Portable digital recording in an even smaller, more affordable package. Click to enlarge.

Stereo electret condenser mics for high-sensitivity recordings, plus an external mic input.

Adjustable mic level and line input.

Musicians will appreciate the playback functions of the DR-07, including the ability to loop MP3s and slow them down without changing the pitch. External microphones and sources can be recorded through the mic/line input, and the recorder offers analog limiting, low cut and auto gain setting for great-sounding audio. But for great-sounding recordings, the compact DR-07 is all you need.

Built-in Mic
The DR-07 features a pair of built-in stereo electret condenser mics, for instant, high-sensitivity stereo recordings. Thanks to the adjustable input level, it's a great choice for quiet or loud applications, from simple songwriting with a guitar to recording a metal band rehearsal.

SD and SD-HC Support
Record to SD cards (including the included 2GB card) or add a little more recording time with high-capacity SD-HC cards up to 32GB.

Simple File Transfer
Using the USB 2.0 jack, file transfer is a breeze. Simply connect to your PC and drag-and-drop.

Mic/Line Input
Use an external microphone or line input device using the 3.5mm line and mic inputs.

The 3.5mm line output works with headphones or for sending to stereos/monitors/etc.

Keep It Clean
The DR-07 has plenty of features to ensure your audio doesn't end up a distorted mess. The switchable low cut filter helps avoid rumble during field applications or recording bass-heavy material, the analog limiter keeps the dynamics in check, and the auto gain setting helps avoid preamp distortion from the get-go.

MP3 or WAV Recording
The DR-07 writes WAV files at 44.1 or 48kHz, 16 or 24-bit formats. But you don't always need that for a scratch practice recording, grabbing an interview or lecture, etc. MP3 file recording lets you record directly to MP3 format, from 32kbps to 320 kbps, thus saving you a wealth of space on that SD card.

Variable-Speed Audition
Slow down playback without changing the pitch--handy for learning or studying passages, transcribing interviews, or other uses.

Ultra-Portable
The DR-07 is ready to go anywhere, since it's powered by two AA batteries (you can add the optional PS-P520 power adapter to power from a wall outlet).

It weighs just 4.4 ounces--with batteries--and is 2.2 x 5.3 x 1.1 inches in size.
