The Tascam DR-60DmkII 4-Channel Portable Recorder for DSLR is the new audio recording solution for on-set filmmakers and videographers the usage of DSLRs. For years, filmmakers have been trying different methods for recording audio – including using bulky recorders designed for music and trying to change into the inferior audio technology built-into DSLRs. Now TASCAM has designed an answer that pros and amateurs alike have been waiting for. The DR-60D is a brand spanking new 4-track solid-state recorder utilizing TASCAMs decades of experience. The recorder utilizes high-grade HDDA pre-amps, legendary AD converters, and a durable but lightweight structure and shape. This device will fit snuggly under any camera or into any rig, and record up to 96kHz/24-bit top of the range audio straight to SD/SDHC media. Filmmakers have at their disposal two 1/4″-XLR Locking Combo MIC/LINE Inputs, 3.5mm Stereo MIC Input, Camera In, Camera Out, Line Out and Headphone Out. Both 1/4″-XLR Combo Inputs supply +48V Phantom Power and the 3.5mm Input supplies Plug-In Power for microphones requiring a bias voltage. The DR-60D is incredibly easy to use, employing TASCAMs very popular user interface and external controls for every major operation. The body structure, soft-touch keys and dials are designed specifically to help get rid of handling noise. The a couple of record modes include, 4-Channel Record, Auto Record and TASCAMs Dual Record “Safety Track” Mode make the DR-60D one of the vital versatile recorders available on the market.
