Sony ICD-PX440

The recorder acts as a more experienced brother of the Sony ICD-PX333 recorder. In terms of sound recording quality, both models are almost identical, but in terms of flexibility of settings, the older brother is half a head higher.

Quality

The difference from the younger model lies in the use of two microphones in the design of the recorder, which allows you to get stereo sound without the need to connect external buttonholes. The sound is recorded in MP3 format with bitrates from 8 kbps to 192 kbps. At the minimum quality, the device is capable of recording videos for 1043 hours in a row, at the maximum — about 96 hours.

noise reduction

The recorder is equipped with an effective intelligent noise reduction system, which is designed to help reduce the stray effects of external noise. The wide frequency range covers values from 75 Hz to 20 kHz, which is enough for almost all everyday purposes.

USB

Pairing with a computer takes place via a retractable USB connector, through which the recorder can replenish the battery charge (2 AAA little finger batteries). The USB interface also allows you to use the recorder as a storage device — 4 GB of internal memory and up to 32 GB of expandable memory open up all the possibilities for this.

Decision

Sony ICD-PX440 is the best solution for recording seminars and lectures. It will also suit novice journalists — the function of activating the recorder by voice will allow you to quickly start the recorder without taking it out of your pocket.
