The problem here is that anything smart enough to be able to record to SD card will need a menu system to manage the machine. A possible option albeit quite expense is the Olympus DM-5 which is more a posh Dictaphone than a field recorder like the Zoom H1. There used to be a very simple non-SD card using Olympus recorder that had no menus whatever, I don't recall its model number. Regards.

I myself am totally blind and find the control surface accessible since every button does perform a particular function. The only thing that will need assistance is the date and time setup. The recorder has an omni-directional pare of mics that are 45 degrees to each other thereby giving you a 90 degree stereo separation. The recording formats are MP3 and WAV. I can't remember the exact sample rates but it does go up to 96 Khz 24 bit. I hope that somebody else is able to give you more info on this. Regards.
