A Big Thank You to guitarfxr and to all those who have given info to this thread. The postings here were very helpful. After some reviewing and going back and forth and what unit to buy I settled on the Sony pcm-D50. I will be using it to tape my violin lessons and myself playing as I learn. I am a newbie with the violin and thought it would help to have quality sound recordings to assist me in getting the right tone, rhythm etc... This is also my first posting to a forum. I'll keep watching the thread to see what the outcomes are with the tascam dr1 for my violin instructor. Thank you again. If anyone has info or tips for the Sony pcm-d50 to get the best quality playback you can e-mail me at azarem@comcast.net
