Ah the good trusty PTR 2. Note I skipped on old? Here's y.
Cause if you have $900 you can still get 1. Yes the PTR2 is stil alive
and well.All though how people use it with the compact flash limits it
has I don't know. In 2010 my PTR1 rejected a whole bunch of CF cards.
Last year I tried 1 more and looked like it would take it but meh wrong.
It messed it up. Now for the subject at hand. Yeah the LS-P2 is pretty
good for what it is. but note it will sound little. Even external mikes
don't get there big fat studio sound. I don't hate the little sound of
the P2, but just be warned your recordings will sound little. Especially
for you who are use to the awesomeness of the epic PTR2. How I'd love to
have a PTR2 once more. If only I knew of CF cards wich will work. Or
better yet a microdrive.

The Ls 14 is gone? Nuts! Isomeone sent me a Neal Ewers review of the
ls 14, but I didn't know how old that was, as there was no date on
it. I need a digital recorder which will be accessible for a piano
cd. My old ptr2 plextor machine just died.

Well, the 14 don't have a compressor as far as I no, or at least not
one you can adjust, only a limiter. But 100 have both limiter and
compressor.

As to the 14 being gone yeah I'm surprised too as it was being sold as
the side arm as it were to the 100. Meh the 14 is the 1 you throw your
ideas at you use to practise and what not. Then once it's time to make
that project a reality and send it to mastering to make it loud out
comes the LS 100 and you make your project and burn that sucker to CD.
Yeah that's a cool feature that the 100 has that I think and I only
think that only Sound Devices recorders have. I could be wrong though.
Oh and that's another thing. The way the 14 does the over dub is better.
I forget how the 100 does it but the 14 is better in that it just
creates more and more wav files as you dub more and more. So if you mess
up just get rid of the newest file. No throwing the whole project away
and having to restart it all.

Intresting, I wasn't aware that ls14 is gone. I'm glad I have one.
Well, don't forget there is hopefully stil the ls100 if its not gone
either. Although I think they will hang on to it for longer as its
their only multitrack option rite now.

Ah yes then indeed the LS-P2 will do fine. I would also personally
recomend the now gone LS-14. But not sure how you could get this as
apparently Olympus doesn't sell it no more.

Hi,
I am actually looking to replace my DS 50 which is about fifteen
years
old
now and finally worn out. I really liked that model except for the
hiss
in
the recording. I am hoping to find something with equal or better
sound
quality and equal accessibility. The LS P2 has been recommended to me
on
multiple lists. I asked for something that was more than consumer
level
recording. Since losing the rest of my vision I lost access to all
the
really cool multitrack options that I know of out there.

What's that the LS-P2? yes it's actually more so. You can actually
set
the
date and time yourself. Olympus finally contracted that british
lady to
say the numbers and things. I don't get why they d
idn't in the first place but oh well there it is. There's also the
DM720
for consumers that is also as accessible.

Tom,
The best unit to replace your old recorder is LS-P2 which you can
read
about on the page:
https://www.olympus.com.au/Products/audio/Sound-(Music-Field)/LS-P2/Ov
erview
The list price is shown as $179 but I'm sure that if you look around
you will find it cheaper.
Don't let the hype on the web page fool you. This is a small unit
that will easily fit in a shirt pocket and is, for the most part,
simple
to use.
You'd better make that a shirt pocket with a button down flap
because
unless you wrap the P2 in a tissue, it will slip out when you bend
over. Better still, buy a Gutman wind screen for it.
It is the replacement for the LS-14 and, like the LS-14, has voiced
menus.Bob Nelson

Subject: [all-audio] Looking For Equivalent to Olympus DS-40Recorder
Hello list: Well it would seem that I have lost my good ole Olympus
DS040 digital recorder! I've looked all over in areas where I
thought
it might be! But alas, it just doesn't seem to be here! I know
that
this series of digital recorders don't exist anymore under DS-40 or
DS-50! But what is Olympus making now that is the equivalent? I
used
this recorder mainly to record music gigs (I know it mainly is
supposed to be a voice recorder) but I found that it doesn't do bad
for recording live music! I also liked this machine because of its
size (small enough that I could just stick it in my
pocket) so assuming that I cannot locate the one I have, I'd surely
love to find a good replacement for it; I'd even go for the
equivalent
to the DS-50 (which might be even better; also would like to know
where would be the best place to find one here in the U.S.A.?
Thanks,
Tom Kaufman
