If you don't have the budget to splash out on a Sound Devices or the like, you may want to try the Tascam dr-70d. It has all the features you mentioned, decent build and audio quality for the price and can even be improved with a swap on op-amps..

Re: [Frameworks] audio recorder recomendations?
I'm partial to the Roland R-26 as a basic field recorder with built-in mics, XLR inputs, and phantom power. It's nothing fancy, but can handle some abuse, and I appreciate having independent gain adjustment for the inputs. The specs allow you to record up to 6-channels, but it's really going to be some combination of 2 XLR OR 2 1/4" channels + stereo from the built-in mics + stereo from a mini-plug. If you want something that will handle more than 2 external pro mics, this isn't it. It's similar to the Zoom H4n, which is also an OK basic field recorder w/ XLR inputs and phantom power, but which requires you to use the menu interface to control gain during recording. -Jason Halprin Jason Halprin jihalp...@gmail.com jasonhalprin.com ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
Re: [Frameworks] audio recorder recomendations?
You can buy a couple cheap models from Zoom that are unimpressive but inexpensive., You can buy a couple models from Tascam that are a good bit more money but definitely have better analogue electronics. Then you go up a huge step and you can buy stuff from guys like Zaxcom, or Sound Devices. This is the point where you start getting decent grade preamps where you can afford to be sloppy with gains. Then there's a step up from that with the Nagra and the Aaton Cantar So... it all depends on whether you want to put down $100 or $100,000. --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
