OK, I'll include replies to a couple of messages in this one. Judy, you wrote:

Going to another profile inadvertently is hardly possible, since you have to go into a menu to do that. Keith, you wrote: *To me that's highly significant. If I am interpreting what your saying here, once you have the settings for each program adjusted to your tates you then just need to select the profile you want to record to and your good to go. To me that seems more blind friendly then starteing from scratch every time? It depends. If you do not need more than three profiles,working with the Marantz may indeed be easier than working with the Edirol. But if you for instance, need to sometimes record with the automatic level control and the internal mic, sometimes with the manual recording level control and the internal mic, sometimes with the automatic level control and an external mic and sometimes with the manual recording level control and an external mic, you'd already need four profiles, and if you then sometimes wanted to record via the line-in ... So, if you're happy with three profiles, the 660 should be quite easy to handle. Bob, you wrote: Just wanted to find out a little bit about the machine in question, as the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Canada is using these machines quite extensively in the field. Can't understand why they didn't go with the R09 at half the price. Up to this point they were using the Sony mini disc, and before that they were using Sony cassette recorders. I still have a Sony 850 and a 600 reel to reel recorder that I will be getting rid of very shortly. Well, reporters like to set markers, but the Edirol cannot do that. They also like to have a built-in speaker, not available on the Edirol either. The Edirol is for musicians, it's not made for radio journalists. <*** Michael Lang ***> _______________________________________________ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.
