Compact and flexible

The Xvive XV1-R Portable Stereo Recorder represents an affordable way of ensuring high-quality recordings thanks to its dual microphones, which are arranged at 90° to each other to enable X/Y stereo recording. The Xvive's 32-bit float recording technology means the signal being recorded requires no levelling; of course, it can still be adjusted and edited using the device's onboard functions, which include a low-cut filter, a limiter, a compressor, and a noise gate. An LC display provides a clear indication of all parameters, making it easy for the user to monitor their progress while recording. The XV1-R also has a selection of presets, so that a variety of sounds can be captured perfectly, and eliminating the need for editing recordings with an equaliser.

Versatile and intuitive

All the Xvive XV1-R's functions can be controlled quickly and easily via the recorder's intuitively designed user interface. The display shows the volume level of both microphones, the status of the micro-SD card, the battery charge level, and the file name. During a recording, markers can be created to quickly find specific passages during playback, while the overdub function makes it possible to layer additional tracks over an existing recording. In addition to the headphone jack, recordings can also be played back immediately using the built-in speaker – everyone involved can thus give their feedback on the take. Power comes either from two standard AA alkaline batteries, a 1.5V lithium or NiMH rechargeable battery pack, or via the USB-C socket: On battery power, the XV1-R can be used for up to 12 hours.

Simple and spontaneous

The Xvive XV1-R Portable Stereo Recorder can be used for a variety of applications, from concerts and rehearsals to work meetings and songwriting sessions. Thanks to its intuitive operation, no prior knowledge is required to make excellent recordings, and journalists and sound designers in particular will love the fact that the signal as recorded doesn't need levelling, making recording both fast and flexible. Another user-friendly feature is the pre-record function, which captures sound 2.5 seconds before the actual recording begins – no more missing the start of a spontaneous interview or found sound. What is more, the onboard presets can be used to optimise the sound before recording.

About Xvive Audio

Xvive Audio officially entered the market in 2012 with its compact U2 wireless guitar system. Since then, the company has also been involved in the development of wireless microphone technology. Its catalogue also includes effects pedals, such as the Signature Series, which were developed in partnership with guitarist Thomas Blug. The products are designed by an American team, based in Pasadena, California, which is composed of musicians and engineers and draws on decades of professional experience. Its lead designer, Howard Davies, was previously employed at Electro Harmonix and Pigtronix, among others. Xvive Audio's goal is to create products that deliver exceptional sound and build quality, while remaining affordable for any musician.

Compatible and functional

The Xvive XV1-R will record .WAV files by default, but it can also be used to make AAC recordings in both the AAC-LC and HE-AAC formats, with the latter particularly suitable for recording film audio, as comparatively good playback results are achieved at low bit rates. Opting for the .WAV format makes it possible to save files with a size of up to 4GB, with a quality of up to 96kHz. There is a 1/4" thread on the underside of the recorder, which can be used to attach it to a tripod or a camera with a suitable hot shoe mount. The Slate Tone generator is another neat little feature for filmmakers, with an audible signal ensuring the recording can be easily synchronised with other sources, and a signal from an external source can also be recorded via the 3.5mm jack input.

Wer sich für eine teurere Alternative entscheidet, ist selbst schuld.

Das Menu ist ein wenig gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber wenn man es verstanden hat, sieht man sogar das Ausgeklügelte an der Menuführung.

Sound top, sogar als Audiointerface.

Ich hab mir den nur wegen 32 Bit geholt, damit ich mehr Freiheit beim Filmen habe und mich nicht auf jede Pegelspitze auf den Gainregler stürzten muss.

Zubehör habe ich mir selbst gebastelt oder schaut Euch bei Thomann Alternativen an. Ich probiere gerade mal rum, was so alles passt.
Auch der Mic Input klingt sehr gut und hat nahezu kaum Störgeräusche auch bei langen Kabelwegen, die unsymmetrisch sind.




Xvive hat mir auh geschrieben, dass die an Zubehöhr dran sind. Sicherlich ist das der erste Feldrecorder von denen und die haben den erst mal als Test rausgebraucht. Ich denke auch, dass in Zujunft mehr von denen kommt.

Un sorprendente nuevo venido venido de China
Raphaël P. etnomusicólogo 29.03.2025
Yo soy etnomusicólogo, y en mis investigaciones necesito grabar frecuentemente, sean interpretaciones musicales o entrevistas. Suelo utilizar grabadores profesionales, aunque los míos son actualmente discontinuados: un Sound Devices 702 (una maravilla de sonido y de solidez) y un Tascam HD-P2. También suelo completar mi material con grabadores de mano pequeños, muy cómodos en caso de que se presente un evento no previsto.
Había comprado con este fin un Zoom H1Essential, pero no me satisface porque no permite grabar en 24-bit sino solamente en 32-bits como flotante. Por otro lado su pantalla es demasiado pequeña, y el grabador capta demasiado ruidos de manos yor fin sus micrófonos no me parecen de gran calidad. Acabo de comprar un XVive XV1-R. Después de comprobarlo en varias situaciones, me quedo bastante y agradablemente sorprendido. No presenta los defectos del Zoom. puedo grabar en distintos formatos, 32-bits coma flotante, 24-bits, etc. Los micrófonos, aunque raros de apariencia, son de calidad más que correcta (poco ruido) y restituyen una imagen estereofónica excelente. Lo voy a utilizar estando seguro tener grabaciones de calidad profesional. Recordamos que la marca XVive fabrica excelentes sistemas inalámbricos (ver Thomann vende buena parte de ellos ().
Si hay un reproche, es que XVive no ha previsto un sistema antiviento para su grabador.
Globalmente, es un buen grabador, lo tengo siempre en el bolsillo, la autonomía de las pilas es buena, Pues tengo una buena herramienta complementaria y recomiendo el XVive XV1-R Portable Stereo Recorder.

Bedienung nur Englisch, geht trotzdem in Ordnung.
Die Batterie Anzeige hilft bei Akkus nicht wirklich.
Schon nach sehr kurzer Zeit wird "leer" angezeigt, nimmt aber noch stundenlang auf. Ich kann also nicht erkennen ob die Akkus wirklich leer sind, oder noch fast voll.
