Reviews of the Korg MR-1
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Korg MR-1 handheld audio recorder has an uncluttered interface and boasts stellar recording quality and file support for its size.
The Bad: The Korg MR-1's poor battery life, fragile hard-drive storage, long charge times, awkward input and output jacks, gigantic power adapter, and delicate microphone betray its portability.
The Bottom Line: Given the Korg MR-1's high price and poor suitability for the rigors of mobile recording, we only recommend it to discriminating audio archivists willing to accept practical limitations for increased recording resolution.
