Any of you guys use this over the H4N? I'm not looking to mount my cam on it. Just keep it nearby when I have Wireless or boom hooked up. I'd prefer in camera capture but can't afford GH4 with adapter just yet.

Manu4Vendetta I love the DR60. I started with the H4n and found that the Tascam 100 was better in terms of, well, almost everything, from interface to preamp. Then I got the D60, and it's much better than the Tascam 100. There is, with the DR60, a digital span in the pots that some people stress over. I never really notice it because I don't ride the pots too much. It's a fantastic unit, although the irony is that I personally have never got it to mate that well with dlsr's and m43's and that's specifically what it was engineered to do. Whatever, I just like it for it's bang for the buck performance. There are some high end audio guys here that might not like it because they're accustomed to SD and various high end audio gear. But I'd wager even they'd admit it presents great value.

I dont know if buy or not. :(

Here are the best review I've seen of the DR-60d

I am using DR-60D since its release over a year ago, great stuff! Paid about 600USD but for for mere 200USD today - it is a steal! And PluralEyes for free!

Interesting, now Tascam has announced a DR-70D. I can find a price quote yet, but this looks a little more feature rich than the DR-60D. http://www.tascam.eu/en/dr-70d.html

Have one, and it EATS BATTERIES all day long.

Has anybody here tried powering it with a USB power pack? I'm considering powering it with this: http://www.banggood.com/Original-XIAOMI-5_1V-2_1A-10000mAh-Power-Bank-For-Smartphone-p-977406.html

I power my Tascam 60D using this: Anker PowerCore 20100mAh Externer Akku

It works all day, and still has power left over.

One thing I can't figure out w/ the DR-60D. Is there a way to record 4 independent channels at the same time, as opposed to 2 sets of stereo channels (1-2, 3-4)?

@LiquidAlpinist No, it doesn't have that option when I select 4-track audio record

@fotosiamo Just a shot in the dark here, but have you tried plugging in all your mics to the DR-60D. Some electronics menus only activate options in menu when things are plugged in. Also, I'd try emailing Tascam for advice.
