Source: roland.com (read 2026-07-11) STALE · 2026-07-11 · corroborated by the-gadgeteer.com (read 2026-07-11). Roland's official R-07 specifications page confirmed the exact model (R-07 High-Resolution Audio Recorder) and supplied every technical spec verbatim: Tracks 2 (stereo)/4 (stereo x2 in WAV x 2 mode), 24-bit AD/DA at 44.1/48/88.2/96 kHz WAV, microSD/SDHC card, internal stereo microphone plus a 3.5mm MIC/AUX IN (no XLR, no 48V phantom), a 128 x 64 white-backlit graphic LCD, two AA batteries as the primary supply, and approximately 15 hours of continuous recording on alkalines. The Gadgeteer's dated (Jan 19, 2019) hands-on review corroborated the identical spec table for the same R-07-BK model and stated the price verbatim as "Price : $229.99" with "Where to buy : Amazon". Weight is disclosed on both pages only as 150 g including batteries, so the without-batteries body weight required by the methodology is left null rather than inferred.
