 Hi Peter, I tried recording bats using the internal mics (which are a vara=
int of the EM-172) of the PCM-M10 a couple of years ago. It worked reasonab=
ly good for bat species calling at relatively low frequencies below about 3=
0 kHz.


 Here is a recording of the common noctule (Nyctalus noctula) from Germany:

> Also, is there a recorder in the same price range that can record at 192k=

 I'm not aware of such a recorder, except of the more expensive Tascam DR-6=
80 MkII and Tascam DR-701D.


 You might perhaps instead use an USB audio interface such as the Roland Qu=
adCapture (http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.php?ProductId=3D=
1166), which works fine at 192 kHz.
