Ah, thanks for letting us know that. I at least did not know that. Weight, are you sure? What he wants is where you say I want you to start recording at 7 and stop at 10 for instance. What I remember plextalks having is where you either have it start as soon as you hit the button, or when it hears some thing.

Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer
well all I know is that the custom settings have both a start time and an end time. and there are other options like sound detection to. Now I don't know how reliable any of that is as I don't use those features. In fact sense I got my ls 100 I don't use the pocket for recording much at all. I know that both the ptr2 and the pocket had those features. try them out and see.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Ah yeah. I don't recall the PTR2 having one. Very interesting. I had a PTR2 once, It's gone now though. Ah the goodold PTR2. Sometimes I want to buy another one but come on, $895 for something that the cards don't exist for any more almost? You can find a select few on Amazon, but who's to say they'll really work? Pluss, like you said, the LS 100 does better quality recording anyways. It does HD. But part of me still loves the good old PTR2. But I digress, point is, that's cool man. I don't the PTR2 having it, but if it does that's cool. The PTP1 does now you remind me of it. But I forgot.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Oh yeah, you can find them alright. But when you want to get one for the PTR2 it gets harder. I'll tell you abit why just so as not to leav you hanging, but I won't go too deep as it maybe off topic. But perhaps not. Here it is. Basicly the problem is this, heck you can buy them at staples but it's the ultra 2 ones. The PTR1 and 2 want either type 1 or 2. They don't like Ultra 2. They lock up when you put one in. That's the company's falt though. I don't get why the PTR2 didn't accept type Ultra 2 cards since it came out in 2005 I think. Or was it 6? Is it too little too Late? Is that something that they could still fix with firmware if they chose to? Or would they have to reforge the PTR2 to put a new card reader in it? The cards are essentially the same but for speed. Like I said, Amazon has them, or at least 2, but one I'm not sure of, and the Sandisk one is $40 for only 4 GB. IS it just me or does any one here agree that $40 is a little too much for only 4GB. I actually wander about this too, and this maybe another topic for a whole new thread. Is something like the PTR2 even worth buying anymore? Or is it just just for mastaljicreasons. You know what I mean? It's just cool, one may just love it just because and for almost just collection purposes you may want one. But it's $895. With all the limitations and let's be honest, dying or dead tech in it, is $895 to get it from IRTI even fair anymore? I don't know if anyone wants to debate this or least make their views known, but there you have mine. But yeah, to get off the sope box and back to the main point, you can find the cards, but it's not guarantied the ones you may find will work. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2013 2:30 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer Those compact flash cards are still available.

Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Yeh, I get what you say in many ways, I do feel however that why do they stil make the machine if it might not be so much in use anymore. They don't update the hardware either. But I think if you no why you want it and if you no you can use it alot its stil werth the money, but you rite that most people will have to compare the amount of money with what they get for it. But I guess if you buy the sandisk cards, chances for locking up is maybe less, although I couldn't test that. On 09/03/2013, Hamit Campos wrote: > Oh yeah, you can find them alright.

Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Wel, maybe something to add here is that if this is the case with ptr2, then maybe it might be better to go for the bookport dt model instead, as it offer many of the ptr2 features with some extras and of corse newer hardware, and also alot cheaper.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Yep, that's what I thought when I first heard of the Book port Desk Top. For thoughs who wander what the DT stands for. Um I guess it may even some what feel like a PTR 2 from what someone hinted at on the Accessible Devices podcast? Interesting if it is so. After all I guess APH has teemed up with the Plextalk guys. So, I guess that in some respects, the BP DT is a PTR3 so to speak. I just wanted to see what people thought. There must be enough people buying the PTR2 as is though if they continue to sell it as is and not modernize it. It's not fair though since they want the same amount of money as in 2006. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: Sunday, March 10, 2013 10:10 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer Wel, maybe something to add here is that if this is the case with ptr2, then maybe it might be better to go for the bookport dt model instead, as it offer many of the ptr2 features with some extras and of corse newer hardware, and also alot cheaper.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Yep, think about this, the small BP is essentially the PTP1. AKA, the Pocket with more stuff. You wish they could update what again? If the PTR2, I think it has to be reforged. I don't really know though. The CF card thing for instance, wouldn't firmware fix that? I forgot to ask the tech support guy about that. But they do have to reforge it physically to make it USB 3.0 for instance. Yes, go 3.0 and get it over with. Heck make it a Blu-ray writer whilst you're at it too. That's what I'd do. Oh yeah, and make it actually be able to write DAISY or what ever to Blu-ray. Then $895 might be worth it. Think of the Books you can put on a Blu-Ray disk, especially a 50GB one. How about some lite scribe hm? How do those ideas grab you? Then to sweeten the deal, add on all the new stuff. The wireless stuff, the internet radio and so on. That would be one cool PTR unit. I don't know if they would call it a PTR3 if they did that. But it would be cool though. Remember this, the only reason according to Mike Lang for the PTR2 was the led thing. So, it's like some people say about Vista VS. Win 7. Win 7 is what Vista should have been. The PTR2 is what the PTR1 could and should have been. No more, no less unfortunately. What a miss of a chance. They could have made it USB 2.0 right there on the spot, they could have opened the limit on memory size for the CF cards, you know there are 32 GB ones. Pluss, ready it for Ultra II cards. They missed on so many points. How sad when you really think about it. But oh well, at least we have the BP DT. I hope the pre amps are as good or better then the PTR2, and I hope they brought down the floor noise as well as inproved the Auto Gane Controll. It was and is too week on the PTR2. Especially with cheep mikes. Have you tried one?

I don't have one, but I am thinking of getting one, so I guess that those things like auto gain is now equal to the bpp and pocket anyway. But people are generally now going to be motivated to go more for the desktop bookport anyway because of the hardware and price differences.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Yeah, they have that in them. I use to have a PTR2 but it got damaged. I loved it. I still do. It's just all the limitations that we've discussed thus far are what makes me hesitate on getting on. Especially since IRTI still wants $895 for it. If they'd only drop the price then maybe. All though the BP DT sounds cool. It can record DAISY 3 books too if I understand correctly. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: Monday, March 11, 2013 3:11 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer I don't have one, but I am thinking of getting one, so I guess that those things like auto gain is now equal to the bpp and pocket anyway.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
But then again, when it comes to recording in general, I've already moved on. Something like the LS-100 would be best. IT's HD audio capable. Though I really dig the Sound Devices stuff.

Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Wel, I also love the ptr2 and would want to try and always use it fully. But its true that the olympuses have very good quality recording.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Alright then cool. Yeah, I'd try the PTR2 once more if I could be really sure I can give it a really fare chance. Like I said, It's hard to tell with things from AMAZON. If I were 110% cirtain those cards would work, then we'd be having a bit of a different conversation perhaps. But yeah though, for just recording in general, I'd go with the LS-100. I guess the LS-14 might be fine too. But I want phantom power and XLR connecters. Like I said before, what I'd really love is the 788-T/SSD. But it's 6 grand. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: Monday, March 11, 2013 2:33 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer Wel, I also love the ptr2 and would want to try and always use it fully.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Why the 788-t? Well, listen to the recordings when Neal uses the Rode NT1-A on his 744-T and you'll hear why. Mind, this is MP3. So now imagine what it would sound like in full LPCM 192KHZ 24 BYT. Then, you can take those 8 track recordings you make on the 788-T made with 8 Rode Nt1-A mikes and put them into something like ProTools, and make them into 7.1 surround sound files. Now, tell me, how does that grabb you?

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Ah, I've heard of that sound card. But I think we'd better change the subject line before we get real deep into that. I guess no one else really wanted to debate the whole thing about the PTR2 then. Oh well. No but seriously, I guess it depends on weather one is willing to take the risk and deal with the limitations of it. The CDDA CDs you can find on Amazon too. Those will work no mater what. I've used a whole bunch of different ones back in the day. I don't that much any more. By the way, CDDA is the format of the regular CD, the ones you play on your stereo or in your car. That brings me to another point. That was another really cool thing about the PTR1 and 2. You could record live to CD. It was especially cool when you could do it in the regular music CD format which is CDDA or compact Disk Digital Audio. Now, there use to be a way to do this on a MAC, but I've never heard how to do it on a PC. So yeah, but I guess it doesn't really matter since no one really cares about CDs any more. Sure you can pass on the things you record on your LS-100 or the sound devices recorders to CD later by connecting a writer to them, but it's not the same as recording live to CD. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 5:56 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Handheld recorder with recording timer Wel, its great but I don't have those condenser mics, I hope to get one in time, but at least now I have a focusrite soundcard wich help alot and their preamps is ausom.

RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer
Ah interesting. Well, that would help a lot if you could, but the thing with the PTR1 and 2 goes beyond can I get a good deal, it goes to can I get a type 1 or 2 one. All you can get in stores here is Ultra 2. The PTR1 hates those. It beeps and locks up. Then it goes crasy when you take out. I was told by Typhony at IRTI that the PTR2 would do the same. I found the Hitachi Micro drive cards, so I guess one could use those. She said that the PTR2 seemed to be picky about microdrives too though. Basicly, the problem here is the limitations of the PTR2. Limitations that are silly and some what childish in my book. I mean, it's 2005 when this thing came out so it should be USB 2 capible, they should have gotten rid of the limitations on the memory size of cards you can put into it, and the limitation on the interface of said cards. What makes it even stranger is that this is the Japanese so they are usually ahead on stuff. I know that the PTR2 only came out cause of the led ban, but come on guys, why waste the chance. Make the thing better. Right? What do you think? I say they wasted an exelent chance. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Adrien Collins Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 11:15 AM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: Handheld recorder with recording timer Hi Here in Europe you can get sd cards for a very reasonable amount, not sure about cf flash cards as I never use them.
