Thank you for the real test! I almost bought this recorder on the considerent that is Sony and must be better than similar recorders. Now i know that it is not the case.

Awesome video. But for a newbie like me, can anyone recommend a god audio setting that you really cannot go wrong with when using a Lav Mic?

Wow, the MP3 has such noticeable artifacts and weird compression compared to the much better WAV

At 5:15 there is clipping, have you figured out how to avoid that? I just got mine and I'm encountering a major clipping problem with it, I tend to speak very loud (you can hear that in the videos on my channel, lol.) I've experimented with various positioning of the external microphone (Shure MVL) and it makes no difference, the only way to reduce the clipping is setting the ext-in to the voice-low setting, but that is annoying to always need to increase the levels later in post-production.

FYI, I had a Sony UX560 before upgrading to the Sony UX570, and the 560 never had any such clipping problems, but had other sound-quality issues.

Whatever comes out of the headphone jack on your phone is what this will record.

Hey man !! Nice review!! One question!! My use is just for the live gigs that we perform , we need to have a recording from the mixer . Is it good for that ?? Any settings for that !!

@tdcattech 10 ай бұрын

This is probably not the best option for that. You’re paying here for specific ‘dictaphone’ features. You’d be better to search out a recorder with digital or balanced XLR in to take from the desk and definitely manual input levels.

I just saw your channel. Do you know how this compares to the Sony PCM-A10?

@tdcattech 3 жыл бұрын

I've never used it but it's getting into the territory of a basic field recorder rather than a dictaphone. It's over twice the price and offers 96K recording and adjustable stereo mics for A-B and X-Y configuration. I imagine it doesn't have the file organisation options of dictaphone because these wouldn't be needed on a field recorder (reviewing a few seconds etc.). The UX570 is decent but I would hope this is better!

Can it record to LAV and Internal Mic's simultaneously as a backup?

@tdcattech 4 жыл бұрын

No. One or the other. As soon as you plug in a device, it detects it and gives you the option of selecting mic or line in. Internal mics are disabled.

@TDCatTech Who has the best sound quality to record university lectures,this or the Sony ICD-TX650?

@tdcattech 2 жыл бұрын

The 650 is very convenient but the 570 definitely wins in both sound quality and features.

@stefos6431 2 жыл бұрын

Dictaphones are a dedicated device where phones are now trying to be cameras, phones, recorders, calculators and everything else under the sun....not a good idea unless you can FULLY back it up. Also, there are times I want to make notes for myself or attend a lecture and want to free up my smartphone to use should it be needed. :) P.S. Good testing but ultimately this is a dictaphone and not a concert or music session recorder.

I have Boya-M1 ...And Record With Phone application called RecForge ,,.. So If I Bought Sony Recorder is there any much difference??

@tdcattech 3 жыл бұрын

Quality wise, no. Phones generally do a great job. A device like this gives you an independent dedicated recorder which can be a massive benefit to some.

Would this be good for a simple podcast ? Or is the zoom h4n better for that

@tdcattech 3 жыл бұрын

I'd say the Zoom would make life easier as you have full manual level control and it probably sounds better too. You could do the job with a recorder like this but the settings are a bit restrictive.
