You really want to like it but it has its flows..
A&L 26.06.2020
I intended to use it with condenser mics and media player on the inputs, and outputting into a a Sony A7Riii to broadcast live.

The Taskam, has many physical controls, you spend less time Chimping into the menus. I like this a lot. It has plenty of feature (pan control, limiter, low pass , perfect for live)
It has plenty of inputs and outputs. (3 outs, 2 mono in one stereo line 1)
I like it a lot BUT if you are planing to use it as live loop back to your camera (as it is meant to be) with a Sony camera (A7/III) you are in for a disappointment. Forget about it its a disaster.

There is a serious issue with grounding and impedance.

When connected to the sony when using mics(on the tascam) makes the noise floor will raise from the -90dB internal to --64.29 dB on the sony recording

When you connect a line source ( like a music player)
Hell break lose: there is a gigantic ground and noise and noise floor jump at -35dB.

Connected to the input of an audio interface , every thing is fine.

So I would recommend this unit but if you are not using it with a sony dslr / line in. (could not test with other brand).

its a shame.. I can't use it

It's all you need as a semi-pro videomaker
Elfix50 15.05.2020
I use it as a backup external audiorecorder as a videomaker. It's perfect for semi-pro / beginner cinema or videomaker.

It's a great product in that range of price. If you can afford to invest 400+ euros, then buy something better for that price. If you have no more than 200€ buy this one eyes closed.

Pros :
- What you get for the price
- Dual monio recording with "backup track" in case of peak
- Versatility
- Can be used with batteries or plugged in, even with a powerbank!

Cons
-Handle with care. It's lots of cheap plastic, it doesn't feel very well factured, but it's still solid.
- Of course for that price, preamps are just good, not great
- You need a stand tyo use it, not very handy to une without stand (although you can still put some hooks and a belt).
- 48v phantom takes a lot of power from the 8 AA batteries

Good deal. Fill the needs
Haeg 05.01.2018
This little field recorder wend very well with my shotguns. I use different models with it and i would recommand to use one with a good strong signal (not to use to much gain on the device).

I switched to a zoom f4 now but i still use my old tascam friend sometimes as a second device in case i have problems with the Zoom.

Among recorders, this one is not that bad. Compared to the classic h4n, it's clearly better (in my opinion).

One thing to know, The gain knobs are going by "steps", you can hear clearly the breaking point when it goes louder. It's not a good old analog system.

Also, you can't use it as a sound interface with your computer (you can do that with a bit of latency with h4n for instance)

I would buy it again with the need of such a device and a corresponding budget. Go for it, it's a cool stuff and you'll learn how to deal with those weaknesses really fast.

Excellent field recorder, CD and cinema short recorded so far.
Davezawadi 13.12.2014
This recorder is much more than a slr add on. The feature set compares well with competitors but the operating ergonomics are much better. It sits happily in a bag with full control access, without risk of accidental adjustment. I use with mkh416 and Rode stereo mic in wind jammer, excellent location results. Uses batteries a bit so use with usb battery pack!
