Compact and lightweight, the Tascam DR-70D Professional Recorder for DSLR is a four channel audio recorder designed for use with DSLR cameras. Its versatility allows you to mount the DR-70D above or below the camera to suit your needs. If you’re a filmmaker or television producer looking to improve the sound quality of your footage, this is a must-have piece of recording equipment.
The DR-70D comes with two in-built microphones that have an omni-directional polar pattern, providing a natural sound from a 360-degree angle. This eliminates the risk of proximity effect ruining recordings when capturing a source up-close. You can also use your own microphones on channels 1 and 2, with high levels of gain that allow the use of ribbons and low-output microphones without worrying about hiss.
Recording on location can be difficult, but the DR-70D makes it easier with its in-built limiter. This engages automatically to prevent clipping and distortion when sudden dynamic bursts occur. The adjustable five-setting low-cut filter helps to reduce low-frequency rumble, keeping the viewers’ focus on the footage.
The DR-70D has many features, including the ability to use an SD/SDHC/SDXC card as a recording medium with up to 128 GB of storage. It uses Tascam’s original High Definition Discrete Architecture microphone preamps for high-quality recording inputs. Simultaneous recording of up to four channels is possible, and the levels can be adjusted independently. The DR-70D also has a dual recording function, allowing two files to be recorded simultaneously at different levels.
There are additional features like selectable mid-side decoding, slate tone functions for synchronization of video files, pre-recording and auto recording functions, and more. The DR-70D can be powered by four AA batteries, an AC adapter, an external battery pack, or USB bus power.
In terms of specifications, the DR-70D has two built-in microphones, four recording tracks, and four XLR microphone inputs. It supports audio formats like WAV/PCM and has a bit rate of 24-bit. Phantom power is available, and it has line in stereo inputs and headphone and line out outputs. The recorder has a weight of 900 grams and dimensions of 28.0 x 21.0 x 11.0 cm. The product code is DR-70D.
