The recorder has a front pouch for two small wireless receivers or transmitters, a small mixer/mix-pre, or a small hand held microphone. (If more room is required, the optional RM-Multi pouch or larger RM-DELUXE case may be added over the sewn in pouch.) A clear vinyl window covers controls or roll it up when not needed. The front panel zips open to about 30 degrees to access controls and prevents the pocket contents from spilling. A battery access panel makes emergency battery changes go smoothly. Left & right cable areas can be sealed against dust, rain, snow or can be rolled back and left open. The suede leather shoulder strap is included or you can order the optional (AH- series) of Audio Harness/Belt combination.
