DR-07
Portable Digital Recorder
This model has been discontinued.
It has been replaced with the DR-07X.
TASCAM's DR-07 brings portable digital recording to an even smaller, more affordable package. A pair of highly-sensitive built in mics captures a wide stereo image, recording in either MP3 or 16/24-bit WAV format. The DR-07 is powered by AA batteries and it transfers files to a computer using a high-speed USB 2.0 connection. The versatile recorder even includes a windscreen, tripod stand mount and 2GB SD card to start recording right away.
Musicians will appreciate the playback functions of the DR-07, including the ability to loop MP3s and slow them down without changing the pitch. External microphones and sources can be recorded through the mic/line input, and the recorder offers analog limiting, low cut and auto gain setting for great-sounding audio. For great-sounding recordings, the compact DR-07 is all you need.
Now available for the DR-07, the new WS-DR2 windscreen is perfect for outdoor recording with the built-in microphones. It improves on the included windscreen by using artificial fur to block out even the strongest wind gusts.
Also check out the compact DR-08, which features 96kHz recording and adjustable microphones.
