( 01 / 01 )Olympus LS-P1Linear PCMRecorder

Clear sound – Pure enjoyment
Get the most advanced microphones to date with the LS-P1 digital audio recorder: their 90° construction provides a great stereo feel. What’s more, the high quality of their build means you’ll enjoy clear sound with low noise. All of this and more is packed in a super-small body that gives you outstanding recordings – from music to meetings.
Smooth sound – Better-than-CD quality
The LS-P1 supports linear PCM recording at rates of up to 24 bits and sampling frequencies as high as 96kHz – far surpassing the 44.1kHz/16 bits of CD-quality audio. When you select this bit rate and sampling frequency, you can readily make a CD of your own recordings.
Accurate recording.
Enjoy the most accurate stereo sound possible without any signal deterioration thanks to the high-quality microphone amplifier. It uses an advanced amplifier circuit to suppress interference – for original stereo sound audio recording from a compact device. OLYMPUS engineers have also gone even further to develop a new codec, so you have even clearer sound quality with less noise during AD/DA music conversion.
Pleasurable use
The powerful technology on the inside is encased in a sleek metal body on the outside – making the stylishly compact LS-P1 a PCM recorder that you’ll enjoy using with every press of a button, for every song or session. Because it’s so robust and cutting-edge, you’ll want to take this pocket-sized audio recorder with you wherever you go – especially also thanks to Direct USB capability for easy data storage and transfer.
