Handheld convenience
The XV1-R is compact and light, so you can carry it with you anywhere-to gigs, rehearsals, meetings, concerts, or a songwriting retreat!
Time-saving recording profiles
XV1-R offers a selection of perfectly tweaked presets for common recording scenarios: "Production" for pristine music and media capture; "General" for high quality ambient, voice or music recordings; "Meeting", optimized for meetings and lectures; "Voice Memo" for minimum file size speech; and "Concert", transparent encoding of music and media with auto level enabled.
Take control
The front of the XV1-R deploys an intuitive layout of controls, which users can master quickly and easily.
Stellar stereo

Onboard effects
Onboard effects help you capture audio appropriately for each situation. Low cut allows you to remove rumble from the sound, Gate filters out background noise, Compressor evens out the spikes in volume, and Limiter prevents the loudest sounds from distorting and clipping.
Tripod mount socket
A socket on the underside of the unit enables you to attach the recorder to tripods and DSLR cameras, expanding your options for placement of the XV1-R during recording.
Good memory
XV1-R can record on MicroSD cards between 2 GB and 128 GB.
Overdub
A handy Overdub features allows you to record on top of what you've already recorded. This allows you to add a harmony, add a commentary, or even create several layers to demo a song!
Audio for video
The XV1-R can be mounted on top of a DSLR and used as a high-quality stereo sound recording device for video. Conveniently, the unit can generate slate tones which can later be used to accurately sync the audio and video in editing.
On-board speaker
The on-board speaker is handy for moments when you don't have headphones or earphones nearby, or want to check or identify recordings.
