@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨ it's battery powered  (two aa batteries) ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ and has a  microphone. it does feature a ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨ speed hole but  it's hidden beneath  its ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨                  shell.                  ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨

@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ a  cool  thing  is  the speaker  on  the ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨

@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ well. it has  some very real compression ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨ going  on  so close vox and  other  high ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ volume things  are very  crisp and  with ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨ kind  of  low  noise.  but  when there's ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ more of  an ambience,  all  you hear  is ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨          hiss and motor noise.           ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨

@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨ denoising techniques are simple. actual  ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ denoising for  the  noise,  and maybe an ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨            eq for the motor.             ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨

@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨ it  does  this   very  good.  the  pause ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@@¨¨@¨@¨ button is a small stop, the stop  button ¨@¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨¨@¨@@¨@¨             is a major stop.             ¨@¨@¨@¨¨@¨
