording. Easier than a laptop for playing out, and top notch sound quality and relability. Why risk losing a great set on anything else?
