Introduction

The TASCAM DR-70D is a compact four-channel field recorder and mixer designed specifically for DSLR, mirrorless camera, filmmaking, documentary, interview, and location-sound production. Four balanced XLR/TRS combo inputs provide connections for professional microphones and line-level equipment, while TASCAM HDDA microphone preamps deliver clean amplification with an Equivalent Input Noise specification of -120dBu or lower.

The DR-70D records up to four tracks of 96kHz/24-bit WAV or BWF audio and incorporates dedicated features for working alongside a camera. Camera input and output connections simplify monitoring and guide-track recording, while automatic and manual slate tones assist with synchronization during post-production. Built-in stereo microphones, 24V/48V phantom power, dual recording, input delay, limiting, low-cut filtering, Mid-Side decoding, and flexible camera mounting make the DR-70D a practical centerpiece for compact video-production audio rigs.
