Tascam is announcing release of the DR-10L, an ultra-compact recorder with lavalier microphone, designed to deliver Tascam's audio quality in a tiny, easily concealed package designed to eliminate the uncertainties of wireless microphone systems.
Featuring a professional-quality lavalier microphone and ultra-compact body pack, the DR-10L captures 48kHz/24-bit Broadcast WAV files to tiny microSD or microSDHC cards, powering for up to ten hours of recording on a single AAA battery.
Like its siblings, the DR-10X plug-on ENG recorder and the DR-10SG shotgun mic recorder, the DR-10L's professional features include a built-in limiter to prevent distortion, low-cut filter to reduce wind and rumble noise, and a bright OLED display readable in direct sunlight. And Tascam's dual recording mode captures a lower level safety track to safeguard against unexpected source level spikes.
For wedding and event videographers, the DR-10L is portable enough to put systems on the bride, groom, priest, and anyone else. For interviews and documentaries, it's small enough to also use in tandem with a traditional RF system.
The DR-10L is expected to ship in late October and will be available for pre-order soon through Tascam professional dealers, with a street price of $199.99.
