Reviews of the Yamaha Pocketrak CX
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Yamaha Pocketrak CX handheld recorder is slim and sleek, uses a replaceable rechargeable battery, and captures pristine audio with its high-quality built-in microphones.
The Bad: The slender design of the Pocketrak CX doesn't allow for larger external mic connections; the use of microSD memory limits storage capacity; and there are only a few advanced settings.
The Bottom Line: The Pocketrak CX is a great choice for solo musicians and bands that need a no-nonsense recorder with quality built-in mics, but its features may be too basic for demanding users.
