## Description

Digital Voice Recorder Black

Review: I love this little voice recorder. I primarily use it to take quick notes for myself. It is small and light so its easy to carry with you everywhere. I like that you just slide the record switch over to both turn it on and start recording, then you simply slide the switch back to stop. At the end of the day, I plug it in to the USB on my computer and listen to the recordings to add things to my to do list for the next day or archive the ones I want to save. The sound quality of the recorded voice files are excellent. The onboard speaker is weak, but good enough for quickly reviewing recordings as most of my listening is done on my computer after transferring the files. The little spring-loaded clip at the back is flimsy though. I find that it is much easier and quicker to record audio than using my mobile phone and the sound quality of the recordings is better as well. I really like that two position, slide to record switch I mentioned earlier since I never really have to look at the unit to see if I turned it on or if I started the recording. If the unit is off, just slide the switch, wait two seconds and start talking, then slide the switch back after you are done. After I'm done recording, I just let it go to sleep. I don't even bother with the power switch to turn it off. In fact, I just leave the power switch in the "hold" position. The recorder has many other features and functions that you may or may not use, but I don't really use any of them so for me the simplicity, convenience and form factor are what I love the most. Maybe its a bit pricey for my simple application, but it is a very effective tool for me. Perfect for those "Eureka" moments in the middle of the night. You don't even have to turn on your bedside light or use the VP-10's display. Its very easy start and stop it by feel alone.
Review: For the size you can't beat the quality and ease of use. The best feature is how you turn on the recording. Its a switch and not a button. You can leave the recorder on HOLD, so no buttons or setting get changed while in your pocket. When its time to record, you just flip the record switch and it automatically turns on and start recording, if HOLD was already set, when you started the recording it remains on. The USB that is built into the device means you can download your recordings to your computer without cords. The microphones are at the top and are very sensitive. Great sound quality!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long does it record maximumly for one recording? For Example 2 hours non-stop?**
A: I've done 5 hours, but haven't done the math or tested the battery duration yet.  Once I forgot to charge it and I lost half of my intended recording.

**Q: Is there a mic jack?**
A: No. The top of the recorder that sticks up from a shirt pocket has a headphone jack, but there is no mic jack or double function input/output.  For a mic input you may want to look at some of the slightly larger pocket-size recorders made by Olympus, Sony and Tascam.

**Q: is it mac compatible?**
A: It is compatible to both platforms

**Q: Is there a clip for a shirt pocket, or to clip onto a backpack?**
A: The clip is weak and fragile. If you bend over it is likely to fall out of your front shirt pocket. Possibly you could put it on a lanyard. Fortunately, the recorder itself is superb. I use mine more than once most days and it does a great job of recording. You can instantly go from off/locked to record which is important to me because a lot of my interviews are ad-hoc. I don't play back the recording on this unit though. I move them to my computer and play them back with a dictation system (F5). Good luck.

*by A***R on 21 April 2019*

Charged it once when I got it a couple of months ago and the battery is still going, albeit I do not use it very often. I left the device in the car all winter (Canadian winters!) without any problems. No need to fiddle with on/off switch since all you have to do to start recording is push the thumb-operated button. I use it mainly to record my thoughts while driving since I can reach for the device and start recording without looking at it at all and by using one hand only. Today I decided to transfer all of my WAV files to the computer, so I was looking for a darn USB cable, only to realize that the device already had a built-in USB jack. This thing is quite amazing.
