BATTERY EATER If it wasn't for the fact that this unit is a heavy drain on batteries it is a really great recorder. I found it easy to navigate and use. I love the feature where I can upload my recordings to my computer and give them a name for easy reference. Put the playback is so much better than from the unit.I would rate this unit 9 out of 10 stars if it wasn't for the fact that is heavy on battery usage. I've only had the unit less than 1 month and I've had to change the batteries 4 times already. I have Alzheimer's disease and I am so forgetful of conversations. I used this recorded one day while having a conference with my attorney which lasted 45 minutes. I put in a brand new set of AAA batteries in the unit before I left. I didn't turn it on until I reached my attorney's office. I told hem I was going to record our conference and she had no problem with that. So I set up the recorder to 'record'.At the end of the session I wanted to show my attorney the excellent playback sound. However it would not open up to that mode or any mode. When I got home I checked the batteries and they had been drained. I put in a new set and the playback was fine and I uploaded it into my computer.It seems to drain the most with longer recording periods.
You can record and saves files with it but it's a real pain. Pros The reason you are viewing it and the reason I bought it it's the cheapest recorder The mic is pretty sensitive It technically works just not wellCons Sound quality is bad. Lots of hissing and scratchy noise throughout. The USB port is oddly placed don't expect to be able to plug it in without a challenge Records in the company's own .voc format. As one user Mike De Bruyn keeps commenting you can install the software that is on the device to change files over to a .wav format. This is possible but just horrible design. Why would I want to have to install some ugly singleuse program just to play my sound files and then have to transfer each one over to .wav and then perhaps a third format from there and delete the original? It's such an annoying and pointless. The necessary software that comes with this product says do you accept the terms of service of this product and wish to install weatherbug? after the terms of service spiel.
meh The most annoying thing about this is that it does not work for Macs. So if you have a mac don't get it.
The Perfect Product for the Right Person and I am the right person. I used to record voice/guitar demos on a handheld cassette before finally shopping around for the perfect digital recorder. After much comparison and a couple false starts this is the model I settled on and I have to say I'm very happy with it.The recording quality is fine [I record on the highestquality still more than enough hours of recording time like 35!]and nice and loud. The controls are completely easy with nothing in a weird place no odd functionality. It's light as a feather too. And the added USB port is the clincher.
RCA VR5320R review I just bought this item for paranormal investigation. With mix reviews I decided to just buy it and give it a try. Let me tell you it works perfectly! Took me only 5 mins to get the hang of it. Instructions were very easy to read. USB to the pc was not hard at all. If you would like to review audio on pc with WAV. file you must set recorder in HQ. Since I love reviewing the audio for ghost voices it was a lot easier viewing my audio in WAV. file then the lower quality of the recorder. Much easier.
12 and 3 record very good product. have had a few and this is the best one so far .
recorder The recorder works very well. With the mic it can record the sound in more than one small room. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a recorder. Doesn't play on a mac.
Great little voice recorder. Excellent value for the money. I attend a lot of investment related seminars. I need a voice recorder for seminar recording purpose. Besides the requirement of good voice recording quality I have following additional mandatory requirements1 the capability of downloading the recorded voices into PC for archiving2 the recorded files must be in a format that can be listened edited by mainstream software tools. I do not want files in proprietary formats. And I don't want to install any vendor provided special software.This RCA VR532R digital voice recorder meets all my requirements.Proa Low cost. I haven't been able to find another one that is cheaper.b Great Portability The recorder size is small. It's easy to carry around.c Nice voice recording quality. I can not say it has the best voice recording quality to record life music performance. But for recording conversation from seminars it's good.d The recorded voice files can be easily copied and past to PC without the need of installing any additional software. All I need is just the window explorer.e It has 3 recording quality modes. By selecting the HQ high quality recording mode it saves files in WAV format. The WV format is one of the mainstream audio formats. Virtually all mainstream software tools takes this format. And it is one of the native format that window supports without the need of installing additional software.The package comes with RCA's own software CD.
Sound investment I purchased the recorder to help me record memos to myself. So far the recorder works perfectly and does exactly as I want it to. I recommend seniors with memory problems to buy this voice recorder and use it daily.
Decent recordings I got this for recording lectures during class and it works decently. I usually try recording on Standard mode to fit more on it than High Quality. So far as of this post I have about 4 hours of lectures saved with about 2/3 of the battery left. Very affordable for the price but not the highend quality like higher priced recorders.I'm glad I bought it.
