 The First Pocket-Sized mp3 Recorder Suitable for Live Music April 13, 2008
Epicure (USA)
30 out of 33 found this review helpful
This remarkable little mp3 recorder is by no means just a voice recorder--it makes excellent, high-quality recordings of live music--an absolute first for any device this small. The built-in stereo mics are not bad for what they are, but when I plugged in my little SONY electret condenser mic I produced recordings of essentially the same quality as I got with my very much larger and very cheesily-made EDIROL R1 PRO at 3 times the price.
Excellent for Recording Classes or Meetings April 6, 2008

This Sony recorder is what I had been hoping for. I use it for recording my evening classes, two hours at a shot. The format is .mp3, so that Windows Media Player immediately starts playback with a mouse click, with no format conversion. The built-in USB connection makes it seem like a flash drive. The stereo sound is excellent. It uses a single AAA battery, rechargeable in my case. The control buttons are spread out, not "multi-tasked". The display is small, but still easy to interpret. The drag-and-drop provides a familiar way to copy or move the recorded files onto my computer.
Check SONY STYLE ICD-UX80 July 28, 2008

wanted stereo MP3 recorder for recording live music and recording my own practice music when I am playing myself. It records very well with internal microphones. Recording is slightly better for low frequencies if I record with external stereo microphone SONY ECM-DS30P ($49.99). It records even better if you directly feed audio in to microphone input and selecting it as "LINE IN" using Audio Line Out of other system.
I am all happy with this device. I purchased it from "SONY STYLE" store for $99.97. I was surprised by this price as compared to what I have seen on the Internet. I purchased two of the ICD-UX80. One to give as a gift to a music lover friend of mine. Store salesman told me that this product is being obsoleted, anything in the store with the price ending with xx.X7 is obsoleted. If the price ends with xx.x9 then it is a current production item. Don't be fooled by the sticker price on the box. Ask salesman to check the price on the cash register using barcode. Anyway I wanted it so I purchased it and I am glad I did. May be SONY is comming up with a better new model than this one, soon.
Although it can safely record 2 hours of stereo music at 192Kb/sec on a fresh AAA alkaline battery I wish SONY had designed it for AA alkaline battery which has two and half times more energy than AAA and would have given recording time of more that 5 hours on one stretch. I hope they design their new model using AA batteries. So what if it gets little bigger/thicker in size. It is too small to begin with. A slightly larger model will also have better performance built-in microphones like they have on other models.
Buy it, you'll like it May 9, 2008

I bought this device primarily for use with Dragon Naturally Speaking Nine Preferred, with which it works quite well.
I was pleasantly surprised, no, make that astounded, at how well it records live music.
The only shortcoming I've found is that battery life isn't nearly as long as advertised, but I would have bought it anyway had I known.
It's hard to believe that something this small could produce such big results.
great all purpose recorder (UX 70) August 22, 2008

I practice law and had tried digital recording with the older Olympus DSS 30. I liked digital but it really was not versatile enough (format, etc). I relied mainly on mini-cassette dictation but needed a better system without spending 300-400 + on a system. I also use "Dragon Naturally Speaking" and after some research decided to try the Sony UX 70 (a lighter version of the UX 80). What I discovered was that MP3 based dictation answered all of my needs - dictation, conference recording, hearing recording (including hearings where a witness was testifying over a speakerphone). The MP3 format is universal. I also purchased the Sony foot pedal with digital voice editor software. I can send this stuff by e-mail or by "CITRIX" based file transfer programs ([...]). I can also use the recorder as a "flash drive" and transport word, excel, etc. Also photos and anything else you would put on a flash drive. The small speaker on the recorder is not really loud but I assume that it is meant to hold up to your ear so that you can "discretely" listen to what you have dictated. With earphones, the sound of music is good. I paid about $[...] for mine and it does everything that a system costing several hundred does. I know, because I have tried them.
