Estuve probando la grabadora y hasta el momento no he tenido ningun problema. Es ena excelente opción para uso profesional en la producción audiovisual. NOTA: Si vas a comprar esta grabadora ten en cuenta que consume muy rápido las baterías AA. Siempre deberás tener por lo menos 2 kits de 4 baterías.

Uno de los grandes pros, es que puedes alimentar esta grabadora con baterías USB. Un tabique ADATA de 20,000mAh te da poder por más de 72 horas de grabación con 2 phantom, desde hace unos 2 años que llevo con esta grabadora nunca se me ha descargado una batería, y aunque así fuera, siempre cargo con al menos 2 de repuesto, ya que son sumamente económicas (salen en menos de $500) y tienen si compras ADATA o alguna marca de renombre, te salen sumamente confiables.El gran problema de las grabadoras de campo de Tascam son sus menús poco intuitivos y nada amigables al usuario sin experiencia.Recomiendo ampliamente que antes de llevarla a trabajos en set, donde cualquier error puede costar que no te contraten de nuevo, debes practicar y sobre todo conocer perfectamente los menús, para que por memoria muscular sepas como solucionar cualquier inconveniente que pueda surgir.

I have been using the Tascam DR-701 for around 6 months, and I cannot complain about it. You have too many options to work with it. I mention those I have used so far.Battery options: You can use batteries, power bank or directly to the USB socket, this power options give you the possibilities to use it in the studio, indoor and outdoor without power limitations.There are 4 XLR connectors where you can use Phantom power if it is necessary. I have the Rode Podmic, and it has been working well, this mic doesn't need phantom power. You can control the gain of each channel, and record individually as well as an integrated microphone.You can see in the screen the gain levels as the red light indicating when there is an audio peak. In the case you don't need all the XLR connectors you can use a Dual 1-2 or 3-4 for a safe audio record, you can set up this from -1 to -12dB.Thanks to the Phones output jack you can monitor and also playback the audio to check if everything is going well.One of the reasons I chose this model, in particular, is because it has HDMI in and out. When you use the HDMI, you don't have to worry about sync the Audi and Video, or if you forget to press record or stop, as this is automatically connected and sync with the camera. Also, with the audio Jack in and out you can record in the Tascam and the camera.And the last you can use the Tascam on a tripod and in the top of it you have a hot shoe for a mic or the option to fix your camera on it.

J'ai acheté cet article pour mes vidéos, notamment sur la chaîne YouTube 20CentHardware.Le but est d'une part de pouvoir enregistrer un audio amplifié et pouvoir mélanger plusieurs lignes. Mission accomplie ! L'audio sortant de mon Rode NTG4+ est formidable, idem pour mes micro cravate. J'utilise une caméra émettant un timecode via HDMI et ça fonctionne à merveille ! Les pistes sont synchronisées et les enregistrements de longueur identique. Pas de besoin de clap de synchro (sauf si on est parano). Enregistrement en WAV 24bit 48kHz de super qualité.Je craignais d'être bloqué par les 19 pages de réglages (lu sur un review en ligne) mais elles sont au final toutes utiles, intuitives quand on touche un peu à du matériel / signal audio, et je suis bien content qu'elles soient là.Mes réserves :Impossible de connecter un smartlav+ avec adaptateur sur les input classiques, car ils ne peuvent pas les alimenter. Il faut passer par l'input micro.L'autonomie : La consommation est impressionnante et les 4 piles seront vides en 20-40mn max. Il est heureusement possible de l'alimenter via USB, c'est ce qui le sauve.

I purchased this to capture individual tracks from the mixer when my guitar/vocal duo performs. 4 tracks is perfect. I own a DR-05 that I've used to capture audio of practices and performances and it has worked VERY well for me for the 5 years that I've owned it. With the success of the DR-05, I figured I'd stick with Tascam for a multitrack digital recorder.The form factor is great. It's sturdily build with a metal chassis. The buttons feel solid. The level controls for each channel are a little tight, but not a big deal. It is easily set up and pretty intuitive. I was able to remove the mount on top since I won't be using this with a DSLR. They even give you little rubber plugs to plug the holes if you choose to do this. Sound quality of the recordings is fantastic. I am recording 4 individual mono tracks at 16bit/44.1kHz.Beware that it is very picky about memory cards. I had purchased a 128GB PNY card to use with it. It is the same card that has worked wonderfully for me in my Canon HD camcorder. With this card, the DR-70D would record for an hour or so and stop with a "file write error". This happened numerous times and with multiple cards. I decided to try a SanDisk card from Tascam's recommended list. This works perfectly fine.

I come at audio for video with a pretty strong audio background. Tascam has a reliable reputation in the audio industry so when I needed an audio recorder I favored the DR100 mk2 over other brands like say Zoom that have tended to be sort of cheapo equipment in that other industry. The 100mk2 had several major flaws:1. It's form factor and construction - though great for a handheld audio recorder, it was super awkward to mount with camera hardware, wireless mic receivers, etc... on top of this it had sort of cheap feeling construction2. It's gain attenuator switch applied to both recording channels instead of having individual controls which created all sorts of havoc working with microphones with radically different gain expectations3. The inability to partial use of onboard mics along with external was annoying too.The reason I list these issues is because the DR-70D handles all of these problems and more. It's form factor could not be more perfect for working with other video gear. Even if you don't use the feature of screwing it into your camera's tripod attachment (which is genius btw), you can use that feature bolt the d70 into a camera strap or use the screen guards as a convenient attachment for other shoulder straps. Plus it's built tough! The 70D has very discreet controls for each recording channel. You can freely assign inputs and input gain. On top of all that, they've added combo connectors so quarter inch feeds off of a sound board don't need to be converted to xlr, there are 2 more connectors and corresponding tracks, and there are a bunch of other bells and whistles like safety track recording and stereo mapping. The onboard controls are very intuitive too. Finally, the fact that the device outputs 4 discreet audio files when you transfer files to your editor is a nice touch. The simplicity of being able to just drag and drop the files into an editor without splitting them or having to worry about pan settings and whatnot was a great piece of forethought on the engineers part. All this and it's a really inexpensive device! All this is to say that I am very impressed and Tascam is fully redeemed in my eyes.

This thing rocks my world. I record a podcast on it. Each speaker gets a track, so people with bad mic technique are easy to fix in post without messing up everyone else's sound. I don't have to carry a laptop with me to make it work. I haven't really used the built-in mics, but they seem as good as anything else you find on recording devices.On a per-track basis, you can control gain with the knobs, a separate customizable gain boost in the menu, panning, phantom power, recording on or off (no wasting disk space and battery to record silence from empty mic ports like on the Zoom H4N), and probably more that I'm forgetting.Battery life is okay, mostly I use it plugged in. One weird quirk: powering it with third party cables may not work properly, but the one that comes in the box works fine. Switches to battery power if it comes unplugged (but don't let it jiggle in and out or it can shut off). Mic ports are super secure, in fact so secure that I worry I might damage the device if I'm not careful in unplugging mics.Build quality feels about medium-durable. I've read that the tripod/camera mounts aren't well built and can damage the device if used roughly, so I don't use them and I treat the whole thing with kid gloves. The little circle thing on the top rattles, which is bad, but I cut off a thin slice of foam from the packaging and stuck it under and now it's still and silent. The knobs are a little hard to control individually, but if you have small to medium hands you'll be fine (mine are dainty and womanish). The battery compartment is fiddly but okay. Date and time resets when you change the batteries, but all other settings are stable.Formatting time on a 32 gig card is faster than my H4N on an 8 gig card. Sound quality is excellent. Having a headphone port and a separate line out is really nice. The device confirms phantom power usage whenever it's switched on, which is great (easy to forget you turned it on for a track).For the price, there is no competition. Fancy mixer interfaces still need a separate computer to work. Nobody has it cheaper than Amazon, at least not right now. Treat it gently and accept the occasional little bump in the road, and you'll love it like you've never loved a gadget before.
