Excellent tutorial. Just purchase the DP-006 and the manual almost made me say "forget it". Stumbled on your tutorial and all has become clear. Nice slow clear explanation, with a drop of humor included. Thanks. Looking forward to delving into your other videos.

Thank you so much for this video. I was glad to see that the three input levels, low, medium, and high are in effect just either cuts or boosts, and that the actual fine adjustment is done with the input's level control. Thankfully, I don't see any evidence of there being some sort of automatic limiter, which was my number one concern, and is the primary reason why I can't do at least some casual recording using my (Android) phone. Thanks again.

Guitar has a built in preamp too, how on earth do I get the input levels higher as in your video? I am at a loss atm to be honest and need some help. Cheers. Andy

You need to either plug in headphones or a speaker to the side of the Tascam, because it does not have a playback speaker of it's own. (or if this is not the problem, make sure you press both the red record button and the button with an arrow on it when starting a recording)

My son got me the 006 for Christmas. I'm already wondering if we should return it and get one of the 8 tracks, 03X I think is the latest. Then again, it's just me at home but i will be sharing tracks with an out of state friend.who uses computer DAW. Thoughts? Also, I'm a slow learner.

@StudioonaStick 2 жыл бұрын

If you aren't going to do a lot of processing and are mainly concerned with recording raw tracks, a 006 is adequate. The mic ins are a bit limiting since they are not xlr but that's not a huge deal if you are in a small "studio" environment. Cable runs will be short and interference will be negligent. Plus you can use a $10 DI box to solve that issue if it arises. I like the DP series because it's a bit larger and more user friendly. The newer handheld style models are excellent for portability and features, but they are more difficult to navigate and use. If you are going to record tracks and export them to your friend for mixing and mastering, you have what you need, I'd just add a DI box. Thanks.

@@StudioonaStick Thanks for the input. User friendly is good. I'm sticking with what I've got. If I get serious and also need more tracks I can always upgrade.
