Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The listing says that one of the dimensions is 7". It's actually 4 3/4" tall x 1.5" wide x 0.6" deep. That's about as long as a pen, as thick as a thick pen, and as wide as a couple inches :).
Oh yea, and it the tradition of TASCAM recorders it does a great job of capturing audio. In addition to great sound and a wealth of useful features, this recorder has one of my favorites. You can set a time to start and end recording. It will automatically turn on and start at the time you set. For me that means I can input the start and end times of a performance and it's one less thing to think about when I get to a show.
Also nice is that it uses removable memory cards. Sometimes after I've recorded something the captured audio is worth more than the device. It's nice to be able to remove the memory to prevent accidental erasure or having the recording stolen with the device.
Finally, Amazon shows this recorder along side a USB microphone in the "Frequently Bought Together" section. This device does have a USB jack. Do not get misled into thinking you can connect a USB microphone to this recorder (and have it work). The recorder will accept analog input but will not work with a USB mic.
Lastly, I'm providing an audio sample and comparison in the video portion of this review. You get to hear the same thing recorded simultaneously with this recorder, the Tascam DR07 Portable Digital Recorder, and with a Blue Microphones Snowball USB Microphone (White) directly into my computer. I don't tell you until the end which is which. However here's a hint, the DR07 has much better fidelity than the PR10. (However, the PR10 is more than adequate as a field voice recorder and much easier to carry.)
BTW, I feel that honest, effective reviews, accompanied by detailed videos, can take the place of first-hand experiences that are often lacking in online shopping. I've always appreciated the help I've received from other reviewers and try to return the favor as best as I can. I hope you found this review helpful and the video at least entertaining. If there was anything you thought was lacking or unclear leave a comment and I'll do what I can to fix it.
