We had to whip out the Sherlock Holmes type magnifying glass to find the diminuative PXR4 Pocket Studio from Korg. The unit (launched at the BMF) can playback up to four tracks and record up to two. Recording to Smart Media, the PXR4 has three recoring modes: Standard, High-Quality and Economy but the really nifty thing is that it has a USB connection so you can import your recording directly into your PC and continue to work within your favourite sequencer.
