  • What audio settings for Tascam dr 07 mkii?

    Posted by Bohdan Zachary on July 10, 2011 at 11:56 pm

    I hope you’ll help.

    Bought a Tascam dr07 mkii for external audio for use with Canon 60D.
    Will be doing interviews this week for a doc and am confused as to the many many audio settings the Tascam offers.

    Should I go WAV or mp3?
    and then what settings.
    I’ll be doing one on ones mostly and then editing on either AVID or Premier Pro at work.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello guys. Seems like you know about this device. I just purchased it couple of days ago, read manual and tried to record my own voice with it. Immediately I ran into problem – the recorded level is too low – I tried increasing “rec level” up to max value, but it’s not enough and I started to pick up lots of noise. When I playing tracks on the device with headphones – it is not bad, but compare to song or audio books played there level is to low. While listening on PC – I can’t even hear my tracks, however radio or movies sounds loud enough. I also tried to plug in audio-technica lav mic ATR3350 – result is almost the same. So, probably it has something to do with dr-07 settings? Maybe it just how things work) Do you usually work with your levels in post?
    Could you help me out with that?
    thank you.
