And now, it seems, Fostex have done it again with the launch of the new FR-2LE - a compact audio recorder designed from the ground-up to meet the needs of professionals in the field. For a start, the FR-2LE records to CompactFlash in Broadcast WAV Format (BWF) at 24bit 96kHz quality. It’s equipped with two professional phantom powered XLR microphone inputs (XLR-phone combo) complete with precise control over the recording level. There’s even an MP3 mode and built-in stereo microphones designed for interviews. Feature rich and elegant in operation, the pedigree of the new FR-2LE looks assured.Fostex continue to develop quality products for Professionals and Hifi enthusiasts.

Fostex continue to develop quality products for Professionals and Hifi enthusiasts. If you continue using this website, we will assume that you are happy about that. Is it perfect for location sound recording. This places it halfway between its sturdier big brother and the many less expensive pocket recorders on the market (as well as the Tascam HDP2). A far cry, then, from the high?end esoteric field gear made by Nagra and Sound Devices, but certainly not a bargain?basement recorder. The FR2LE is delivered with a carrying strap, 'wall wart' power supply, remote control, draw?string carrying bag and instruction manual. Replacing the display on the front is the Compact Flash (CF) slot, underneath which are situated the microphone trim controls and the monitor level control. To the right of these are Fostex's standard Rec Stby (for record standby') and Rec buttons, with their operation lights and LED level meters above. These LEDs replace the function of the front-panel display in giving a clear indication of levels when using the FR2LE over the shoulder. The dual?

concentric input level control is on the bottom?right corner, to the right of the record button. This has been improved from that of the FR2, and is easier to adjust with the thumb once the levels and balance are set. To the right of the display is the main control panel with all the primary operation keys. Also on the top panel are two small holes, which contain a pair of small omnidirectional microphone capsules for 'note taking' purposes. The remote duplicates the Rec Stby and Rec buttons and also has a cue Mark button, plus a Velcro strip for easy fixing to the carrying strap or similar. The XLRs are microphone?level sockets and the jacks are line?level sockets. A quick flick of the switch turns the machine on, but it must be held in order to turn it off, a feature that helps you to avoid accidental power?offs. A few more connections are here too, including a 3.5mm headphone socket, a USB connection for downloading data to a computer, and a pair of phono sockets for monitor line out. On the bottom of the unit is a small loudspeaker for confidence monitoring. It works fine for this purpose, as long as you don't sit it on anything soft! This contains a plug?in box that takes four alkaline or rechargeable AA batteries, for about four hours' running time. The box can also be replaced by a Tamiya 7.2V NiMH battery pack for about eight hours' use. If you use the Tamiya, a fast charger is available that can be powered from the mains or via a car's 'lighter' socket. My choice would be to use the FR2LE with the Tamiya packs and a fast charger, and to save the less powerful AA battery box for emergencies. These range from 192kbps MP3 up to 24-bit, 96kHz BWF (Broadcast Wave format) and almost everything inbetween. Although the FR2LE is superficially very similar to the FR2, it does do things a little differently. As the machine is so much smaller, a lot of the setup is carried out using the menu system. This can lead to slip?

ups if you're not careful: I made a very interesting recording using the internal omnidirectional mics, simply because I forgot to enter the menu and select 'input'. I still had the machines set to 'I.Mic.H' (left internal microphone, high gain). Once you get used to the menu layout, though, it's easy enough to set up. Pressing the Rec Stby button puts the machine into standby mode, allowing you to monitor the incoming signal. If you have activated 'pre?record' mode, the FR2LE also starts recording into its buffer memory. Pressing Rec starts the recording, first reading out the buffer onto the CF card, with the rest of the recording following. This is ideal if you don't want to risk missing the first word or note of a take. To stop the recording, you press Rec Stby again, the machine finishes reading the buffer memory onto the CF card and stops. Each card can only be formatted for a particular sample rate, which means that you need to have several cards pre?formatted if you often use different sample rates or channel configurations. Another quirk of the system is that you can't delete individual files from the card. You can only delete files by re?formatting the CF card entirely (preferably after you have downloaded the files to your computer). The headphones I use are the Sennheiser HD 25?1 which are 70? impedance and 120dB efficient, giving a high monitoring level for a low volume setting. Whatever headphones you choose for yourself, look carefully at the impedance and efficiency before choosing, as this will help to maximise battery life. Note the front?mounted screen. Being accustomed to the original FR2, there were a few things that threw me at first but made working easier in practice, while some other tasks have become a bit more involved and not so easy due to the reliance on menus.

The level control is certainly an improvement over the original FR2, being very easily adjustable, and the addition of a single button-press to return to the start of a recording is great for reviewing takes. It doubles the battery life of the higher?end FR2 from two to four hours when using four alkaline AA batteries and runs for eight hours using a Tamiya battery. This makes it seriously usable in the field, while the original FR2 needed at least the Tamiya battery to be of much use in extended sessions. For serious recording all you need to add is the Tamiya batteries and a good outdoor case from someone like KT Systems. It's also not a pocket recorder, so the built?in microphones are really just for 'note taking'. Although it was originally aimed at the radio reporter market, it fulfils an excellent role as a budget location recording machine. It's not too small and fiddly, but not too large to be unwieldy. Coupled with a pair of decent condenser microphones it will produce very fine results in many situations. Unlike its bigger brother, the FR2LE also comes complete with mains PSU, which is a boon in many situations. All in all, the FR2LE is ideal for the musician on location, the videographer who wants high-quality sound recorded off?camera for sync in the edit, or even the wildlife recordist on a budget. If you want timecode, the Tascam HDP2 or the original FR2 with timecode board are worth looking at, but at a higher price level for the features. Pros XLR mic inputs with 48V phantom power. Memory buffer means you never need miss the start of a take. Good ergonomics and easy to use. No timecode. It's not a tiny, fiddly pocket recorder, but a unit that can easily be used for location recording. If you want a quality field recorder on a budget, it's well worth considering.

You should compare usability and sound quality carefully, ideally before committing to a purchase. For a number of recorders, including the Marantz PMD660, the Zoom H2 and the Edirol R09, customised versions of this tutorial are available here.These are indicated by a box like this. Typically the 'edit' link above such a section will let you edit that shared section. When editing a shared section, you need to bear in mind that the section is used across different tutorials, and e.g. you should not include anything device specific.Typically, an audio recording kit around the Fostex FR2LE might include:You need to have:The radio mics need 2 x AA batteries in the transmitter and 2 x AA in the receiver, i.e. you need 8 AA batteries for a full charge. Ideally you would use rechargables - the EW100 G2 series runs very well off rechargeables.All equipment has a battery life gauge to show remaining battery life. All important controls for recording are situated on the front of the recorder.If the level shown on the level meters is too low or too high, use the recording level control to adjust this.
) It allows you to check the input levels and can be used to stop recording. It can also adjust the output levels of the internal speakers. Hold the button down for a few seconds for the light to stay on, press again to turn off. This allows you to adjust the screen contrast. Using shift with the menu button enters you into a quick setup mode. Pressing this button with shift allows you to go to the previous cue point if any are set. Pressing this button with shift allows you to go to the next cue point if any are set. Used with shift it will lock the panel. To turn off hold the power switch up for two seconds. For example, the recording stops half-way through the talk displaying a screen which reads 'Disk Full. Press Enter to return to the main menu'. You can do this by pressing 'Menu', then selecting 'Disk', and then 'Reformat'. This will clear all files from the memory card. It will also, however, reset the Fostex settings so you will have to enter them again. (You want the settings to be BFW44-16.). It does not matter too much if there is a small break in the talk. This is why it is important to LISTEN TO THE RECORDING AS IT IS HAPPENING wherever possible.If you use a power socket, make sure that nobdoy will trip over the cable - use gaffer tape to tape down the cable if necessary.To connect the radio mics to the recorder insert the large silver plug (XLR cable) into the ANALOG IN connectors and the smaller end connects to the reciever. Use just the L input for one mic; use and L and R if you have two mics.Also connect your headphones to the phones connection on the right hand side of the recorder.The flap lifts by squeezing either side to release it. If not, change frequency (see the trouble shooting below). With the sensitivity set to say -6dB, you will find it quite easy to distort mic signal (the yellow led on the front will flash). A good, conservative setting is -20dB.

Again you should explore this and see how it affects the input stage of the recorder (see below). Many recording devices expect a mic level, so it is safer to set the 'AF out' level to -12dB (mic level). The screen will turn on and make sure that in the bottom right of the screen it says BWF 44-16. This is the correct format for recording. Otherwise it could be set to record from the internal microphones. Does the sound in the headphones disappear. If not, you are recording from the internal mics. Also, you can gently scratch the external mics, e.g. on the handle, or gently tap the mic itself: Do you hear this in the headphones. If yes, then you are recording from the external mics as you should be.If they are on the same wave length both screens should be showing the activity coming through the clip mic. Now turn on the REC STBY switch on the front of the field audio recorder and the same activity should be shown on the recorder screen.They should coincide with the activity coming through the microphone. You should also hear the activity coming through the headphones. Try testing that the internal microphone is not picking up any sound by tapping on those. They should not register anything.Check the 'sound chain':If not, check that it is turned on and not on mute and that the mic is properly connected. If not, check radio reception. If not, check the cables are connected properly. Check the volume control for the headphones. You must never have two microphones transmitting on the same frequency. (Two receivers receiving signals from the same microphone is, however, fine.) Otherwise on the lapel of a jacket, or onto the shirt. A third of the way down the shirt is aEither the trouser pocket or belt are both good positions. If your speaker is well animated make sure the transmitterThis allows you to listen through the headphones and watch the levels on both the receiver and recorder. Monitor the audio carefully and pay attention to any peaks in the sound.
Be aware that if the speaker is going to be giving a lecture but they are speaking at a normal level before, they will adjust their own personal voice levels when it comes to the lecture.If anything is wrong you can still go back to the speaker and adjust things.You will not be able to see levels of audio on the recorder as well if the switch is not on.Talk loudly into the microphone. Do the mic peak indicators light up (for the relevant channel). If so, reduce the mic trim (turn counter-clockwise). If not, you are fine. Talk into the microphone as if you were giving a lecture and turn up the recording level control until the recording level display shows goods activity, with green leds lighting up reasonably often at -12dB, very occasionally at -6dB, but never higher. This is not a problem as long as the mic peak indicators (9) do not light up when you speak into the mic loudly!Does it come through the headphones clearly. Or is it muffled or can you hear extraneous sounds. If so, see the trouble shooting section.You can adjust the volume by altering the monitor control next to the input controls on the front of the recorder (button 8).You have plenty of space on the memory card, so there is no harm in starting the recording 10 minutes early. From experience: It is a common problem to miss the start of the event and people may suddenly start to talk while you were not watching. So just start recording in good time.If you are recording on location and have the ability to start recording again listen out for unwanted sounds that are out of your control, such as trains going past, dogs barking etc.You should see the light come on within the button and the time on the screen should start running. You will also notice a record symbol in the top right of the screen.The REC STBY switch will also stop recording. The speaker might say a nice short clip that you can use as a sound bite.Speakers can easily wonder off with your mic.
Also make sure that you have got an appropriate release form signed by the speaker. Just after the talk may be a good occasion to get this done.You can then drag your recordingsComputers can crash, and you do not want to loose your recording. Generally speaking, you would only delete the raw recording from the memory card when you have got a backup on CD or DVD.Original document written 29th November 2007. Create one here.

To start viewing messages,So, I have a fostex fr2-le and recently bought a sound devices mixpre. Not mix-pre D, but the first version. In that case I should only need xlr-Trs cable. I've been reading several threads, but cant find the proper answer. Thank you! PedroAll you need is an appropriate cable, 3.5mm stereo to two 2-conductor phone plugs in this case. - GregWe know the output for the MixPre. Even if the mic level inputs are used, a 50dB pad is probably excessive.With a short cable (3' or less), there's no noise or degredation of signal. I never had any issues with recordings made that way, and it left the XLR outs on the MixPre open for connecting to a camera if I needed to. That's crucial in the field, to be able to listen from the recorder but also to listen directly from the mixer when necessary.

Nathan Moody 4.0 out of 5 stars While the H2 is my go-to, always-in-the-bag recorder, its mic preamp is so noisy as to be useless for more exacting recording using external microphones. But I'm a hobbyist field recordist, musician, and sound designer, so I couldn't spend huge sums on a more serious recorder. Enter the Fostex FR2-LE. Its preamps are solid, and the audio quality is far and away the best for its price range.truly impressive for such a low-cost device. Nice! It's small enough that it can fit into a fanny pack or small satchel (I modified a surplus army first-aid shoulder bag so I could route the cables out to the side).it's about the size of a large-format hardbound novel. Sure, the case feels plasticky and wouldn't withstand a drop onto concrete. The control layout is diffuse, and the side (well, top, when used in the bag) gain LED's are hard to see in bright daylight. But such are the compromises for bringing the cost of this unit down. I use this unit primarily for collecting samples for sound design and musical projects, using mics that include shotgun, contact, large-diaphragm condensers, and dynamic. This is a serious, just-shy-of-pro tool that can handle everything but harsh environments and timecode-based video sync. I've been supremely happy with it from a value standpoint, and (of course) the clarity and presence of the final audio result.Please try again later. Please try again later. Thomas A. Tellesbo 5.0 out of 5 stars That being said, I spent innumerable hours researching portable digital recorders and found that I was continually routed to the same three manufacturers. More research, and (of course) budget constraints led me to the easy decision to purchase the FR2LE. The sound recorded, to my untrained ear and the use of relatively inexpensive dynamic microphones, provides so much more than I am capable of asking of it at the present time.
the menus seem intuitive, controls all simply placed, retrieval of recorded material to PC is quick and painless, the unit is small and light fitting very easily and handily in a smallish shoulder bag. I have much to learn and am pleased that I chose this machine to facilitate that process.Please try again later. Please try again later. I just have one issue. I am often recording on just one channel. The files end up being stereo, with one channel muted. Is there a way to record in mono, or at least record the signal on both channels. I have been looking into the menus, the manual, forums and the Fostex website but haven't found the answer to this question. My recorder says it has version 1.30.I just have one issue. I am often recording on just one channel. The files end up being stereo, with one channel muted. Is there a way to record in mono, or at least record the signal on both channels. I have been looking into the menus, the manual, forums and the Fostex website but haven't found the answer to this question. My recorder says it has version 1.30. I have just read through the manual and can see no mention at all of mono files. First - I would suggest you go to the Fostex website and upgrade the firmware to the latest version. You should do this anyway - and they may have added the mono file option in the menu. If it still does not do this, ask Fostex if they can include this on the next firmware upgrade. Fostex are pretty good. The FR-2LE is a very nice machine. In the meantime you will have to copy the file into your DAW, spit the file into separate tracks and delete the one with no recording. I hope this helps.That's strange as they used to be very quick with this. I would e-mail Fostex support and tell them this and also ask the question about mono files. Actually this is important for radio reporters who only want to record mono interviews and mono files take up half the space of stereo ones and will, therefore, double the capacity of the CF card.
So it's a lot more people than just you who would like mono files. Let us know how you get on.Memory is affordable these days so it's a minor inconvenience IMHO. When recording with one mic, delete the unused track in your favorite audio editing software and save as a PCM mono file.This is easy in some NLEs, Sony Vegas for instance. That said, a recorder with mono capabilities is certainly handy. I know for fact the Marantz DARs have a 'mono' (single track) mode. I think the of the Tascam DR-100 may, but I'm not totally sure.Will only display one track on the LCD.Thanks to you and everybody who contributed.I just came across this topic while searching for an answer to the same question.
