Product Description
The Tascam DP-006 is an essential tool for songwriters. It comes with built-in microphones, allowing for multi-track recording anytime and anywhere! This battery-powered compact multi-track recorder is ready for your song ideas no matter where they strike. You can jot down all the key parts of your songs using this professional-sounding device. For longer battery life, it can connect directly to TASCAM's external battery pack (BP-6AA) via USB. With two built-in high-quality stereo condenser microphones at the front, you can record vocals or acoustic guitar on the spot without extra equipment or setup time. TASCAM conducted numerous evaluation tests to ensure the best sound quality. It's modeled after the top-selling DR series microphones. The DP-006 also has a tripod mount for flexible setup. Its interface is simple and easy to use, designed like an analog cassette MTR, with no unnecessary features to complicate recording. Both the DP-006 and DP-008EX feature ultra-lightweight designs. The DP-006 weighs only 360g (without AA batteries). They have two analog inputs for external microphones, electric/acoustic guitars, and other devices. You can connect a tablet with a conversion cable (not included). These recorders can record to SD/SDHC cards (up to 32GB) and transfer data at high speed via USB2.0. All your song ideas can be transferred using USB or SD card readers during the recording process, and the files can be used with DAWs. Key features include up to six tracks recording, CD quality recording, simultaneous recording and playback, a dedicated stereo master track, and more. Technical specs cover recording media, input/output levels, audio performance, and power requirements.
Using the Tascam DP-006 is a breeze. First, insert the SD/SDHC card into the recorder. You can use the built-in microphones for quick recordings. Just turn on the recorder and start capturing your vocals or acoustic guitar. If you want to use an external microphone or guitar, connect them to the analog inputs. For longer battery life, you can connect an external battery pack (TASCAM BP-6AA) via USB. When recording, you can select the microphone sensitivity from three positions (Low/Mid/High). Use the independent LEVEL/PAN(BALANCE) knobs for each track to adjust the sound. You can also use the chromatic tuner and metronome to keep your music in tune. To transfer your recordings, connect the recorder to your PC via USB2.0. You can backup and restore songs, and import/export files in Wav format. Remember to handle the SD/SDHC card carefully. Don't remove it while the recorder is writing data. Keep the recorder in a cool, dry place, within the operating temperature range of 41 to 95°F (5 to 35°C). Clean the recorder regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If you have any issues, refer to the user manual or contact TASCAM customer support.
