Product Description
512MB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device.
From amazon.com
The Sony ICDU60 digital voice recorder makes capturing audio a breeze. Built-in flash memory provides 512MB of storage capacity for storing large amounts of data. And with the ability to play MP3 music files, you can get even more enjoyment out of your personal recorder. The included Digital Voice Up function increases the playback volume of the person speaking when recorded at a distance. The digital pitch control allows recordings to be heard at slower or faster than normal speeds without distortion to facilitate transcribing or editing, or to move faster than normal to a desired portion. Its slim, sleek design is constructed of all aluminum for a sophisticated look.

Features:

USB Compatible for Hi-Speed Transfer Rate to a PC via USB port on a PC.

MP3 Playback provides easy playback of unsecured MP3 files by dragging and dropping files into the MP3 folder on the device.

3 Recording Modes: HQ, SP, LP

Slim Style Design is only one-half inch thick and fits neatly into a shirt pocket.

Digital Voice Up and VOR (Voice Operated Recording) Functions increases the volume of the person speaking when recorded at a distance from the unit.

Digital Pitch Control allows recordings to be heard at slower than normal speeds without distortion to facilitate transcribing or editing, or faster than normal to move quickly to a desired portion.

Recording Monitor Function allows the user to listen to the recording level by using headphone while unit is recording.

512MB Flash Memory uses a high capacity IC chip, which may be used repeatedly for recording with distortion-free clarity.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice recorder... Sony formatted files not helpful, April 12, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sony ICDU60 - 512MB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device. (Office Product)
The recordered has some nice features, like being able to select "folders" that you want to record the sessions into. However, the sound is recordered in a proprietary sony format. You need to download software to make Media Player play it. What makes things really annoying is there is no clean method by which you can save it into a "normal" format for sharing with other people. Why on earth didn't Sony use WAV or MP3 format is beyond my comprehension.

Recording quality is decent when you are within 6 feet of a person and have the recorder in plain view. However, if you are further away and want to keep the discrete (like in your pocket) the sound quality is terrible.

1.0 out of 5 stars Exclusive, not Mac compatible, Sony failed, December 25, 2007
This review is from: Sony ICDU60 - 512MB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device. (Office Product)
Proprietary format and although it is a FAT16 flash drive when plugged into a PC, for some reason it cannot be seen on a Mac. Sony exclusivity is a big mistake. Don't buy this -- it will just be a big hassle trying to read, process, share the files. (You might smash it with a sledge hammer and send to sony with a note.)
The buttons, layout, etc are nice -- typical of Sony -- and solid, well made, although the unit is big by current standards. 1 AAA battery.
As an external drive ("storange device"), it is useless as it is not Mac compatible.

2.0 out of 5 stars Save your money, November 11, 2007

This review is from: Sony ICDU60 - 512MB Digital Voice Recorder w/ MP3 & Storage Device. (Office Product)
I was excited about some of the features of this product, along with the price for what's offered. (Said features stopped me from giving this a 1-star rating.) Unfortunately, the sound quality is HORRIBLE compared to others I've heard, many of which are less expensive. And the format of the created file isn't very versatile either. Such a shame... Save your money for a different product. Sony, what's up?
