Sound: Good mics. You have to place it in the right spot though cause the mics are sensitive. It picked up some distortion sometimes because I didn't adjust levels while the device was too close. Feature: No need for more, but it would be perfect to be able to do wav at 24/94. Ease of Use: easy. Quality: Could be more sturdy..at least he mic grill could be made of metal or something. Eats batteries, so use rechargeable batteries or look for a generic 3V ac/dc adapter. Value: For the price, it's a good sounding device. Manufacturer Support: Alesis never pick up the phone...they should also have a better instruction booklet for user manual. Overall: I should by a higher end Tascam or Zoom, but for the money, this one has enough features. Make sure you use protective case at all times! I really wish it would be sturdier, but the plastic coating is a scratch proof.

Sound: I'm hard to please when it comes to sound, and I wasn't expecting a super sound from a small inexpensive handheld recorder; however, I am well pleased with the sound quality,especially when played back through a studio system. Feature: You can certainly pay more for more "bells and whistles" but I got what I wanted and needed with the PalmTrack. It fits in my pocket and will automaticly set your record level - two of the features i wanted most. Ease of Use: I don't know how you can get any easier or simpler to use. Just turn it on and hit record. Quality: I have always like Alesis for a good "bang for the buck". The PalmTrack is also a good product. My only concern was in the little plastic door that holds the "SD" card. it has no real latch to hold it closed, only little plastic bumps on the door. It works, however I don't think it would be a good idea to continually open and close the door. Value: As far as i am concerned, this is an excellent product for the price. The quality to price ratio is super. I always "comparitive shop" and the PalmTrack was my pick for an inexpensive handheld. Most of the online music equipment stores are pretty close in price. For the PalmTrack, ZZounds beat their competition by a lot. Manufacturer Support: I have not had to talk with the folks at Alesis for over ten years, so I can't say how they are to work with today. back when i did have a question they were helpful. The Wow Factor: You can pay a lot more for more "sex appeal", but the PalmTrack does what it was designed to do. Overall: The PalmTrack is an all-in-one hand size digital recorder; great for getting music quickly and easily. That's what it does; and very well. It will give you a great demo or recording live shows. It won't take the place of a million dollar studio, but for what it does, it's great.
