Tascam DP-004 Digital Pocketstudio draws upon Tascam's 30 years of experience in developing easy-to-use cassette Portastudios, for multi track recording. Tascam DP-004 may be pocket sized, but it delivers four tracks of CD-quality digital recording. DP004 is styled like those groundbreaking Portastudios of old, featuring easy to use knobs to set levels and pan instead of a list of menus.
Tascam DP-004 is capable of recording two input sources at once to the included 1GB SD Card. A built-in stereo condenser microphone on DP004 makes it simple to record anywhere you go, perfect for concerts, rehearsals and songwriting inspirations. A pair of 1/4" jacks on the rear panel allow you to connect your own microphones or sources. You can even switch the inputs to guitar level for recording.
The Tascam DP-004 allows you to build up your arrangement until you've filled up all four tracks. The Bounce feature allows you to consolidate tracks and make room for more overdub layers. Also available is an autopunch feature for fixing problems, track editing and an undo function. Mixing is also built into the Digital Pocketstudio. Once you set levels and pan, record your mix onto a dedicated stereo master track. You're able to transfer your tracks and mixes to a computer over USB 2 for CD burning and sharing online.
Despite its go-anywhere compact design - smaller than a paperback book - the Tascam DP-004 is simple enough for students, songwriters and musicians who want to keep their recording process simple and creative.
