20 Most Recent Korg Mr1 Digital Mobile Recorder Questions & Answers

I have the very same problem and when I initialize it, I get the Message "Partition Drive Error Occurred"

While this is Mac-related, the information regarding the reset button is helpful and seemingly little-known. This comes from a Korg rep, by the way:
Did you first manually eject the drive from the Mac before disconnecting it by either moving the drive into the trash or using the Eject option from the Finder menu? If you try to exit USB mode without ejecting the drive on the computer first and then disconnecting the cable, this can cause the unit to lock up. Additionally, you’ll notice there is a tiny hole below the volume controls on the side of the unit. You can use a paperclip to push in a button within this hole to manually reset the recorder however this is only recommended in extreme circumstances. Look forward to hearing from you.

If the unit has a "FORMAT" function, do that! (not your computer but the MR1.
