Critic Reviews

4MS WAV Recorder


soundonsound.com

The 4ms WAV Recorder is a compact and functional module that excels in capturing high-quality audio but suffers from some usability quirks. While it offers solid features like dual-channel recording and straightforward operation, the lack of intuitive navigation for file selection can be frustrating, especially during live performances. The absence of a dedicated rewind or delete function further complicates matters. Despite these drawbacks, the sound quality is commendable, making it a useful tool for both studio and live settings. Given its compact design and decent price, the 4ms WAV Recorder has potential but may not meet the demands of every musician.
