Tascam DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder

The TASCAM DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder brings high-quality stereo recording to an easy-to-use portable powerhouse with a size and price that anyone can handle.

The Tascam DR-05 records in MP3 or WAV format including 96kHz/24-bit high-resolution audio to microSD or microSDHC media. A pair of all-new microphones handles up to 125dB SPL with the sensitivity to capture every detail. With recording features like Peak Reduction and Quick Menu, the DR-05 puts album-quality recording in the palm of your hand.

The DR-05s digital and analog circuit boards are built separately to increase noise performance, with a low-impedance design to further decrease hiss. A separate power supply is sent to the A/D and D/A converter for even better audio performance. The result is clean sound quality over 92dB signal to noise ratio, under 0.05% total harmonic distortion and 20Hz to 40kHz response (-1/+3dB) at 96kHz/24-bit resolution.

The Peak Reduction feature automatically sets your recording level by listening to the input and adjusting for the best level. Unlike Auto Gain settings, this one only goes down to prevent accidental distortion after a period of low level like a break.

Peak Recording works in rehearsal mode or in record, so if the performance is louder than the soundcheck youre still safe. Used with the built-in limiter, its unlikely youll distort your career-making live recording.

Other classic TASCAM features are included, like Variable Speed Audition to loop and slow down music without changing the pitch perfect for transcribing or learning new music. A Level Align function can be switched on for playback, to smooth out any sudden volume jumps, and a built-in speaker is also provided.

The two AA batteries are enough to power the recorder for 17 1/2 hours, even while recording at CD quality.
