Record faint audio sources without capturing excessive background noise, thanks to the highly sensitive, low-noise S-Microphone. Even the sound of birds twittering in the distance can be captured naturally and clearly.

Recording someone talking? Switch on Auto Voice Recording to optimize audio capture settings for vocal frequencies. The result is a purer recording with less background noise and a reduced chance of audio loss caused by unsuitable microphone settings.

The Auto Music Recording optimizes audio capture settings for music frequencies. It reduces the impact of recording mistakes caused by incorrect microphone sensitivity settings and delivers crisp, high-quality audio.

The UX570 makes it easy to locate the playback point you need. Short-range skipping is a breeze with Easy Search, which enables you to go back three seconds or forward 10 seconds with the click of a button.

Long-range skipping is simple, too. You can easily find the important sections of your meeting, seminar, or lecture by using Time Jump to skip each 10% of the total playback time of a recording.

Thanks to Playback Normalization, you can listen clearly even when you unexpectedly record low-level audio. It boosts your recording amplitude to the highest limit without compromising on sound quality.

Transferring files to or from your computer is fast and convenient. Just plug the UX570 straight into a free USB port for an immediate connection with no USB cable needed.

With its 4GB of built-in storage, the UX570 can record in stereo for up to 59 hours in MP3 file type at 128 kb/s. Plus, you can boost your storage with compatible memory cards. A microSDHC card will give you up to 32GB of storage, or a microSDXC card will give you an impressive 64GB or more.

At just 4.05 × 1.45 × 0.49" and approximately 1.7 oz, the sleek UX570 is both light and thin, meaning it can slip into your pocket and go wherever you go.

The built-in lithium battery enables up to 22 hours of MP3 recording time and recharges via USB. A three-minute quick charge grants one hour of recording time.
