About this deal

I saw this tiny thing on a musician-centric discord. A few people seemed happy with theirs, so I was curious. I accordingly did a search and good ol' Thomann had one of the keenest prices. They're a reputable supplier, so that sealed the deal. In the box with the review unit were two rechargeable Ni‑MAAA batteries, a multilingual Basic Manual and a micro USB to USB‑A 2.0 adaptor. The LS‑P4 used only one battery, and the idea here is to allow longer running time when using Bluetooth (and longer still when not). The batteries are rechargeable and came fully charged — the device itself acts as a USB‑powered battery charger, which is a nice touch — and I like that spare batteries are cheap and readily available. OM System kindly sent their WJ2 wind jammer and a foam carry/storage pouch to help with testing, though these are not included in the price. There’s support for up to 2TB micro‑SD XC Type 1 cards, and while no card is supplied, there is 16GB of storage built in so you have everything you need to get up and running. Submit a valuation request and we'll provide guide prices with no delay. Plus, we'll collect your gear from your home or work for FREE.

The recordings can be organised via custom folders, you can change the folders and file names using the DVR.Remote smartphone app. Each of your recorded clips can be easily searchable thanks to the calendar format, this automatically marks each recording with a date and is displayed in a calendar format Multiple intelligent recording modes are available, including Auto, Manual and Smart recording modes. Each can be used for creating a customised sound recording The Intelligent Auto mode can automatically adjust sound levels dynamically, while the Manual mode allows for fine-tuning of the recording levels to match the audio source volume. Smart recording assists in achieving the optimum sound level, this is set by listening to the environment before recording. Mit den Aufnahmeergebnissen bin ich auch extrem zufrieden. Vor allem weil es relativ unkompliziert ist. Es gibt verschiedene Voreinstellungen oder den SMART Modus, (wenn man die Einstellungen nicht manuell vornehmen möchte). Man hat wenig Aufwand, aber sehr schnell eine gute Aufnahme.Smart volume control: A Smart audio control analyses sound levels for a few seconds and then sets the recording volume accordingly Physically the new model looks much as before, with three microphones at the front, a small square dot matrix display, and the same button layout. Its Tresmic II system provides zoomable stereo output, ranging from a wide 180° soundstage to focusing narrowly in front of the device, shotgun-style. You can record in qualities up to 96KHz / 24-bit, using either the lossy MP3 format, lossless compressed FLAC, or uncompressed WAV.

My initial impression was "that's... REALLY small". It sits completely on the palm of my hand. The controls are tiny and I haven't completely got the hang of pressing the buttons after trimming my nails. However, I shall persist. Produced with a 16GB built-in memory capacity, the LS-P5 can record up to 7 hours of 96kHz/24-bit Hi-Res audio or a large 21 hours in CD quality. Coupled with the long battery life, you have the potential to record a whole day of audio without stopping to adjust memory cards. For those who will need to capture more than the built-in storage capacity will tolerate, there is a Micro SD Card slot available. This slot can hold a Micro SD card up to 2TB and can give you up to 125x more storage capacity.In studio environments and recording directly into your laptop, the LS-P5 can be used as a USB microphone and speaker. This mode is perfect for streaming or virtual online meetings. Music: You can use the device as a high-res audio player, by copying music files into a standard Artist/Album folder structure The bright sound mode has been created and designed for optimal voice recording, this can be ideal for use when recording podcasts, or any spoken word. This mode records with elevated mid to high-range levels, letting you capture audio while minimising the effects of ambient sounds.
