This is a blog post, not a review. A review is coming, but this is just an entry for later on.. I am having a blast with this Sony PCM-D50
Before I played drums, I enjoyed a nice thunderstorm behind my house. I grabbed the recorder and set it on my back porch and captured this (WARNING THERE IS LOUD THUNDER DON'T POP YOUR SPEAKER!):
I have a fountain in my pool which added to the ambient sound. If you listen closely, you can hear the pool pump humming.
So I made it out to my Roland TD-20 V-Drums and recorded a few things with the recorder. The built-in limiter and the built in processing that keeps the audio clean on this Sony PCM-D50 is freaking amazing!
Here's me grooving to some Mavin Gaye - "T" Plays it Cool. I love this song for the drum fills, it's a sweet ass song.
Then I played around with this on the "Lite" kit on the Roland TD-20:
I'm no rock star, but this Sony PCM-D50 kicks ass! Look at the Beautiful Audio that comes out of this thing:
Note: I saw the battery indicator saying it was on it's last bar (low battery) and after that, I continued to record at 48khz for about 35 - 40 minutes, then I played it all back through my headphones on the PCM-D50 and also transferred 2.5 GB worth of data to the computer on that low battery. The battery life is unbelievable. 4 AA batteries lasted for more than 12 - 16 hours of continuous use this past week.

This thing records soo clean! No peaking, no nothing. The thunderstorm sounds very real in that it caught the high's and low's of the storm.

None of this audio was enhanced... in fact it was sampled down so that it would work on our website. We have a limit here of 44,100 hz and 160kbps MP3. The originals were at like 96k and 48,000 hz. The originals sound sooo much clearer! Find some good headphones!
