Sony have upped the Dictaphone stakes with their new PCM-M10 which is full of features and also acts as a passable music player with a built-in speaker.
It boasts and ‘entry-level’ price which makes these features even sweeter: the electret condenser stereo microphones, 4GB of internal flash memory, a microSD/Memory Stick Micro slot, cross-memory recording, digital pitch control, digital limiter, low-cut filter, track mark functions, a 5-second pre-recording buffer and A-B repeat capability.
From the journalist to amateur musician, everyone can make use for the uploading and downloading of WAV and MP3 files, all in a durable metal case and long battery life provided by standard AA batteries. Slated for release in the next few weeks, the PCM-M10 will cost around £275.
