How are you guys and girls using your DR-40x? Internal or external mics?? I hear a lot of people are using them for ASMR?
what is ASMR? THIS? de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_Sensory_Meridian_Response
im looking into trying it for asmr soon
Would have been nice to hear the guitar in both a,b and x,y configurations.
You sound so kind and knowledgable. Thank you! :)
Thanks for the video. I wish you had done more than just the one matchbox demo.
I had to subscribe. Excellent videos!!
Thank you
friend, never let your small finger over the guitar or in severeal years you will have a lot of pain, beleive me ;)
Thank you so much for this wonderful video tascam rules always :D
Thanks for the tip!
thank you for the stereo test!
Your welcome! Hope it was helpful
VERY VERY HELPFUL! THANK YOU!! 😊👍
Great. Many thanks.
This is a great video: in-built MICs sound better than I expected: I'll be doing fireplace, rain and wind atmos sounds with it and was wondering if I'll need to be connecting up external mics - but by the sound of your tests I may not even need them.
Great explanation. Can you make a video on how to use the built in mic to do great voice recordings used for voice overs?
Thank you for the video! It's great! Did you testing the Tascam DR-07X?
I really hope Dickey has seen this🙂
Check out my equipment list and let me know what you want a review or tutorial about next!
Since the mics are movable from xy to ab, And each position has its own qualities, I’m wondering if it’s possible to position the mics in between those 2 settings and get a hybrid sound that gives you the positive features of each position to some degree?
Thx
Rob
It’s always worth experimenting. You might end up with best of both, or worst of both!
Good quality
How about listening in headphones and record in simul sync type mode ? Song writing.
Yes, listening through headphones whilst recording is definitely recommended
Buongiorno volevo chiedere come posso collegare i mic. lavalier ( sennheiser, Rode ecc..) direttamente
perchè non sono riuscito a farli funzionare in tutti i modi collegamenti bilanciati sbilanciati TRS XLR settaggi vari ecc..
premetto che i lavalier funzionano perfettamente come pure i vari mic fucile ( Sennheiser MK6.. Rode NTG...)
Grazie Rasty
Are two channels reserved for the built in mics or can i use all 4 channels for line level instruments (for example). Does it have metronome??
Hey man i have a 1/4 adaptor to 3.5mm connected to my mic to the Tascam Dr40X but even if i set the parameters correct it does not record audio, do you have that problem?
So AB do asmr better than XY?
Can anyone help....? I've set up Record mode as INT STEREO / DUAL RECORD. Hit 'record' - flashes - set levels - hit record again - solid red. Then....it records for 5 seconds and stops recording and flashes red again. It then counts this 5 sec recording as a ''track'' in the Music Files. It's like there is a setting somewhere which is allowing only for 5 seconds of recording. Same thing happens if I use Ext Line In. PS... I've had this for 2 yrs but only learning to use it the last few days. I wonder if it is a software update issue. Any help much appreciated. Wanted to use it tonight....
I am just going to sing directly into the same setup yx as it comes.
Hey, for singing give it a go with an external mic. It’ll sound much better than the built in mics.
@@tripleeightproductions Why this happens exactly? I thought the mics were the strong point of the recorder? Thanks.
