ICDUX523BLK Digital Flash Voice Recorder

Best recorder I've owned over the years and I've had all of them, Olympus, Pearlcorder, other Sony recorders, all media formats from tape to flash. This much more dependable than I thought it would be. I especially like the sliding USB plug which also charges the battery. Have never had to buy batteries in two years. Expandable memory is great. Interface with computer simple and easy. Sensitive built-in mics, good pickup. Ability to record in different MP3 modes give quality options. Just use for voice notes, but capable of much more. Always with me.

it has everything to record meetings. But I used it not only for this. I also convert my old cassettes recording to mp3 conecting it to my (old) cassette player because it allows to record from another player device. Pros: Many options Easy of use line in recorder Can be use as mp3 player Rechargable battery but an standar AAA batery can be used Long life of battery Cons: The way of manage the directories. Ambar display No radio. I would recomend to buy a model with FM radio

at least for me. after reading reviews of px312, here are reasons why i chose this over px312 for a little more money: 1. it has an internal usb outlet that SLIDES out, this is great because... 2. it can charge rechargable AAA batteries via usb (recorder only use ONE AAA as opposed to px312's two, and the battery that comes with the product is RECHARGABLE). combined with (1), this means you can conveniently charge your recorder while you transfer recording files to any usb-equipped computer, no need to buy a separate a charger. 3. able to edit existing or your own "scene" (recording area configuration), which isn't in px312. this means you can specify the bitrate, mic sensitivity, low cut filter, etc. that works best for you. it also has all the pluses of px312: easy of use, nice sound quality, etc. very happy with the decision so far.

my nursing school best friend, top quality sound, accurate representation, variable speed, build in usb, rechargeable battery with long life, light in weight, reliable, bullet proof quality what else can you ask for?

After being recognized by my computer the first few times to download recordings, it suddenly is no longer recognized on any computer. I am not able to download my recordings. I do not recommend this recorder.

The machine works fine - somewhat. I am unable to connect it to the PC using USB. After destroying the packaging to get the item out, fussing with trying to connect it, I contacted Sony only to be told this model is discontinued. I ordered the current model directly from Sony. If you just want to use this to record and playback without USB connection to your PC, it is fine. The recording sounds best if you use headphones for the playback. The software enclosed does not work with Windows 8, so you cannot import anything even if you download updates and connect via headphone/mic.

It work well. but later I found a cheaper price on the amazon. it provides a good voice.can work a long time.but a little expensive.

This little device makes recordings of amazing quality. The built-in microphone does a great job of picking up voices from people sitting around a table. While it has features I'll never use, it did come with software that makes it easy to edit the recordings, manage recording files in file folders, and generally make managing recordings much easier. It is small, charges from my laptop while I download the recordings, and always works. The controls are easy to use (record and stop). I can't think of any features I'd want that it doesn't have, but my uses are simple and have no need for production quality high-fidelity recordings. I just record people talking. It works fabulous for that.
