Hi Amro,
The Roland you are talking about is the Edirol R-09, and it is pretty darned
good. You can't put speech on it, but for the most part, it is very
accessible, primarily because it only has seven menu items in the main menu,
and they don't wrap. So when you get to the bottom, you stay at the bottom.
Go to http://www.blindcooltech.com, and you can hear lots about the R-09. I
have one, and I don't go anywhere without it, because it is so small. It is
not much bigger than an average mobile phone.
All the best

Subject: [access-uk] Portable audio recorders
Hi all,
I'm looking for suggestions on the following from quality and accessibility
point of view please. I'm after a portable music recorder to record our band
rehearsals and gigs for later reviewing. So I'd like the device to be a high
quality, or at least decent, audio recorder device. I want to use the device
as my MP3 player on the go too.
If memory serves, there was a mention of a quite good new portable audio
recorder from Roland on this list not long ago? Could someone remind me what
model it was?
Possible candidates I've come across so far are:
a. the Archos Jukebox Recorder and MP3 player 20GB. This one sounds decent
and I think Rockbox can be installed on it? On the Rockbox site it says
"Jukebox Recorder V2", is that the same device? Has anyone tried it to
record music?
b. The Milestone from RNIB. From previous talk on this list, I think that
this is not the kind of thing I'm looking for? I couldn't find a grate deal
of info about it on the RNIB website.
Any ideas or suggestions will be most welcomed!
AmroB
