With decades of experience in professional recording technology, TASCAM offers purpose-built hardware designed for reliable operation in demanding production environments.
Our TASCAM selection focuses on professional media players and recorders along with portable handheld and field recorders. Whether you need an automated rackmount recorder for an installed AV system or a compact recorder for production in the field, TASCAM provides solutions designed around practical professional workflows.
Media Players & Recorders
TASCAM professional media recorders are designed for installations where dependable recording, playback, automation, and system integration are essential. These rackmount solutions are well suited to broadcast facilities, commercial AV systems, educational institutions, houses of worship, conference facilities, live production, and other professional environments.
Depending on the model, available capabilities include solid-state SD recording, USB media support, CD recording and playback, high-resolution WAV recording, network file transfer, scheduled operation, professional balanced and digital audio connections, remote control, and network audio integration.
Models such as the TASCAM SS-R250N and SS-CDR250N provide proven network-enabled recording and playback platforms with dual SD card slots and extensive professional connectivity. The newer SS-R300N expands the platform for modern AV environments with features including 32-bit float recording and integrated network-audio capabilities.
Built for Professional AV Workflows
TASCAM media players and recorders can provide the connectivity and operational flexibility required for both standalone systems and fully integrated AV installations. Professional analog and digital audio interfaces allow compatible models to connect directly with mixers, DSPs, amplifiers, broadcast systems, and other production equipment.
Network-enabled models can further simplify workflows through functions such as remote operation, audio-file transfer, automated recording and playback, and centralized content management. Selected models also support Dante network audio, providing another option for integration into modern IP-based AV systems.
Portable & Field Recorders
TASCAM portable recorders provide professional audio capture in compact formats designed for filmmaking, videography, interviews, journalism, podcast production, live events, sound effects, music recording, and location sound.
For video and location-production workflows, models such as the TASCAM FR-AV2 combine high-resolution recording with 32-bit float technology, professional microphone inputs, low-noise preamplification, and timecode capabilities. These features make it possible to build compact production rigs while maintaining the audio quality and synchronization capabilities required for professional work.
32-Bit Float Recording
Selected TASCAM recorders support 32-bit float recording, providing an exceptionally wide working dynamic range. This is particularly useful for field production, interviews, live events, and other situations where audio levels can change rapidly or where there may be limited opportunity to adjust gain during a take.
For production teams, 32-bit float recording can simplify level management while preserving greater flexibility when recorded material reaches post-production.
Timecode for Video Production
Timecode-equipped TASCAM field recorders are designed to integrate audio more efficiently into professional video workflows. Synchronizing recorder and camera timecode can significantly simplify matching separately recorded audio with video during editing and post-production.
The FR-AV2, for example, provides timecode input and output in a compact field recorder, making it suitable for camera rigs and production environments where dedicated audio recording and accurate synchronization are required.
