“Sound is 50% of the experience but it sometimes only gets 1% of the budget.” Giles Packham, Composer
The LS-P4 packs the advanced technology of the flagship LS series into a portable size. The LS-P series makes high-resolution audio recording possible that goes beyond the quality of music CDs, and the LS-P4 is the first linear PCM recorder compatible with the FLAC format recording which reduces file size without any drop in quality. Not only can you record musical performances both instrumental and choral, but its compact size benefits you when recording outdoors. You can also witlessly play back recorded audio with Bluetooth capable speakers or headphones.
Simply install the free Olympus Audio Controller BT app on your Android-Compatible Smartphone and you can then use your mobile device as a remote control to start and stop audio recording on your LS-P4.
The LS-P4 supports linear PCM recording at rates of 24 bits and sampling frequencies of 96kHz – far surpassing the 44.1kHz/16 bits of CD-quality audio.
For voice recording, this audio recorder features the latest in 2-microphone noise cancellation to give you clearer results – this is perfect for noisy environments such as event venues, train stations, festivals and more - simply select the NOISY mode in the RecScene menu. Activate the Low-Cut Filter to reduce background noise such as air conditioners or projectors while continuing to capture lower frequency conversations or other audio.
When you are recording your music using the manual recording level, you also have an option of using the Limiter function which prevents unwanted sound clipping. If the input level surpasses the maximum recording level, the Limiter will then compress the peak level.
Overlay original overlay original sound (own recorded) and sound from CDs and instrumentals. Also using the fade-in/fade-out functionality you can gradually increases the volume of the sound from the first second of the sound source, and reduces volume over the last second.
