  I recently replaced my Philips DVT7500 that abruptly died with a Tascam DR-05X Linear PCM Recorder which I had been wanting to purchase and now had the perfect reason. This is my first out of the box recording in my backyard in the mid evening. In this capture you’ll hear bird song, a distant train whistle, neighborhood dogs, motorcycles and more. The DR-05X has […]
