Advantages of Audio Recorders • You can assign someone to just record audio, so they can get closer to the talent with a microphone for a better recording. • TASCAM recorders are purpose-built for audio, so setting audio levels and adjusting settings is often as easy as a single button press or switch • You can set the audio recording level to be manual or automatic • TASCAM handheld recorders have a limiter during recording, so that sudden loud sounds won't be distorted. • The separate line out and headphone out on the DR-100 allows you to listen in headphones while you send a copy of the signal to your camera to sync up later. • A selectable low cut filter allows you to cut bass rumble or wind noise while recording • Dual batteries on the DR-100 allow you to swap batteries for extended battery life - even while recording 7733 Telegraph Rd • Montebello, CA • 90640 • 323.726.0303 • www.tascam.com © 2011 TASCAM, a division of TEAC America.
