OVERVIEW TASCAM"s DR-05 Version 2 (w/ 4GB memory card) brings high-quality stereo recording to an easy-to-us, portable digital recording powerhouse with a size and price that anyone can handle. The DR-05 records in MP3 or WAV format - including 96kHz/24-bit high-resolution audio - to microSD or microSDHC media. A pair of all-new microphones handles up to 125dB SPL with the sensitivity to capture every detail. With new recording features like Peak Reduction and Quick Menu, the DR-05 puts album-quality recording in the palm of your hand. PREMIUM QUALITY SOUND Everything about the DR-05 is designed to get the best quality recordings of your music. A new pair of built-in microphones withstands up to 125dB SPL - the volume of a jet plane from 200 feet away - yet still have the sensitivity to capture every detail of a performance. You can add your own microphone or line-level source through the 1/8" stereo input, including plug-in power for microphones that need it. Internally, the DR-05"s digital and analog circuit boards are built separately to increase noise performance, with a low-impedance design to further decrease hiss. A separate power supply is sent to the A/D and D/A converter for even better audio performance. The result is clean sound quality - over 92dB signal to noise ratio, under 0.05% total harmonic distortion and 20Hz to 40kHz response (-1/+3dB) at 96kHz/24-bit resolution. VERSION 2 ADDS OVERDUBBING, MARKS, AND OTHER NEW RECORDING FEATURES A new non-destructive overdubbing feature has been added, allowing musicians to put together the elements of a song piece-by-piece in a portable handheld format. A reverb effect has been added, adding ambiance to recordings made in small spaces. A new auto recording function can begin recording automatically when level is detected. The auto mark function automatically adds a marker to tracks during recording, and the auto tone feature assists DSLR filmmakers when working on location.
