Everything about the Tascam DR-05 Version 2 Portable Handheld Recorder is designed to get the best quality recordings of your music. The built-in microphones still have the sensitivity to capture every detail of a performance. You can add your own microphone or line-level source through the 1/8 stereo input, including plug-in power for microphones that need it. Internally, the DR-05's digital and analog circuit boards are built separately to increase noise performance, with a low-impedance design to further decrease hiss. A separate power supply is sent to the A/D and D/A converter for even better audio performance. The layout of the Tascam DR-05 Version 2 Portable Handheld Recorder has been revamped to be quick and easy to work with one thumb. Operations like recording, adjusting levels, deleting bad takes and adding markers are just a button press away. Dig deeper to find features like limiting, low cut filtering, a built-in chromatic tuner and more. One feature that makes the DR-05 easy to operate is the peak reduction feature. This setting automatically sets your recording level by listening to the input and adjusting for the best level. Unlike auto gain settings, this one only goes down to prevent accidental distortion after a period of low level like a break. Peak recording works in rehearsal mode or in record, so if the performance is louder than the soundcheck you're still safe.
