User questions & answers

Question:	Will sdxc 32gb work in this
Answer:	If you purchase the R0de SC3 adapter, then it is pretty much compatible with any device that will accept a 1/8" input. For example, a Sennheiser lav belt pack orany other device that requires a passive input.
Question:	Does this one have a max SD card size it can read
Answer:	You can record from as far away as 20 feet with literally NO loss of audio quality using these combo:Rode SC6 Breakout box -http://amzn.to/292JOrDRode SC1 TRRS Extension Cable -http://amzn.to/29nvCdgCopy/paste the above links into your browser's address bar and press EnterUsing the above combo, you can plugin up to 2 SmartLav+ mics and a Headphone to monitor recording levels at the same time. Some phone cases require you to remove the case before you plugin the breakout box. If so, you can plugin the extension cable into the phone and plugin the breakout box between the extension cable and the SmartLav+ mics/headphone. This way, there is NO need to remove the phone case :) I've tried a couple of non-Rode extension cables and breakout boxes for about half the cost but there were just crap and died in a few weeks. Once you try these, you will notice immediately that these are PERFECT and VERY HIGH QUALITY products (especially the perfect thickness of the cords without adding mass, Gold-plated tips for high quality audio) and you get what you pay for.This combo works for me great!!
Question:	Has anyone ordered this as of recent and still having problems with screwing it into the recorder? Alot of reviews in March complaining
Answer:	Do I need to purchase additional connector in order to connect with android phone?
Question:	What lav mic does it come with. It looks like the sennheiser me 2 from the picture. Can anyone confirm
Answer:	Yes, it will work, depending on what camera you have. It comes with a TRRS plug which is required when you want to plug it into a cellphone to record audio. (*Reason being that a microphone requires power to run, and a cellphone jack doesn't give off power. Since this was designed with cellphone use in mind, they used a TRRS plug that would draw power from your phone to run the mic.*) However, if you want to plug it into a camera, or another device with an external mic jack, you will need to buy the Rode SC3 adapter. (*Reason being that devices with a jack for an external microphone do give off power to run that microphone, so the extra function of the TRRS tip is not necessary.*)That Rode SC3 adapter will change the plug from TRRS to TRS, which can then be used with your nikon dslr, or other device with a 3.5mm external microphone jack.

Tascam DR-10L

The TASCAM DR-10L is an ultra-compact, incredibly convenient digital recorder/lavalier microphone combo. For added flexibility, the included wired lavalier microphone is affixed via a 1/8" screw-down lock connector compatible with most Sennheiser lavalier mics and mics with the same connector.

Designed for both the creative filmmaker and the busy videographer, the DR-10L is an immensely powerful problem-solving tool, delivering professional sonics and revolutionary convenience.

Stealth Fighter

Building on the success of the DR-10X and the DR-10SG, the DR-10L marries the industry standard TASCAM portable mini-recorder with a high performance lavalier mic. Easy-to-use – and easy-to-wear – the DR-10L can become your secret weapon in the war against poor production audio.

Sliding record switch and hold function to prevent misoperation during recording

The recording switch uses a sliding mechanism. This prevents misoperation from accidentally pressing a button. In addition, the hold function can prevent recording from being stopped by accidental contact with a button.

Compact and lightweight body that is only 2.2oz. (63 g), including battery

The DR-10L has been designed to be small, light and easy to conceal. Perfect for on-camera talent, documentary subjects or entire wedding parties, the DR-10L can easily be hidden away and so that nothing comes between you and the perfect shot (with perfect audio!)

Operates for up to 10 hours continuously on a single alkaline AAA battery

One easily obtained Alkaline AAA battery powers the DR-10L for up to 10 hours continuously. The DR-10L can also use disposable lithium or rechargeable NiMH batteries.

*The battery life varies depends on battery type. When using the device with a headphone connected, battery life will be reduced.

Support for MP3 recording at both 128kbps and 192kbps

In addition to WAV (BWF) format files, recording and playback of MP3 files is now supported. This enables literally days of audio to be recorded on a single microSD card.

Level meters are now active during both recording and playback

Level meters were previously active only during input monitoring. With V2.00 they are live during recording and playback as well.

Level selection with dual recording function added

The dual recording function enables simultaneous creation of a backup 'safety recording' at a lower level. Previously, this backup track was fixed at -6 dB lower than the main track. A new option of -12 dB now been added.

Poly file dual recording

Poly file mode can be used to record a mono sound source input as a stereo file. V2.00 also supports dual recording when in this mode.

• Localized and intuitive menus for easy operation.Input impedance: 2 kΩ
• Playback Speed Control, Voice Emphasize Filter, and Stereo overdubbing functions

User questions & answers

Question:	When you connect a mic into the input line. Can you mix it with the built-in mics
Answer:	No, but ZOOM makes (and Amazon sells) another model that will record FOUR channels --- the "same" two built-in mics PLUS two LINE/XLR jacks: the H5 (which I also own). (See here: http://amzn.to/2l8U4nC) (that's a lowercase L and N)
Question:	How can I use the zoom h1 as a dslr mic.? If it is possible do I have to press record on the zoom h1 and and press the record button on the dslr whe
Answer:	Just a note about recording into a dslr: the bitrate and sample rate you set on the zoom doesn't affect the bitrate and sample rate recorded onto the dslr file. Your dslr always determines the bitrate and sample rate. (IE: for most Canon's that's 44khz/16 bit). The audio quality from the zoom will be better than your on-camera mic simply because the microphone itself is higher quality, but don't expect to be recording 96khz/24 bit audio straight into your dslr's .mov files!
Question:	can I record a piece to video with the Zoom recording my voice and then synch it to video
Answer:	Sure thing. I use mine as a primary aiduo recorder for my Nikon D5300. I use the sound from the camera as areference track and then stnc the wave file from the Zoom to the video using Final Cut X. Works perfect with much better sound quality.
Question:	What does this device actually record onto - some sort of a memory card or flash drive? I'm looking for something that will record at least 6 hours
Answer:	You get roughly 12 hours on the 2GB micro SD card included, in MP3 320kbps. Quality is excellent. If you want WAV format your looking at about 2.5 hours with the stock card. Larger cards are cheap though so it's upgradable.

Don't forget to save the recording in progress before turning off the recorder to avoid permanently losing the audio file. If the recorder automatically turns off due to exhausted battery power, the recorder will automatically save the ongoing recording.

User questions & answers

Question:	does it have a memory card slot as it doesn't mention it in the description
Answer:	It does 'mention' the card sizes in the description: " Expand your memory with the micro SD card slot The ICD-PX470 comes with 4 GB of memory built-in, which gives you a max recording time up to 59h 35m when recording in stereo at MP3 128 kbps. You can expand your memory capacity with a micro SD card for up to 32 GB of additional memory—equivalent to over 536 hours (Micro SD 32 GB, MP3 128 kbps) of recording time. "
Question:	Do the recordings delete when the batteries die
Answer:	I think what happens is that the recording is still resident but just ends with the *beep beep* of the battery dying. I've not paid attention lately to it, though.
Question:	Does this unit have a lighted display
Answer:	Hi Matthew, yes, this recorder has a lighted display which can be turned off and on. You may refer to this link for the recorder's manual: https://docs.sony.com/release//Help_4595548311.pdf Thanks, -Mark

Product features

USB direct connection for quick file transfer

Transferring files to or from your computer is fast and convenient. Just plug the ICD-PX470 straight into a free USB port for an immediate connection—no USB cable needed.

Expand your memory with the micro SD card slot

The ICD-PX470 comes with 4 GB of memory built-in, which gives you a max recording time up to 59h 35m when recording in stereo at MP3 128 kbps. You can expand your memory capacity with a micro SD card for up to 32 GB of additional memory—equivalent to over 536 hours (Micro SD 32 GB, MP3 128 kbps) of recording time.

Extra-long battery life for extended recording

When recording with the built-in mic at MP3 192/128 kbps, the supplied AAA battery will last for up to 55 hours. That’s over two full days of non-stop recording in between battery changes—perfect for recording at long conferences and events.

Adjustable microphone range for clearer voices

Adjustable microphone settings hone in on the sound you want to capture. When you’re recording a single voice, Focus mode captures a narrow field of sound from one direction. When you’re in meetings, the Wide-Stereo mode opens up the range to capture everyone in the room. Choose from four 'scene' pre-sets (music, meeting, interview, dictation) to further optimize the audio settings.

Auto Voice Recording reduces background noise

Want to record someone talking? Turn on Auto Voice Recording and the ICD-PX470 will optimize audio capture settings for vocal frequencies. The result is a purer recording with reduced background noise. And when you listen back to the recording, Clear Voice technology cleans up the signal even more for improved clarity.

Transcription playback helps you review recordings

Getting conversations down on paper is easy with the transcription playback mode. Easily fast-forward and rewind through the track, or create cue points that help you find your place quickly. Digital Pitch Control even lets you slow down the playback speed so you can listen more closely to what’s being said.

S-microphone system captures distant or quiet sounds

Now you can record those faint audio sources without capturing excessive background noise, thanks to the high-sensitivity, low-noise S-microphone. Even the sound of birds twittering in the distance can be captured naturally and clearly.

Record and listen in Linear PCM or MP3 formats

Choose from two popular file formats when you record. Linear PCM files are larger but capture more detail—ideal for recording music. MP3 files are compressed but require less memory, making them better for recording long lectures or meetings. The ICD-PX470 will also play back MP3 and PCM files, so you can listen to your favorite songs in music player mode.

Calendar Search finds the right file quickly

Recordings are marked by date, so you can easily find which ones were made on a specific day. Bring up the calendar to browse through days and find the recording you’re looking for.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the cassette player automatically play side B or do you need to flip the tape
Answer:	Yeah. Fine for jotting down ideas. Naturally, if you were to play the amp on 20, I'm sure it would distort and sound bad. What wouldn't? The idea here, is a cheap and convenient way to electronically remember those ideas...that uses those cheap and old cassette tapes that are laying around.
Question:	do you have to have the detached mic, or does this also have a built in mic
Answer:	New and unopened. We needed it to play dictations back so the staff could type them up. It's worked perfectly so far!
Question:	Can I record a message off my cell phone
Answer:	I don't know what the other model is that's 29 dollars but I am a court stenographer and this one has a very good sound quality. But I also have as extras a brand thats 20 bucks and I always use external mic and the sound is good. It's a company with letters for a name. Jensen has been around for years. I'm happy with mine. And if the sound isnt good for recording I use ththeththem fir play back.
Question:	does this recorder use regular size tapes or the mini tapes
Answer:	Yes, it's about the size of a shoe box in length. Definitely not a walkman and also not stereo (mono only). Good product for voice audio recordings, transcriptions, etc.

User questions & answers

Question:	I am a new podcaster. Would someone be kind enough to explain how I would use this to interview someone over the telephone? Would skype be involved?th
Answer:	Yes, you will want to use a software like Skype or Google Voice. You can connect the headphone output of your computer to one of the H5 inputs.
Question:	If this unit is powered off and a USB cable is connected to a computer does it automatically turn on or will it stay off
Answer:	It will automatically turn on with the option to select its use as an interface or storage device...hope this helps.
Question:	Is the battery life significantly improved over the H4N? I like my H4N, but it's terrrible on phantom power for battery life
Answer:	I can't compare it to the H4n. I got about 8-10 hours on the h5 using alkalines and phantom being on for nearly all of that time. It gives very little warning when the batteries are about to go.
Question:	Judging from the pictures it looks to be made of plastic. Is this fragile or robust
Answer:	It does not have a plastic feel. If you have ever held an H4n than this will feel somewhat the same. The H5 has a slim, but sturdy feel. It's not the kind of item that would break easily. The thing with the H5 is that it is so cool looking that you're always worrying about getting a single scratch on it. Fortunately, the rubber like exterior seems to handle scratches pretty well. Highly recommend that you get a screen protector as soon as you take it out of the box. I've held both the H5 and H6 and while the H6 feels slightly heavier and more professional with all the knobs, nice looking finish and a great color screen. The H5 feels lighter, has great build quality and you are more likely to use it because it light enough to mount on a rig or carry around... Without the fear of it breaking. I've bumped it on a few corners with my rig and it has held up pretty well. The only thing that feels like plastic are the adapters, but that applies to both the H5 and H6.Hope that helps.
