thanks Mike. I actually use the Korg MR2 as a hand held & like it. Part of =
the reason i'm researching some of the newer hand held's is because a pal (=
Amy) is looking for one & this was one of the models that I hadn't actually=
used myself.
What did you think to the built in mics ?
The other models that were under consideration for my pal are the Tascam DR=
-100 & the Olympus LS-100. Some of the comments online seem to say the pre-=
amps are better on the R-26 for example.
ta,
Jez
