A professional-grade voice recorder that claims to deliver "studio-quality sound" in a compact format. Such quality is ensured both by the characteristics of digitization — up to 96 kHz / 24 bits — and by a number of design features and original functions; here it is worth highlighting the auto-levelling with smoothing of loudness peaks and a low-pass filter. In addition, special features for musicians are provided, in particular, a tuner and a change in playback speed with a constant sound pitch. The recorder is equipped with its own stereo microphone, but it can also work from an external one. Recording is done on microSD cards.

Little more than a voice recorder

The peculiarity of the model is the presence of two inputs and outputs (four ports in total) for connecting peripheral devices and an extended recording management menu. The manufacturer positions the Tascam DR-05 as a universal voice recorder that can be used to record conversations, and for podcasts, voice clips and movies, and even streaming. Connects to an external microphone, computer, mixer or equalizer. So, in fact, in front of you is an extremely multifunctional device suitable for everyone who works with sound. This moment was also reflected in the quality of the recording. There are two stereo microphones with high sensitivity, capable of capturing the smallest sound nuances in the surrounding space. On the other hand, such functionality is evaluated accordingly. The cost of the device is unlikely to suit students for recording lectures or students of seminars and electives. Tascam DR-05, nevertheless, is a professional device.

For those who speak fast

One of the features of the device is a fairly wide range of voice recording settings. The thing is that audio tracks can be edited right during the recording process, re-record phrases by rewinding the recording for five or ten seconds, put marks and distribute files in a directory in the voice recorder's memory. And given the possibility of installing an additional memory card (microSD or microSDHC format), there are a lot of records, and editing them is done literally by pressing a couple of buttons.

Music device

It is also necessary to note the sound recording mode over existing tracks - overdubbing. Those. take the backing track of a song (for example), and over it you record your voice or your own guitar part. Of course, this feature is useful not only for musicians, but also for video bloggers and those involved in video processing.

Tascam DR-05 is positioned rather as an interface for working with sound and processing, although it can be used as a regular voice recorder. The device is useful even for organizing radio broadcasting, not to mention recording lectures or interviews.

Recording time:
  • WAV 44kHz/16bit — 6h 44m
  • WAV 96kHz/24bit — 2h04
