Sony’s new IC voice recorder is very practical and easy-to-use. Because of their new system called “3 microphone system”, you can select the most appropriate microphone mode according to the size of the venue or the recording object. If you think it’s difficult to adjust the setting by yourself, you can make the setting “Omakase Voice” (Automatic Voice Adjuster).

It has a large LCD screen and USB connection, so it makes data transfer very easy. The “ICD-SX1000″ model plays high-resolution audio, which is higher quality than music CDs (44.1kHz/16Bit).
