SonicLab: Edirol R-09HR Portable Recorder First Look

At MESSE this year (2008), we saw the introduction of the new R-09HR, a new, improved higher resolution version of the same unit. As well as the improved resolution of up to 96kHz/24bit there are a number of other changes and enhancements.

We persuaded Andy Mac, normally the man behind the camera here at Sonicstate.com, to take a closer look at the new device.
