Jammin Pro HR5RED Studio Flash Recorder, Red

Weird item. I own one, and overall, it's OK, but has some really bad elements. First of all, it looks like a toy. Second, the control buttons are so close together you have to use your fingernail. It's very easy to hit the wrong button. Third, it records in WAV or MP3, but the MP3 will only go up to 192 KPS, meaning you cannot get the best quality of MP3. The built-in speakers are a joke. You must put your ear right on them to even hear them. Once the unit would not turn off at all, and I had to take the batteries out to turn it off, but that happened only once. The little screen is great--it tells you everything you need to know when recording and shows the exact time you have recorded. The sales pitch says batteries last up to 9 hours, but that is not true. It burns batteries like crazy and does not come with an electric cord--and the instructions say buy your own 5 volt electric cord, well, it is very hard to find a 5 volt cord...I don't know why they didn't make it 4.5 or 6 volt, which are easy to find. But for all it's faults (and there are more than I have listed here), it does record great on both the built-in microphone and the line-in. It's great for converting your old cassettes to digital, even if it only records at 192 KPS in MP3. They should have made it go over 300 KPS, if they are going to claim this is a "professional" unit as they do. Well, it might be good for an amateur professional, but a true professional would laugh at it.

This is an AMAZING value for the price! Easy to use, very flexible in operation, and the sound is pristine! AND, I like the fact it comes in my favorite color (RED!). Thanks, Amazon, for carrying this item!

Totally impressed with the sound quality from such an affordable pocket recorder...Im no professional musician but I was very impressed when I heard the playback after I burned the SD card to a disc...Highly recommend this product...

If you have vinyls that you want to file mp3, this little gadget can do that and cassettes also.sound quality is very good I was surprised. Get one you'll like it!
