All I can say is this is worth every penny! It quickly became my favorite 32bit float field recorder. Again worth every penny. Bravo Tascam!

Wow wow WOW!! I upgraded from my TASCAM DR-60Dmk2 and what a huge difference. Such a smaller form factor, 32-bit float, USB-C connectivity, and the capability of Bluetooth monitoring over wireless headphones and using the TASCAM app, this recorder is a knockout! Pairing it with 3 Eneloop Pro AAs (2500mAh), I was able to record 32-bit 48kHz audio for 7 hours and 2 minutes with 24V of Phantom power on both XLRs with Audio Technica boundary mics which is astonishing!!! I used to have to use an external battery pack to power my DR-60Dmk2 because the 4 Duracell AAs wouldn’t last a 1.5 hour show. With regular Eneloops (1900mAh) from 2013 (2nd gen), I still get 5 hours and 2 minutes which is very impressive for 12 year old batteries that I rarely used!

Ich finde den Tascam FR-AV2 sehr gut aufgebaut.Sehr gut klingende Preamps; Die interne M/S Matrix funktioniert auch sehr gut.Interner Timecode ist bei so einem kleinen Gerät eine Besonderheit.(Ich mache professionelle Feldaufnahmen mit Schoeps und Sennheiser Mikrofonen)All das ist besser als bei dem Zoom F3 , den ich bisher hauptsächlich als portablenRecorder benutzt habe.Die Menüs des Tascam FR-AV2 sind etwas umständlicher, als beim Zoom F3.Ich finde es etwas schade , dass man nicht in seine DAW (Cubase, Samplitude etc.)per "USB" die beiden aktivierten 48V Mic-Preamps des Tascam FR-AV2 aufnehmen kann (in 32 Bit float.) - und gleichzeitig die anderen Spuren der DAW abhören kann. (mit allen VST Effekten etc.).Dies ist mit dem Zoom F3 ohne Probleme möglich (auch mit sehr geringer Latenz) und man kann diese Funktion per "Live-Monitoring" an und ausschalten.Somit ist der Tascam nur ein Recorder aber kein vollwertiges kleines USB-Interface. Wenn ich auf "USB" Modus umschalte , um die DAW abzuhören , sind alle möglichen Funktionen deaktiviert, wie "48V" etc. - es wäre sehr nützlich , wenn es eine Funktion wie "USB + *48V Preamps activ*" gäbe.So werde ich weiterhin viel mit dem Zoom F3 (als portablen Recorder+USB Interface) arbeiten und den Tascam FR-AV2 (eher reiner portabler Recorder) vor Allem wegen der präzisen Timcode-Funktionen als reinen Audio-Recorder für Direkte Stereo-Spur Aufnahmen für Videoaufnahmen benutzen können. (Wofür er perfekt ist).Ich denke, es wäre kein Problem diese Funktionen per Firmware-Update freizuschalten/hinzuzufügen - und dann wäre dieser Recorder auch zusätzlich als USB-Interface wirklich gut geeignet - wofür ja auch Werbung gemacht wurde.Deswegen 1-Stern Abzug von mir.

I have had a problem with the AV2 and my Panasonic cameras.Using the audio Timecode input to the camera from the 3.5mm TC out of the AV2 ( set on "mic" option ) overloads the Panasonic pre-amps, even set to their lowest gain of -12 dB.it is 50mV p-p ( 17.6 mV rms ) and this is too high for the preamps in Panasonic mirrorless cameras.I don't know if this is just a faulty unit or a firmware issue, but if you want Timecode audio input to a camera you should check if you have this issue also.I have returned this unit and the Bluetooth adapter for this reason.Update :I have been in contact with Tascam about this issue and they suggest using an attenuation cable as they cannot reduce the TC output with a firmware update. I consider this unsatisfactory as this is an additional cost and shouldn't be necessary.

High quality, very functional, basic functionality is very user friendly. Item is great value for money. True sound clarity is recieved on post production. I'm using direct interface with A DAW station instead of SD card. Pair with a sennheiser 600 for quality audio and sound. Will need to tweak setting to suit your ideal output.

In the world of audio recording, the TascamTASCAM FR-AV2 32-bit Field Recorder/Timecode Generator reigns supreme as the ultimate multi-tool. It's packed with features, yet remains surprisingly easy to use. The display is a joy to behold, and the battery life seems to defy the laws of physics. Sure, it's a premium product with a premium price tag, but that's the world we live in. If you're serious about recording, this is the tool for you."PS --- in video this is my dj bedroom studio I'm just ad tascam recorder recently

Deze recorder is een topper voor een videograaf. klein, weegt weinig en heeft veel bruikbare mogelijkheden. Heeft ook veel mogelijkheden naast het filmen.

I use it both as a recorder and an audio interface. I have it set up in OBS with the ASIO plugin, the Tascam ASIO driver works perfect, 32-bit float into OBS with separate inputs for 1 and 2. Absolutely zero issues. Just make sure you turn the recorder on and off after you install the driver and it will switch to ASIO.
