Tascam DR-05X Digital Recorder // The Sound Professionals

[@soundprovideos]

Note: The DR-05X SD card slot has been flipped 180deg since this video was made. The SD card should now be inserted contacts-down.

@soundprovideos Trying to record vinyl sets connecting this to my pioneer djm-450 but still hearing external audio like conversations, fingers snapping etc. Even when input level lowered. Turned mic power off on tascam but still same issue. Any advice?

[@harryblox760]

Tip. If you're recording a sequence of sounds you can hit recording by double pressing to recording your sound and then press record again to pause the recording. This way everything you recrd will be on one stem. If you press the Stop button that ends that recording completely and will start a new recording and time stamp when your record again. Hope that helps?

[@stevejeffrey11]

Good for recording a song , thanks man

[@emach07]

Holy Hallelujah!! I've got over an hour now trying to track down how the heck you adjust the input recording level on this thing. One after another in depth video but not one of the dang videos showed how to set that dang record input level. I did it a year or so ago but was trying to record my band the other day and all I got was a horrible distorted recorder even after putting the recorder in a separate room with the door closed. I know I recorded TONS of stuff with my 100 watt tube Marshall amp a year ago VERY loud when testing out pedals, pickups, etc. and had the input level on like zero. But the other day all I could find was the -db in the record menu which didn't do jack. You are a life saver my friend! Thanks so much 🤩

[@adamparker2754]

Out of all the videos I was searching I find this one pretty much goes right to what we really need to set up appreciated

[@Kahuna_550]

Is that top connector for a mic a TRS or 3.5mm?

[@jordanmishael709]

Super helpful! Recorded my last DJ set with clipped audio because I didn't know how to turn the input level down until now, thanks!

[@rlowle1228]

Your demo so much better Than the others.

[@stephenmason5773]

Thank you! Mine doesn't have "manual" recording levels but I used "limiter" to help dial I the input volume.. I tried using Auto, and it just distorted all my audio.. thanks for th3 video!

[@markorodokopljev9224]

How do I connect the tascam with my android phone? I'd like to have a video whilst recording the sound

[@OregonDARRYL]

A tiny speaker for locating record position would be awesome guys...

[@marianpavlik6352]

Hello, I used to have DR-05 for 10 years, then it went dead. So far I was satisfied with the product. The only downside was interferences with my mobile phone. Is this solved with X model?

[@staticsnow22]

Thank you this was super helpful!!

[@richpumphrey2048]

Hey there. Great video on the Tascam DR-05 X. I need to know about overdubbing on this product. I need to quickly get to it because I am familiar with the old Tascam DR-05, but this new and awesome product has overdubbing. Can you give me more information about this in a video? Thanks.

[@01dumbfrog]

Thanks does it matter what memory capacity for the Micro SD card?

[@waynemiller6070]

I bought the DR -05 some years ago for less than $50 and it came with the usb cord and SD card. This is $90. doesn't come with anything. Lucky to get it in a box.

[@brianvalerio7858]

Is this good for recording dj mixes off the cdjs 2000 n2?

[@muddstock]

Can you name files/songs from the TASCAM DR-05X?

[@manutecsounds]

Hi Good, but was expecting testing sound

[@_RocKhan_]

Does it have monitoring option, I'll record the guitar first then I'll send it to headphone and start to record vocal. Does monitoring and recording work at the same time?

[@GarryReyom]

Can you charge rechargeable batteries with the Tascam?

[@soundprovideos]

I don't believe so, the USB power connection only powers the device

[@ReclaimingBalance]

Hi - Under SUB my only options are sd card reader or Audio i/f. I donʻt see a bus option - pls advise

[@iRideuWatch]

Does it have an audio output to connect to a video camera?

[@thetourle]

Mine same model has a 3.5mm stereo output which can monitor the input.

[@Chicago_Clout]

You did a bery good presentation.

[@nickjimenez4262]

So my understanding is this is just a track and the recording goes on a SD card. If i recorded rhythm guitar to a click track then played that while playing and recording say another rhythm guitar on another dr 05 couldnt i keep adding and playing like this for 10 tracks?

[@sunsetstormx]

I would like to understand better how to delete a song or a file that you just don't want on there anymore. I noticed that some of the ones I have chosen I can delete and other ones I can't seem to figure out how to delete.

[@behmerbehm9021]

Does the tascam dr-05x have phantom power if you wanted to plug in a condenser mic?

[@Peter46350]

Yes, but it's just for electret mic - the battery voltage.

[@TheMonolake]

How do you get rid of beep between recordings during playback

[@soundprovideos]

Not sure, might be a setting for that in SYSTEM?

[@rhysie9983]

very informative, thanks.

[@geralldus]

Thank you, very helpful.

[@AntonioChiessa]

can i record music direct from a output rec mixer to line input in this tascam ?

[@endrizo]

not in this basic model. you need the dr40

[@patricksmith4424]

I am doing it at the moment on the dr05x. Well it's from an old tape deck but I would imagine it's the same. I am using 2rca into stereo 3.5 and putting it into the mic port. Make sure the input levels are low as it will overload.

[@marshallclark1127]

any idea how to get decent quality into audacity? The interface works but the recording quality is terrible. anyone know the settings? thanks

[@MarkoAssi_pokervlogger]

Can it detect a mono mic jack?

[@paulsjunkcars]

Great video.

[@morescode1]

Trying to hear recording through internal speaker anything I can try in the settings?

[@TheJimiChannel]

I put a 128gb micro SDXC card in my DR-05X and got a message "Invalid SysFile". It won't allow me to "Make Sys File". All buttons just froze. Anyone know how to fix this?

[@robinjones6692]

Hi, I found you video very helpful. You said, if you wanted to listen to playback externally, just plug in your earphone. Can I do this using external speakers? Also, can I record by plugging the DR X 05 into a standard radio through the headphone port. Thanks for any feedback you give. Rob.

[@mollyp.sasser223]

If you have a 3.5mm cable w/ males on both ends.

[@matthewjdouglas6471]

What is this device used for. Who uses this type of device. I only ask because I was gifted one by a gentleman who was clearing put his father's house who had just passed away. I know they are about £100+ in the uk. Same model as what you have here.

[@soundprovideos]

Field recording, general voice recording and voice memos. Also court reporters recording court proceedings and depositions.

[@matthewjdouglas6471]

@@soundprovideos thanks for the info. I have one and had no idea what to do with it. I will probably sell it. Don't think I'll get much for it. But I'm sure it has some value to the correct person.

[@stevejeffrey11]

You could plug it into a computer & use it as a microphone Sounds pretty good

[@DagAreHalland]

No audio preview?

[@michasreisefieber]

When I use an extermal microphone I don't get any sound during my recordings. How can I fix that?

[@soundprovideos]

Does the microphone work in other devices? If so, check the input on the DR-05x.

[@Chicago_Clout]

Turn it on.

[@minskie]

What’s it Sound like????!!!

[@petercampobasso1802]

What are those two numbers before the date stamp? 22?

[@soundprovideos]

Should be the year, 2022.

[@spareplanet]

Is it multichannel? Can you load a stereo music track onto it, for use as a guide/backing/accompaniment track, and then record a vocal track on it? How about multiple, non-destructive takes?

[@3kingkool]

Yes

[@endrizo]

no..its not a multitrack portastudio

[@ebeelamar]

Line in recording

[@DipakKNag]

Is this sound proof

[@elwirastadnik]

The sound of these snaps made it unbearable to watch. Sorry, mate.

[@t.h.worden2623]

Not ONE of these DR-05x videos addresses the AutoTone/ToneSecs/ToneVol in the record menu. And the unit manual is fucking worthless as far a a lot of things go.

[@t.h.worden2623]

As in : WTF is "Head+Tail", just "Head', just "Tail" in Auto Tone. Not a word about it anywhere, even on utooob. WTF!?

[@i-freq]

​@@t.h.worden2623 its just beeps differently, nothing more

[@mollyp.sasser223]

do not know what that refers to. What beeps "dif"? And dif from what?

[@i-freq]

@@mollyp.sasser223 different beeping at the beginning (head) and/or at the end of recording (tail)

[@starshipgraffiti]

Recording of live bands sounds cheap

[@buttturkeyclips4891]

is this not a good option for recording live bands?
