I've had one of these units for about two years, but I always avoid using it because the user manual is so poorly written and hard to follow. This tutorial is awesome -- thank you for doing such a nice job!
I am a church organist, and I have been very impressed with how well the internal mics pick up the sound with so little background noise. This video will be very helpful. Thank you.
the best digital 4 track recorder is Ronald R44. the set up can held 24-192 khz and in 4 channels 24- 96khz. the tascam pd03sd is perfect for recording like cassette and some vinyls.
Thanks so much for this! I was just investigating ways to record my ambient guitar stuff without the use of a pc. I really like the simplicity of this. Thank you!
@@rhcpschipper I export the wave from the Tascam, a stereo wave file, when I play in stereo (with two amps) or mono file and at home I make a master of it.
I have this little guy for maybe over 10 years. It great at reproducing whatever you put into it(good or bad) ha ha. I upgraded after that to the dp_008ex. If someone out there is gonna buy get this one! They are so cheap now and still small with 8 tracks and great quality reverb. For some years now I mainly use the dp_24. I keep my synthesizers, mics, guitar goodies all plugged in which is nice. I just found your video on the styrmon timeline which I recently bought. Nice video and thank you.
Francesco, devo farti le congratulazioni per questo video: chiarissimo, senza fronzoli, con le informazioni fondamentali per iniziare a giocare con quel coso. Probabilmente mi hai convinto a comprarlo. Sono solo un vecchio dilettante, ma credo che mi sarà utile. Stai bene!
THANK YOU! i wasted a bunch of time on a few videos that never did a demo! it sounds good, and i'm thinking of getting one because I'd have to buy too much gear to make a looper that costs the same work. a multitracker WITH MICS makes more sense, and this sounds good enough to play around with unlike a nasty sounding 4 track cassette deck i bought used and regretted in the 90s. hanks for taking time to help us wannabes out.
Thank you so much for this easy to follow tutorial. I have had my Tascam for some time and had completely forgotten how to use it and you refreshed the entire process so easily.
I just picked one up and it was well worth it. I do voiceovers and this recorder is very precise. I’ve had others that were much more and sound worse. Namely Zoom.
I just got Tascam DP-006. Sounds great. I'm sure there's more to learn, but I am keeping it basic right now. Have you heard of Audacity? I use that to mix and master. It's good to have around. Well, I am using both.
Thanks for the upload. One thing no one is saying is how to record to tracks 5 and 6 and how to control their output volume. I only see volume levels for tracks 1-4.
Very good and helpful information for a beginner...Finally got my Tascam to work! Will need to watch this video a few times to understand it all, but at least I got the six tracks to record properly... Thank you so much for your tutorial!
the only con of this little unit is no-phantom power... but it seems great for guitar+voice demos no distractions, no software updates, no lag nor crashing DAWs
It is obvious you spend a lot of time playing guitar -- your fingernails on your right hand are 2mm longer than your left.....that is awesome for picking.... Thanks for the tutorial, brother.
Good and most helpful tutorial! I have this unit stored on the shelf, long enough in no use, but I will use it now...) Thanks a lot for a simple and valuable information! Regards!
I bought this just because it was so cheap, lol. But wow, it's actually very good. I come from 4 track cassette in 1981, then Boss BR multitracks, now DAWs mainly, especially Reaper, which is the one I find the most understandable. I had to delete free Cakewalk, because it was a frustrating, convoluted nightmare, lmao. This I use to mix down tracks and then put the result onto a stereo track in a DAW sometimes, if the CPU is getting all spastic and I'm forced to nix some tracks so my computer will stop bawling and snowflaking. Who knew it was hard for a computer to make sounds...I know, freeze tracks, but there's something about doing that which bothers me rotten; it takes several minutes per track to do that. With good outboard EQs and compressors, this small Tascam would be totally usable for any purpose. It's got very clean sound. I have aimed the mics toward a drumkit, and the recording came out astonishingly good. Those built-in mics are good. Then take the old-school way of running the drumkit track into my DAW via the output from the Tascam into the 2 tracks of my interface. This probably seems abominable to most people, but having come from 4 track cassette, doing stuff like that, and bouncing tracks to make room, are completely 2nd-nature to me, I'm used to it.
Thank you for those kind of detailed explanation! But I have a unresolved question: How can I record/connect my Android tablet, that I use like a sintetizador, to the Tascam recorder? I would be very grateful to hear some helpful tips and advices!
Whats up, dude? Great video. I have a question for you...I'm not very tech savvy. Once you have your tracks down and master your song, is it pretty easy to transfer it to a computer? What format would I need to use if I wanted to put one of my songs on Instagram? Any advice would help. Thanks!!!
I have a Bose mixing Bluetooth speaker, I can put a mic and guitar, they can be eq'd sesperately, it has a line out...my question is "can I use the speaker to double the instruments from 4 to eight into the 4track tascam?
Hi there, thanks for the instructions. They are exactly like the user's manual! However, when I mastered it, it picked up ambient noise from the microphones! Are there more settings I'm missing, how do I just get the 4 tracks mastered and not the background noise!
Appena acquistato e visto il tuo tutorial, grazie mille Frank! Tanta roba. Ne approfitto per chiederti, suggerisci più la modalità mid o high per la registrazione?
Thank You Perry. YOU made this very easy to use. Tascam did not. Have you tried to get a job writing for them? They certainly need someone human rather than a robot. Also, can I use an SM-58 Cardioid mic with it? I like to lay my vocal tracks with an external mic.

Thanks a lot! Glad this video has been useful 🙏
I had the 8 track and i dont remember it having a manual...that was alot of work but its not bad once you get use to it...
Agree there. I'm not a technical person and I have spent hours cleaning up my digital mess.
I know it's 3 yrs old, but can I ask what you use it for?
I am a church organist, and I have been very impressed with how well the internal mics pick up the sound with so little background noise. This video will be very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you very much 🙏
I just picked up the Tascam DP03SD 8 track and couldn't be happier..these tascam recorders are all you need to get some stuff recorded
the best digital 4 track recorder is Ronald R44. the set up can held 24-192 khz and in 4 channels 24- 96khz. the tascam pd03sd is perfect for recording like cassette and some vinyls.
I'm looking at the Tascam recorder, and this is the clearest presentation I have seen. Thank you very much!
Thanks so much for this! I was just investigating ways to record my ambient guitar stuff without the use of a pc. I really like the simplicity of this. Thank you!
It has a very good sound quality, I use it in my outdoor sessions.
@@PerryFrank and you do post processing at home? Or no processing what so ever?
@@rhcpschipper I export the wave from the Tascam, a stereo wave file, when I play in stereo (with two amps) or mono file and at home I make a master of it.
@@rhcpschipper have you managed to do anything youre happy with because I'm thinking the same as you?
Thank you. Instructions more friendly than the TASCAM manual, which appears to have been written by a budget brand robot.
Thank you for your comment 🙏

Great simple and effective. The manual is a tough read
Thank you 🙏
As usual, they have the fault of over-explaining.
Crystal Clear!
🙏🙏🙏
Haven't even finished the tutorial and it's easier than reading the fuckin manual. Thank you for this bro
Thank you very much 🙏🙏🍻
Very nice! No nonsense and straight to the information that's important. Most appreciated.
I'm still using my DP-08 regularly, it's a useful tool & easy to use.
Cool!
Francesco, devo farti le congratulazioni per questo video: chiarissimo, senza fronzoli, con le informazioni fondamentali per iniziare a giocare con quel coso.
Probabilmente mi hai convinto a comprarlo. Sono solo un vecchio dilettante, ma credo che mi sarà utile.
Stai bene!
Grazie infinite Daniele 🙏
Enjoyed your tutorial on a very good way to get into your own ideas of music while learning an awesome little machine. Thanks again.
🙏🙏🙏
Interesting. I grew up with tape recorders so a bit of an analogue brain! Looks simple enough to use without too much complexity. Nice video thnx
I loved the shots of your outside setup ~ and can see how this device makes it a smoother process ~ thanx!
Thank you very much 🙏

What a delighful arrangement!
Thank you very much 🙏
VERY informative video of the Tascam - now I am convinced to buy one. Thanks Perry Frank :)
Thank you 🙏
Thanks friend, I was able to follow your directions and start recording. Much appreciated!!!!
🙏🙏🙏❤
Really appreciate your clear tutorial and kindness. Helped me. Thanks
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for this easy to follow tutorial. I have had my Tascam for some time and had completely forgotten how to use it and you refreshed the entire process so easily.
Thanks so much for the comment!
This is an utterly fantastic tutorial! Perfectly done. I now want to buy this Tascam as soon as I can afford it. Thank you soooo much!
Thank you very much indeed 🙏
I just picked one up and it was well worth it. I do voiceovers and this recorder is very precise. I’ve had others that were much more and sound worse. Namely Zoom.
Thanks for that i bought a second hand one an had no manual , i was almost gonna give up until i saw this well done mate !
Thank you!
Great vid. Tthese things are amazing to have in the great outdoors. :D I wish they would develop an analog tape plugin someday that came in built
Thank you very much 🙏
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I was able to start recording right away after watching it.
Thanks! So glad for it 🙏
Awesome, thank you sir, I have had my DP-006 for a couple of years, but haven't used it for a while....great refresher.
Thank you very much!

Excellent overview Perry.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for the upload. One thing no one is saying is how to record to tracks 5 and 6 and how to control their output volume. I only see volume levels for tracks 1-4.
This is a 4tracks recorder, tracks 5 and 6 don't exist

Right you are, I use an external PP unit from Beringer. Works just fine with even on the road if used with a LiPo battery.
How is latency on it?
you're the best this is a literal godsend
🙏🙏🙏
Great video
Thank you!
Great demo.

Thanks for posting this video. It's a real life-saver, because the DP-006 owner's manual is absolutely useless.
I want one so badly !
It’s got really great quality!!!
🙏🙏🙏
Thank you fro video. I was thinking to get Boss BR80, but now need to think over again
Great, thanks. I'm really thinking I'd like this, I can't going to and from the laptop. It just takes me out of the music.
Excellent video, thank you!
Thank you Mr. Frank.
I have a TASCAM dp 24 very good quality!!!
Love it 💣
Great video! Very clear and interesting, I know what I'm buying myself for Christmas now!
Thanks so much 🙏
Excellent tutorial Thanks!
Thank you 🙏
Wow that was easy to remember thank you!! 😢
Brilliant tutorial thanks 😊
Very helpful video Perry 👍🏽
Thank you 🙏
Thank you for sharing.
🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!
You're welcome
Merci beaucoup 🙏 very clear explanations !!! Fantastic I have to get one !
Thank you 🙏
thanks this was the best explanation
Great video thanks
Thanks for posting this!
Thank you for those kind of detailed explanation!
But I have a unresolved question:
How can I record/connect my Android tablet, that I use like a sintetizador, to the Tascam recorder?
I would be very grateful to hear some helpful tips and advices!
Probably your device has a mini stereo jack output, then I suggest you to use a mini jack/jack stereo cable
Thank you! Just ordered in Amazon mini Jack- 3,35 Jack cable. And cable USB /3,35 Jack for case! 🌻🙏🏼@@PerryFrank
Thank you for this helpful video!
You're welcome, thanks for your comment 🙏
Does it play back sound on the machine itself? How are you hearing it when you play it back?
Nicely done. Thanks.
🙏 Thanks for the comment 🙏
Whats up, dude? Great video. I have a question for you...I'm not very tech savvy. Once you have your tracks down and master your song, is it pretty easy to transfer it to a computer? What format would I need to use if I wanted to put one of my songs on Instagram? Any advice would help. Thanks!!!

I recorded it, but when I went back to listen to it, I couldn’t hear anything
Thanks for this Tutorial.

Thank great information I just have one today.
I have a Bose mixing Bluetooth speaker, I can put a mic and guitar, they can be eq'd sesperately, it has a line out...my question is "can I use the speaker to double the instruments from 4 to eight into the 4track tascam?

Nice! Thank You! ": )
🙏🙏
I recall one of these tascam DPs having reverb built in - is it this one?
Great tutorial, many thanks
great video thx
hey great tutorial. Online it says this thing has 6 tracks?
Thanks a lot, it has 4 tracks, 2 mono and 2 stereo. Probably you refer to the dp008
Great tutorial thanks for sharing
🙏🙏🙏
Appena acquistato e visto il tuo tutorial, grazie mille Frank! Tanta roba. Ne approfitto per chiederti, suggerisci più la modalità mid o high per la registrazione?
Grazie infinite 🙏 io registro sempre in mid a volte in low per evitare problemi di clipping.
Thank you very much. Very nice and useful
Thank you very much 🙏
Gracias campeon, excelente tutorial!!!

Thanks a lot 🙏 No, I've never written to Tascam. Do you think that I should do it?
thank you so much for your help sir! very well.
Great job! Thank you!
Thanks 🙏
Great vid sir. Very helpful
at 3 min, how do you go back from what you recorded to listen to what you did? i cant figure that out and you skipped showing it...
GREAT DEM0 MR PERRY !!
thanks
Thank You!
you look like you’re from the 70’s!
Can you go back and record, for example, a baseline on the unused channel 3, B stereo track?
