Recorder Tascam DR-70D

Tascam DR-70D is designed for recording high-quality audio material in parallel with the digital DSLR camera. The recorder is mounted between the tripod and the camera or on top of the camera. Two built-in microphone allow the device to always be ready for recording. In addition, it has 4 XLT/TRS combo connectors for connecting professional microphones. Through the door on the camera, the stereo signal from the recorder can be recorded with a camera, code-tone signal for easier editing of the material. On the other hand, you can use the input from the camera for audio monitoring cameras with a recorder.
