It is frustrating to navigate with the buttons. There are 9 + 2 buttons
in the top panel interface,

, but the menu/enter button is not different from the others. I think it
should be. The up and down buttons that are used continuously should
also have been designed and located differently (for example, by
replacing them with a rotating control).

If I want to delete a recording that was just made, a long sequence of
button pressing is needed. I haven't found any easier way, is there?

However, because of the sound quality, FR-2LE will be my main recording
equipment from now on.
