The Sony ICDBX112 Digital Voice Recorder has 2GB of internal flash memory, providing sufficient storage capacity for more than 500 hours of MP3 audio recordings at 8 kbps. Even at 192 kbps, the ICDBX112 can yield over 22 hours of high-quality MP3 recordings. Between the four MP3 recording rates, mic flexibility, extensive features and affordability - the ICDBX112 is a fitting digital voice recorder for chronicling class lectures, capturing live music, documenting board meetings and even just recording daily reminders and preserving oral to-do-lists.

Designed for straightforward, manageable voice and audio recordings, the ICDBX112 features a built-in monaural microphone, outfitted with Hi/Lo gain sensitivity control. It also supports Voice Operated Recording (VOR). Advantageous and truly handy, VOR allows you to audibly signal the start of a recording without ever pushing the record button. It's invaluable if you need to place the recorder out of reach or maybe across a room. It's also beneficial for eliminating the inevitable fumbling sounds that are recorded as you lift and set down a live microphone.

Conducive to quick and easy operation, the ICDBX112's LCD display is backlit and the navigation keys make it simple to move through the folders, functions and menus. Also designed for simplicity, the tactile REC & Play buttons are over-sized and centrally located on the recorder (similar to a mobile phone). The LCD screen can display the recording's date and time, as well as the remaining and elapsed time. It also works this way in playback mode. Easing any confusion as to what modes, functions and settings you're using at any point, the ICDBX112 is also equipped with revealing operational LED indicators to identify what's in use.

With a variety of features including Continuous Play, Easy Search, Noise-Cut, A-B Repeat and Digital Pitch Control, the affordable ICDBX112 is a fitting digital voice recorder for high-school and college students, as well as corporate professionals. Sony also provides Low-Cut Filter Protection, erase and divide options, the useful Add/Overwrite Recording function and the Direct Record to Play feature.

Another benefit enjoyed by the ICDBX112 user is its portability. Small, lightweight, and powered by two tiny AAA batteries, the ICDBX112 can record for an incredible 55 hours between battery changes. For more efficient time spent working in the field, Sony accented the ICDBX112 with an integrated 300mW front speaker for listening back over recordings out loud. If you prefer or need privacy, there is a 3.5mm stereo headphone output that can also be used as a line-out for connecting larger speakers. The ICDBX112 features a 3.5mm stereo mic input as well. You can use an external microphone to record in MP3 format through the ICDBX112; employing Sony's Mic Stereo Recording Function during the record makes even stereo recordings possible through the regularly monaural ICDBX112 Digital Voice Recorder.

Quality Recording
For enhanced recording quality, the ICDBX112 features an MP3 192 kbps recording rate, Low-Cut & Noise-Cut features for eliminating distracting background noise during recordings and playback. The monaural microphone also has Hi/Lo gain sensitivity settings for enhanced control over recording quality
LCD Display & Ease of Use
Greatly easing the recording process is the VOR feature, which facilitates Voice Operated Recording. The ICDBX112 is also equipped with a large, easy to read LCD display with viewing screen that facilitates speedy locating, updating and identifying files, folders and functional settings. There is a set of intuitive keys as well, which allow you to adjust several functions and quickly navigate the LCD menu display screens. Plus the Play and REC buttons are large and easy to see
Playback Features
The ICDBX112 allows users to set optimum playback conditions and then listen back through the 300mW integrated speaker or via headphones. You can use Digital Pitch Control during playback to speed up the track without disturbing the pitch. The Noise-Cut eliminates unwanted background noise and the A-B Repeat feature allows markers to be set on a recording for quick fast-forward, rewind and repeat between the set points on any given track. There's even an Easy Search feature for quickly locating your desired file
Easy Editing
With a possible 495 files stored throughout a total of 5 folders (99 files per folder), it's easy to access the file you need. The ICDBX112 can erase files, divide files, move them between folders and provide added protection to important data. The ICDBX112 also comes with Sound Organizer software for PC & Mac
Enhanced Performance & Editing
The ICDBX112 can hold 500+ hrs of recording time on its 2GB internal flash memory. Plus, when recording for lengthy periods of time, the dual AAA batteries are designed to last an impressive 55 hrs

      When I purchased this recorder I assumed that all recorders have an option to upload to the computer, this one doesn't. You would be able to seperately purchase a cable if you wish to to this, there are forums online about the process. On a positive note, there are multiple features that are easy to use such as dividing recordings, multiple folders, time and date settings, and a hold button so that you don't accidentally record over previous recordings by accident. If you are looking for a product to upload your recordings, look around a bit more, but if you want this for record and play this product is perfect.

      it's okay, not great

      Its good for recording, but when you are listening to what recorded and only want to rewind part of it, it rewind it back to the very beginning. Its working for fast forward.

        Comments about Sony ICDBX112 Digital Voice Recorder:

        This recorder was everything as promised. I use it mainly for keeping reminders and also info that I want/need to use at a later time. I do a lot of digital photography and use the device to record pertinent info about the pics I'm shooting which I later burn onto a DVD for a slideshow to watch on the TV. The recorded data is used for captions I put with the pics.
        Its usefulness and versatility are what is great about this recorder. I plan to use it more and more often. The price seened quite fair.
        The one daunting thing about it is the HUGE sheet of instructions... I was at first quite overwhelmed by them but didn't take long to get the 'intuitive' hang of things.
        Would recommend to anyone looking for such a gadget.

              Pros

              • Has files so you can separate your recordings.

              Cons

              • Does not allow you to transfer files to folders after it has been recorded.

                Comments about Sony ICDBX112 Digital Voice Recorder:

                I use this recorder for lectures in school. It has really good recording capability. When I play it back I can hear the professor clearly speaking. I don't always have time to remember to switch my folders on the recorder however, and it has no option to transfer files to and from different folders. It that was an option I would rate it 5 stars.

                                Excellent documentation for the numerous capabilities of this little recorder; this may inhibit its' usage for those lacking reading skills. As it records in state of the art MP3 formats, simply connect the headphone jack out to a computer microphone or sound card auxiliary input & instantly upload your recording to your choice of software. This baby rocks! Only improvement I could wish for is maybe down the road it could be produced in a thinner model?

                                Its good for recording, but when you are listening to what recorded and only want to rewind part of it, it rewind it back to the very beginning. Its working for fast forward.

                                  This product is pretty easy to use. Good thing too because the instructions aren't easy to follow at all! As a matter of fact they were confusing. Didn't like that part. But other than that it is easy to operate. The sound is clear and the microphone picks up sounds very well.

                                  When I purchased this recorder I assumed that all recorders have an option to upload to the computer, this one doesn't. You would be able to seperately purchase a cable if you wish to to this, there are forums online about the process. On a positive note, there are multiple features that are easy to use such as dividing recordings, multiple folders, time and date settings, and a hold button so that you don't accidentally record over previous recordings by accident. If you are looking for a product to upload your recordings, look around a bit more, but if you want this for record and play this product is perfect.

                                        This is a great product, so far I am not having any problems with it. Everything is simple and easy to use. One thing that confused me for awhile was the folder button but once you get the hang of that everything should be good.

                                        If you press the folder button it takes you through A B C D and E which are the different places you can start a recording. I have not tried recording twice in one folder for fear of recording over what I already have. So I'm not sure how that works.

                                        However, the sound is pretty good, I record my whole hour classes 3 times and the battery still didn't drop a notch. The turn off button is easy you just press up the hold and it turns off, you push it down it turns on.

                                        The only problem I have with this is the button sounds. I'm not sure how to silent those annoying beeps! Every time I press a button there is a beep so that's not really good for when the class gets quiet. And the volume button do not help it :(

                                        But I still recommend it! Its small enough to stick in your pocket if you want!

                                          you can use is at meeting, in classroom, or record you own words clearly.
                                          but note it has no PC conecter.
                                          if you want PC connection, buy PX312.

                                            When I purchased this recorder I assumed that all recorders have an option to upload to the computer, this one doesn't. You would be able to seperately purchase a cable if you wish to to this, there are forums online about the process. On a positive note, there are multiple features that are easy to use such as dividing recordings, multiple folders, time and date settings, and a hold button so that you don't accidentally record over previous recordings by accident. If you are looking for a product to upload your recordings, look around a bit more, but if you want this for record and play this product is perfect.

                                            it's okay, not great

                                            Its good for recording, but when you are listening to what recorded and only want to rewind part of it, it rewind it back to the very beginning. Its working for fast forward.

                                              This recorder was everything as promised. I use it mainly for keeping reminders and also info that I want/need to use at a later time. I do a lot of digital photography and use the device to record pertinent info about the pics I'm shooting which I later burn onto a DVD for a slideshow to watch on the TV. The recorded data is used for captions I put with the pics.
                                              Its usefulness and versatility are what is great about this recorder. I plan to use it more and more often. The price seened quite fair.
                                              The one daunting thing about it is the HUGE sheet of instructions... I was at first quite overwhelmed by them but didn't take long to get the 'intuitive' hang of things.
                                              Would recommend to anyone looking for such a gadget.

                                                  I have several likes:
                                                  The weight (very light)
                                                  The size ( very small)
                                                  Record time (more than I will ever use)
                                                  Cost ( very reasonable)

                                                      I use this recorder for lectures in school. It has really good recording capability. When I play it back I can hear the professor clearly speaking. I don't always have time to remember to switch my folders on the recorder however, and it has no option to transfer files to and from different folders. It that was an option I would rate it 5 stars.

As it records in state of the art MP3 formats, simply connect the headphone jack out to a computer microphone or sound card auxiliary input & instantly upload your recording to your choice of software. This baby rocks! Only improvement I could wish for is maybe down the road it could be produced in a thinner model?

As a matter of fact they were confusing. Didn't like that part. But other than that it is easy to operate. The sound is clear and the microphone picks up sounds very well.

You would be able to seperately purchase a cable if you wish to to this, there are forums online about the process. On a positive note, there are multiple features that are easy to use such as dividing recordings, multiple folders, time and date settings, and a hold button so that you don't accidentally record over previous recordings by accident. If you are looking for a product to upload your recordings, look around a bit more, but if you want this for record and play this product is perfect.

                                                                              This is a great product, so far I am not having any problems with it. Everything is simple and easy to use. One thing that confused me for awhile was the folder button but once you get the hang of that everything should be good.

                                                                              If you press the folder button it takes you through A B C D and E which are the different places you can start a recording. I have not tried recording twice in one folder for fear of recording over what I already have. So I'm not sure how that works.

                                                                              However, the sound is pretty good, I record my whole hour classes 3 times and the battery still didn't drop a notch. The turn off button is easy you just press up the hold and it turns off, you push it down it turns on.

                                                                              The only problem I have with this is the button sounds. I'm not sure how to silent those annoying beeps! Every time I press a button there is a beep so that's not really good for when the class gets quiet. And the volume button do not help it :(

                                                                              But I still recommend it! Its small enough to stick in your pocket if you want!
