Tascam DR-05 Portable Handheld Digital Audio Recorder, Silver - Bundle With 4x AA Alkaline Batteries, Microfiber Cloth

Works well and the sound quality is good. The recorder takes a TRS plug, allowing me to use some of the mics I had on hand. SD card and batteries were included, so I was able to get up and running quickly. Only complaints are that the plastics on the recorder feel a little cheap, and navigation menus take a little getting used to.

Spectacular combo , Tascam recorder does it’s job , selection on the audio out format capabilities is a plus , connected to the different microphones also sets the bar up . Really happy with this products

Love being able to capture high quality audio anywhere, without much noise. Beats using a cellphone for practice.

The recorder arrived a day earlier than what was mentioned when I ordered it. Adorama's website is very easy to use and I had no problem ordering it from my cell phone. The recorder is great and is quite easy to use. Two thumbs up to Adorama and Tascam. Regards Shankar Sundaram

First time user of an audio recorder. Quality is great. Personally feel like it’s unnecessarily complicated to use. Still don’t understand how to create folders and save files to select folders. But I’m sure I’ll figure it out. Overall it’s crisp and clean haven’t used the actual mic on the recorder since I own a shotgun mic. But I’m happy with my purchase. Don’t know if I’d choose it over the zoom h1n. But if it’s on sale for $80 or less I’d say go for it.

A whole lotta features for the price. Had a problem with original recorder however Adorama made an exchange promptly. Audio quality is excellent, for our use there are far more features than we could ever make application to. Having both a SD card & USB allows us to download recordings to several of our devices without need for adapters. The playback audio is poor, about what you would expect from size of the enclosed 14mm speaker, no disappointment though. However there is one glaring feature missing, it won't brew a cup of coffee. . . . . Richard Richard

It works well and is easy to use. I recorded some spring peepers outside and it picked them up pretty well. My Daughter liked the chromatic tuner. I'm hoping that I can record Brand X at a club in Baltimore soon, that will be the real test. I put a 32GB flash card in it so even at the max sample rate I'm good for like 16hrs, gotta love that!

The Tascam DR-05 recorder that I purchased performs very well. For the price and quality this recorder is hard to beat. I'm a big fan of Tascam because of good engineering that goes into their products. I'm a big fan of Adorama because they stock good products. I highly recommend the DR-05 for those looking for high usability and longivity without breaking your budget. I give it 5 stars for its price and features. MGP

I couldn't adjust the play back volume and found the overall operations to difficult to learn. I returned it.

Well made and at a great price offered by Adorama, the best in the marketplace. Simple to use especially for interviews and save them on your computer. Thank you Adorama for a Great Price!

I've owned higher end versions of this same recorder in the past so I already know what those versions are capable of and was familiar with the interface. The nicer versions have, by far, better microphones. Still, this is a good option if you're on a budget.

Very easy to use. Sound quality pretty good. I would like to see better auto levels when speaker is further from the recorder. Copying audio files to computer works well, either from device or from micro-SD.

I use this to capture all audio for video interviews as well as sound effects. It's also great to record meetings on.

Easy device to learn how to use, and the recordings are easy to transfer to computer. Would recommend for the price!

Purchased for my daughter who needs a voice recorder for a research project. Lightweight and more than adequate quality for voice and causal live musical recording (the DACs should support an external mic for more serious recording). Only qualm is that the unit feels chunky and not as well-built in comparison to my Edirol R0-9. Overall, a good value, especially when on sale.

Sensitive, crisp recording. Output speaker volume is a bit low, but enough to tell recorder is operational. Played through external speakers, sound is excellent. Very good value for the money.

Extremely high fidelity. Great control of noise levels and selected tone range. Larger size recorder the some small pocket recorders but thats not a problem for my work.
