Description
The TASCAM DR-70D is a versatile companion for filmmakers and audio engineers seeking high-quality, portable sound capture. Seamlessly integrating with DSLR cameras, this compact recorder is perfect for capturing audio on set or in the field. The DR-70D is equipped with four XLR/TRS combo inputs, each with phantom power and individual gain controls, allowing for a diverse range of setups from professional productions to indie projects. The TASCAM HDDA mic preamps deliver clear audio with a gain of up to 64dB, ensuring even the most subtle sounds are captured with precision.
Designed for ease of use, the DR-70D features a user-friendly interface for quick adjustments. Its Dual Recording mode is a lifesaver, providing a safety track at a lower level to prevent distorted takes.

The built-in omnidirectional microphones allow for immediate recording of natural stereo sound without external mics, and the unit's rugged design can be mounted above or below a camera, making it an indispensable tool for any filmmaker.
