Best Recorder! - I LOVE THIS RECORDER! I had heard horror stories about the competitor, Zoom H1 (about audio drifting off-sync after a while, the built quality of the Zoom, etc), and I took my chance on this wonderful product! I know there are Zoom lovers but I have a budget and don't want to spend $100 twice so I went with the best option for my situation. You can definitely hear the (good) difference in this. I have a Rode Video MIC GO and most of you know that the GO doesn't have many settings to turn down the hiss and everything in the audio, but if you plug it into this recorder, it just goes away, especially if you re speaking and there is no surrounding noise. I even tried recording ambience/sound effects with my Rode directly into the Tascam and it was so amazing! I am amazed and know for sure that I made the right choice! You can clearly hear the difference from the audio with the Rode into the camera and the Rode into this Tascam recorder. Now, I am no one to judge on the internal MIC of this system (the top two channeled MICs) because I haven't used it yet, but I have a couple projects with required voice-overs and will update this review to let you guys know how it sounded and I am sure it would sound great! All the buttons are easy to click, access, and use and the settings are WAY too simple. I am no man of sound/audio and I only do it because I am currently a one man band film maker (15 years old; I have no other choice) so I'm forced to learn all of these settings and stuff but I was really surprised at how the settings were clear, simple, and short! I also love the additional headphone jack to listen to the audio because being on set a couple times, I have always wanted to look like a boom MIC operator with the boom pole and headphones, haha! So that is a great touch! Well, I've said everything I know about this recorder and I hope you take my word for consideration in choosing what field recorder you should buy! Review: Ideal for Band Practices - Records great live performances. Using it for my band at rehearsal. You definitely need to be playing loud for it to pick up sound well- though you can also use Nero Wave Editor or another program to turn up the volume on the file afterwards (on your computer). It's a great, inexpensive, device to use for rehearsals or other live music events... if allowed! I kind of like that it has batteries so I don't have to recharge it - I can just carry extra batteries and not have to wait to recharge it. I used for about 9 hours so far and batteries are still good... ## Features - Discontinued Model Replaced by Improved DR-05X - Portable recorder ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00LU8K790 | | Best Sellers Rank | #41,591 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #61 in Portable Studio Recorders #476 in Digital Voice Recorders | | Brand | Tascam | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer, Smartphone, Other Audio Equipment | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 1,613 Reviews | | Flash Memory Type | Micro SD/SDHC | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04907034124527 | | Hardware Connectivity | USB 2.0 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 7.5"D x 2.4"W x 1.2"H | | Item Type Name | Portable Studio Recorder | | Item Weight | 0.3 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Tascam | | Media Speed | 18 MB/s | | Memory Storage Capacity | 4 GB | | Mfr Part Number | DR-05V2 | | Model Name | DR-05V2 | | Model Number | DR-05V2 | | Secure Digital Association Speed Class | Class 10 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Null. | | Warranty Type | No Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Tascam - **Compatible Devices:** Personal Computer, Smartphone, Other Audio Equipment - **Flash Memory Type:** Micro SD - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 4 GB - **Model Name:** DR-05V2 ## Images ![TASCAM DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IaEhs43jL.jpg) ![TASCAM DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+JejdXQCL.jpg) ![TASCAM DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71v5Ap-U5-L.jpg) ![TASCAM DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71pv7YUxRiL.jpg) ![TASCAM DR-05 Portable Digital Recorder - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617JGf3zpXL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does this record mp3s that I can put on my computer?** A: Yes! It has a wide range of mp3 quality recording settings (stereo or mono). Most of the time, I record in mp3 format. I usually use 192kbps, but others are available (32kbps-320kbps). Of course it also records in .WAV format for lossless quality at a cost of space. Any files recorded are transferred to your computer via included mini-USB to standard USB cable (USB2). I can't speak about the microphone quality, as I only record live events directly from my mixing console to the DR-05 via the line input of the DR-05. Love this unit. **Q: What is the recording capacity in hours** A: θ‹±θͺžIt comes with a microSDHC card of 4GB. It can record up to 149 hours with the supplied card capacity (when MP3 32kbps recording) **Q: Will this record interviews w/very soft speakers and louder recordings? Can the digital recordings be organized and edited on a PC or Mac?** A: It handles high sound pressure (e.g. rock bands). For quieter material, you can adjust its recording level yourself, or set it to automatically adjust itself. Recordings can be copied to your PC or Mac using the supplied USB cable, then it's up to you to provide your own editing software. Keep in mind: This is not an iPod, this is a serious techy device -- you will probably need to read the manual to get the most out of it. I did. **Q: can it record mono? can it be used as a microphone?** A: Yes, it has the option of recording in mono. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VERY PROUD!

I inserted a 32 gig card....be sure to get the right size....and it will record at the highest quality all night. I live close to trains that come by at about 40 mph. Direct line of sight. So, I put the Tascam on a tripod and recorded the whole episode, from the long approach to long distance departure. After I recorded it I sat in the patio of our backyard and plugged in a good headset to listen to what I recorded. It was so authentic sounding that I forgot I had headphones on and looked to see the loud train come by....and had to laugh because it was what I recorded minutes earlier. The recorder/playback is pretty intricate and complicated but, with reading glasses and with the pdf download manual I was able to master it. I recorded loud music over the weekend and it sounds great. I had to roll off the low end to eliminate the hollow room sound....which would have been sort of 'boomy'. It saves the settings you choose so you can set it up the way you need for your use and it will stay that way and always be ready to record. Good tool, worth the money. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tascam Portable Studio Recorder, Black, 7.5 x 2.4 x 1.2 inches (DR-05V2) - Hermitshell Hard EVA Travel Case for TASCAM DR-05 / Tascam DR-05X Portable Digital Recorder --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/11059720-tascam-dr-05-portable-digital-recorder](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/11059720-tascam-dr-05-portable-digital-recorder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
