General

Boasting a 96kHz/32-bit recording resolution, the Tascam Portacapture X6 portable recorder couldn't miss a detail if it tried. This flexible audio tool comes furnished with a large touchscreen for access to an array of apps to match a range of different setups. Use it during interviews, for podcasting, to capture musical instruments, to catalogue found sounds for sound design, and even record ASMR content. If preferred, the pocket-sized X6 also features fully manual operation, so you can bypass the apps and set everything up so it meets your specific standards.

The Tascam Portacapture X6: Connections

The pair of integrated microphone capsules already capture impressive stereo recordings and have been mounted in a fixed X-Y configuration with 100% mono compatibility. Twist the capsules away from one another and immerse your listener in a super-wide and life-packed audio image. For more custom results, two combo XLR/jack ports have also been fitted to support external microphones, so you can hook up anything from a boom mic to a clip-on microphone, while a stereo mini-jack input has also been provided to support other external sources like a camera microphone or even wireless clip-on microphone systems.

Ik ben gewend aan het gebruik van een Edirol (van Roland) en daarmee vergeleken moet ik heel erg wennen aan het op de juiste manier instellen van dit apparaat. Maar eenmaal ingesteld werkt het prima!
