TASCAM DR-40XP 4-Channel 32-Bit-Float Portable Field Recorder

Precision Audio, Absolute Headroom

The TASCAM DR-40XP is a professional 4-channel portable field recorder and USB-C audio interface for creators demanding studio-quality audio in the field. Perfect for location sound, live rehearsals, or on-the-move podcasting, this compact unit delivers world-class performance with versatile inputs and robust construction.

Infinite Headroom with 32-Bit Float
32-bit float recording eliminates clipping in high-stakes environments. Capture audio with virtually unlimited headroom - sudden peaks from live performances or unpredictable field sounds are easily recovered in post-production, giving you the security and transparency needed when there's no second take.

Ultra-Low Noise HDDA Preamplification
Tascam's proprietary HDDA preamps deliver exceptionally low noise at –126 dBu, ensuring pristine, detailed recordings even with demanding microphones. Your source remains clean and hiss-free, letting natural character shine through.

Versatile Capture with Adjustable Microphones
RF-resistant stereo condenser mics switch between X-Y (tight, focused) and A-B (wide, immersive) modes, handling up to 125 dB SPL. Enhanced shielding blocks mobile device interference for clean, high-fidelity capture in any environment.
