Bought this for my daughter few weeks back and she absolutely recorded a lot of things on the first week. The stereo sound is very good for a consumer product.compared to the size cassettes it's almost as small as one (in this photo the angle of the cassette is not properly placed), it's easy to pack up and carry around. connecting with USB and transfer files had no problems from her experience and neither did recording, though she did not learn about adjusting the input level until the third day she had it.

This is exactly the portable recorder that I was looking for. I use it to record live music and rehearsal sessions.The good things:- It's the right size.- It has a good range of easy to use features. Easy to navigate menus.- I can operate it with one hand using a thumb.- The recording and sound quality are quite good for my use.- It's a Tascam product - I have had good experience with Tascam and don't need to save a couple of bucks by buying a knock off or copycat.- It records WAV and a variety of MP3 densities. No proprietary format that must be converted!- It stores files on a removable Micro USB card, not on board. Files can be easily transferred by USB cable or simply transferring the card to a computer.- It uses two AA batteries (included) which means I am not tethered to a charger. This is perfect for longer recording periods as I can swap out new batteries on the fly so to speak. I was able to record / playback for over 40 hours on the supplied set of batteries.- It has a mounting screw port and can be attached to a mic stand or desk mounted stand.- It is cheap enough that if I lose it or break it I won't freak out.Could be better:- A bluetooth I/O link would be nice (it is available on more expensive recorders)- You'll need to use a stereo capable 1/8" jack patch cord if you want to use an external speaker or patch into another device.- Being a small device with a small screen, setting recording levels can be a bit tedious.- Settings are lost when the recorder is turned off.Notable mentions:- I ended up purchasing and returning a Refurbished recorder. Typically I have had good success with refurbished items but this item was "locking up" as I browsed recordings and switched menus quickly.- I have had one instance of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) while recording. It comes across as a clicking sound. I wasn't able to isolate what was causing the interference but it was not a guitar or bass amp. The RFI was transient and only occurred once in 78 recordings on the unit that I returned.- Amazon handled the return as they always do. Efficient and easy.- The lack of a micro-USB card with the recorder is not a big deal. Many people including myself have several micro-usb cards from other retired devices I could use. Memory cards are quite inexpensive these days and you can just order one when you purchase the recorder. Get a 128Gig card because if you are like me you will use it.Although the packaging that it comes in will provide great protection when it's not in use, I am purchasing a case that can fit spare batteries, a short USB cable, and the 1/8" stereo output cable in one place.

Leider sind die ein und Ausgänge für Live Video, Audio Aufnahmen ungeeignet. Tausche es gegen das DR 60 von Tascam. Damit sollten meine Probleme behoben sein

No puedo decir que no me haya gustado algo es perfecto para lo que lo quiero para publicar podcast sobre todo si trabajas al aire libre

A qualidade de som é excelente em comparação a de câmeras ou celulares ou microfones 'de escritório'. Imagino que as versões mais avançadas do equipamento como DR07 ou DR40 sejam ainda melhores, mas este certamente já atende para a gravação amadora.A qualidade de som quando utilizado isolado é excelente, porém ela piora consideravelmente ao ser utilizado via USB diretamente, imagino que por a alimentação USB ser grande fonte de ruído, então a pesar de o equipamento oferecer esta funcionalidade, não é o modo de operação mais recomendado.

Bought this to sample everyday objects into my music and record instruments on the go. Since this comes with a pair of small-diaphragm condenser microphones, it's very receptive to soft sounds. The signal-to-noise ratio is great as well. When plugged in with USB, it utilizes bus power, that's a big plus when using this as an audio interface. This costs almost 40% more when bought in India but well, it is what it is...Would definitely recommend it!

... wenn man ein Externes Mirco verwenden möchte sollte man sich ein anderes Gerät Kaufe, habe zwei Geräte bekommen und bei beiden ist die Qualität der Aufnahme mit den Externen Mircos völlig unbrauchbar da es nur "Knackt und Rauscht".Besser man legt noch 20 Euro drauf und hat ein Aufnahmegerät das auch funktioniert und nicht so ein Schrott!!!!
