Thanks for your report on the R16, Mike. This is and interesting part, but just too much stuff for most of my applications. The fact that it only offers...

Thanks for this, Oryoki. One big question about this recorder is about the stereo image of recordings made using the onboard mics, given that they're...
Hi, I need to write a program to calculate the dB values from PCM wave files so that I could do batch calculations for analysis. Could anyone help me how to ...
The samples in the file are from a wave so, even if the amplitude is high, many will be values near 0. You could do something like find the root mean square ...
... Hi Ernst, As you seem to be predicting, narrow. The M10's cousins, the D-50 and D-1 and other pocket recorders with minimally separated mics were compared...

The newest Beta release of Audiofile Engineering's 'Wave Editor' (1.4.6b2 Nov 05 2009) now supports 'cue markers' from Sound Devices 7x series recorders (well...
Further to the above. I just found out why the markers weren't showing by default. Select 'Waveform > Markers' from the menu. Then 'File > Save as template'...
