Best value: Excellent
Used in recent weeks to record rehearsals and vocal group also teaches piano.

Very easy to use, fast. That's not all intuitive to 100% but only one reading the manual just to be operational for long.

Advantages:
- Very light, small and autonomous. I hesitated with the H4, increased opportunities for his proposal, but ultimately, for the use I make (like MD), the H2 is more appropriate. He stands on his foot, it is placed, it is "rec" and it left my kiki.
- Use almost intuitive
- Multi-format recording. For my part, I opted for the 160 mp3. For the testimony of repetition, it's perfect, it does not feel at all frustrated by a compressed sound. In my opinion, it is broadly comparable in quality to the minidisc format. And there, on a 1GB card, it takes 11 hours ...
- Connection to the computer without driver (or leaving by directly reading the SD card into a card reader to the computer).
- System 10 directories (folders) ... is better than nothing.
- Limiters
- Sensitivity adjustment recording High Medium Low ... complemented by a refined level on a scale of 0 to 100. I did not notice breath especially in Medium.

Defects:
- Construction plastic, but at € 150 / 200 (used), we will not expect to titanium. Be especially careful when opening the doors of the batteries or SD card. We guess that at any time, a "crack" fatal can occur.
- Battery charging indicator of low visibility (in this regard, I have to check ... but it seems to me that on a long-term recording, before losing all vanish for lack of fuel supply, it saves the file where there are significant ... and then dies).
- Position of the "left right" depending on the angle 90 ° or 120 ° chosen. It seems that in one case, the right lane is on the left and "high school in Versailles." So, we must take in his favorite software for réinverser the two tracks.
- No explanation of the different modes of compression / limiter. By limiting it: there are "live", "studio" ... What it is like limiting behavior? No explanation, at least not in the manual.
- Boot record: you have to press 2 times "Rec", the first to arm, the second to launch. As the pictogram is tiny, I already have both qq: I paused instead of registering.

In short, I found the quality / price excellent. This is a great tool to walk and record anything in 2 Seconds. Repeat, archive concert from the table, a musical idea, a poem for children. It's so up and running quickly!

Too bad it did not exist longer.
What do I do with my Minidisc now?
