Hey Dude,
I am glad to see that you you are up and running. If you have updated to firmware 1.20 then you will be able to use higher than 2GB cards but the cards need to be SDHC cards- from Edirols website 'Responding to demands in the marketplace, the Edirol has recently updated the R-09 to support the new SDHC standard for SD memory cards. Previously, the R-09 was limited to a maximum SD card capacity of 2 gigabytes using standard SD memory cards. As of November 17, 2006 the R-09 is now fully compatible with SDHC memory cards that offer sizes over the 2 GB limit and increased data transfer speeds.'
As to the red led- again if you have updated to 1.20 then under Display settings you scroll down to the Rec/Peak LED menu choice and apparently if you switch this to power save it inks the [REC Indicator] and [PEAK Indicator] to the Display Timer settings. When it goes dark, the [REC Indicator] and [PEAK Indicator] are also turned off.
As to sample rates basically the higher bit rate the better quality (ie more information gets transfered)- very similar to DAB radio. Some people swear by very high bit rates for their MP3- it really depends what you want to do. I personally notice a drop in quality if I compare a full wav file with an MP3 but you proabably wouldn't notice the difference if you didn't set out to do the comparison- I hope that helps.
