Questions & Answers
You can use a second high definition microphone to pick up other sounds as well. Make sure that you choose an omnidirectional mic and a high quality, high end model if you do get a second microphone.
There is no need for an adapter. You can use either Micro SD or standard SD cards
The rode wireless go mic works nicely with this, particularly when you connect it to the 1/8" port, which is very useful for recording lectures. I always use the wireless rode Go mic with this and they do an excellent job.
Selected User Reviews For Tascam DR-05X RED Stereo Handheld Digital Recorder and USB Audio Interface with 16GB MicroSD Memory Card
When it comes to recording audio on YouTube, I simply love using the tascam. My ASMR videos are characterized by excellent audio quality, so I place a high premium on this aspect of my work. It's great to have a recorder like this! My video recordings begin immediately when I set up the right settings and use its easy-to-use menu. The chargers and memory cards are included, but you can purchase the USB cord This device uses a micro USB port, so you probably have one around your house already. If you're looking to improve the audio quality of your recordings, I highly recommend this.
The sound on my YouTube channel has improved since I got this. When I work with this, I use the lavalier mic most of the time, but I have also used the directional mic for some two-way I have not had any battery problems so far it has lasted about five hours with no problems. It picks up voices with clear sound and has a good tone. Also, it keeps out other background noises and wind noise.
I found the unit to be excellent. A new menu has been added to this model that was previously available. This was my new one to replace the previous one that I had. A menu navigation and option system that is easier to use. This tiny device from Rode is very versatile. I love the 1/8" TRS input I use for my rode wireless. In addition to being a backup audio recorder, it is also a videography tool. In some cases, the primary source is used. Excellent buy, 1/2 " thread on bottom which allows me to mount a tripod on top of a table or a standard tripod of a camera to eliminate floor vibration, and aim toward audio sources.
This has been my camera for the past 10 years, and I use it every day. My recorder works fine with no issues. (lent it to someone who hasn't finished using it yet) I couldn't go without a handy recorder for an unknown period of time. I use it for music, podcasts, and general speech. I am currently working on a project about family history. Because of its portability, it is the ideal solution. As a recording method, I prefer the quality of the sound to that of a phone. Honestly, the only reason I did not choose another 05, but the 05x, is because the red color option appealed to me more.
(With an earpiece mic sold separately) I use this product to record doctor office and phone visits. This is a great product.
While the menu can be tricky to master, the quality of the sound makes it such a worthwhile.
The quality of the product is poor. I find the noise to be loud. My return will be for a Zoom H1, which I prefer.
