My favorite pocket recorder
This recorder is dependable and the sound quality is exactly what I needed to conduct interviews, it's compact, first right in your pocket and it never loses a recording, I'm happy I bought this.

Great recorder. Great price.
Great recorder. I returned the Zoom which had a lot of noise. The Tascam is totally silent. This is my second Tascam DR-22WL. I use them for vlogging and videography work.

Requires manual gain selection for best results
High quality, learn to use manual mode. One good use of this device is to plug in headphone monitors so that you can hear what the microphone is hearing. Put it in manual mode and turn the gain all the way down. Slowly rise it until you are getting audio peaks at the expected level for voice, music, whatever. Record and you're good!

Quality and Value. No brainier decision.
The main and most important thing you need to know is that this product delivers great audio. The build quality is decent and sturdy even though it feels like a chunk of plastic in your hands. The recording quality, features, and functionality at this price is one of the best values at this level.

High expectations in a small form.
Haven't opened the box yet but am excited to record acoustics and dialogue with it.

Great for the price
For a simple audio recorder this is great. If you've never used anything more than your phone camera before this is a great starting place for video production.

Set it and forget it
Very simple to use with the preset dials.
Used it in a wedding event and the sound quality was awesome.
I just needed just the important parts like the speeches, vows, etc. and this was able to get the sound I needed.
Got it on a great price during one of Adorama's sale.

Compact and useful!
Works great for what I needed, which was a lightweight, small recorder for scratch track for my Alexa Classic via Line out to 5-pin XLR. Only way it could be better is if hit has an XLR input, but that'd be for a different unit entirely.

Couldn't adjust record levels
I couldn't adjust tbe record levels and audio was always peaking. I must've received a defective unit but i had no problems returning it.

Love the WiFi feature but wish for a more detailed instruction.
Could use a better instruction to understand the nuance of the different setting. Pretty to easy to use once I take the time to figure it out.

It can be better
I can only describe it as a product that is rough around the edges. The battery does not last very long with WiFi on. If I have the speaker on, the headphone plugged in, and if the WiFi is on, the battery does not have enough juice to power everything. It will shut the WiFi off. What?!!! The interface is usable. The WiFi works when it wants to. It shuts off in about half an hour to an hour. The only reason I would give it 4 Stars is because it has a lot of function for the money and the recording sounds decent.

Easy to use, works well
Very easy to use and works well. Comes with an SD card already installed. My only concern is that the on-board microphone does not pick up sound all that well. I used a plug-in microphone and it worked great.

Great value for money
Typical Tascam recording functionality at a discounted price and the trade-off is certainly manageable, especially if you are a hobbyist (pros will want to spend more for the added features and functions)...smaller body and a bit lightweight but still a great little recorder...I only wish the microphones moved to better align with the source. Very crisp recording though...

Most excellent recorder.
Got this little fella to do traveling interviews for my pod cast. Have not got to use it in the field yet, but home testing has proved to be very nice and better than expected. Can't wait to try it for recording live shows. Would definitely recommend.

First Recorder
I bought this device to record band rehearsals. I am very pleased with the sound quality. My only issue is (and its minor). I wish it had the SD card and not the micro SD. I am still learning how to use this recorder but right out of the box it sounds pretty good.

Noisy mic input distortion
Although the recorder seems to operate correctly with the use of the attached microphones, I was not able to use the microphone input because of significant noise. The mics that I use are condensers with a separate preamp. This exact setup works properly with the inexpensive Zoom that I used prior to the Tascam. The noise sounds a bit like radio frequency interference. I would describe it as a smearing of the mid to high frequency of 100 milliseconds with swirl. The distortion is reported elsewhere on the internet with some resolution that seems to be random. Testing of the cabling up to the connection is crystal clear. Output of the Tascam is distorted in the same way. I will be returning the recorder.

Very happy with the purchase did not break my bank for and it was black Friday sale. You can't go wrong for $ free shipping. Thanks adorama.
Like the Wi-Fi feature very nice I can control the recorder from my smartphone, quick preset dial is very helpful for recording on the fly.
I would recommended getting pop filter if you are recording interview or close up. Reverb, low cut filter was also nice to have.
