SanDisk Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC 128GB

The DR-40X is a versatile four-track audio recorder for musicians, podcasters and other users with high demands on sound quality. It is based on the highly successful Tascam DR-40 and adds a few more functions to the already extensive range of features.Its adjustable cardioid condenser microphones can handle high sound pressure levels and can be used either in XY configuration for particularly clean recordings with low phase shift or in AB orientation for a wider stereo field. You can also connect your own microphones or line-level sources via two Neutrik XLR/TRS combo jacks that support both microphone levels and line levels at +4 dBu from mixing consoles or the FOH desk. The mic preamps feature 48-volt phantom power and a wide gain range to capture everything from soft whispers to loud live sounds. The built-in stereo microphones allow you to pick up the sounds of the audience and record the performance from the mixer at the same time - ideal for live recordings. Like its predecessor, the DR-40X features dual recording with different levels, which helps to avoid distortion and thus offers additional security.The layout of the DR-40X has been redesigned so that it is easy to operate with the thumb. Operations such as recording, adjusting the level, deleting unwanted takes and adding marks can be achieved at the touch of a button. The menus are available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Russian, Chinese, Korean and Japanese. In addition to manual levelling, there are three different automatic functions to choose from (limiter, peak reduction, auto level), which can help to avoid distortion during recording. Apply one of six reverb effects to the input or output signal and use the overdub function to add speech, vocals or instruments to existing recordings. Use the automatic level levelling to compensate for sudden volume jumps during playback and the built-in speaker to quickly check recordings. Other features such as variable speed, depth filters, a chromatic tuning function and others are also accessible via the menu.The new dictation mode simplifies skipping forwards and backwards during playback at pre-set time intervals. It can be combined with the variable speed and a special voice EQ, which is helpful when transcribing recorded meeting minutes, for example. The new overwrite recording function allows you to set an entry point from which an existing recording is overwritten as with a conventional tape recorder.In addition to recording on the go, the DR-40X can also be used as a USB audio interface with two inputs and outputs. This makes it a powerful tool for dubbing, live streaming, podcasting and composing in studio quality.
