Overall very cool

Comments about Olympus DM-2 Digital Voice Recorder:

The stereo sound is very interesting. It pinpoints the direction of sound very well.

The only thing I wish it had was more mic sensitivity options. There is low, medium, and loud and I find the gap between Low and Medium to be a bit too much. Medium is very, very sensitive to sounds far away and close up.

The directional zoom mic is a cool feature. It works relatively well.
