Tascam DR-40X - voice recorder

The DR-40X is a versatile four-track audio recorder for music, podcasting, cinema and any other application requiring high-quality audio. A pair of cardioid condenser microphones handles high sound pressure levels and can be set up in AB or XY orientation for a wide stereo field or extra-clear reproduction with reduced phase displacement between both channels. Using the stereo built-in microphones, you can capture ambient sound of the audience while recording directly from an external console, which is ideal for live performances. Operations like recording, adjusting levels, deleting bad takes and adding marks are just a button press away. Three different auto level modes can help to prevent accidental distortion while recording. The dictation mode enables you to jump back and forth in preselected increments while playing back a file. It can be combined with speed control and a special dictation EQ making it useful for transcribing minutes recordings, for example. The tape-style overwrite mode with one level of undo lets you select a drop-in time and replace part of an existing recording.
