Hello Everyone, So far in early testing, I Love this recorder.....definitely much better than the previous PCM-D50 and way better than the Tascam DR 100 MKII. I love the sound of the DSD recording option in fact I think it's a good way to feel a DSLR camera for nice, analog sounding video (even if the signal then gets converted back to compressed format). I tried doing some testing at 192PCM and 2.8DSD and I think I prefer the DSD sound. Hopefully in the next week or so I'll put some samples up for everyone to hear! The build quality is also fantastic!
If this test isn't of any value to you, then please don't bother going to the effort, but I would really love to know how it sounds
playing your 24-bit recordings, via the SPDIF optical output to a DAC and amp of your choice -and- via the analog Line Out to an amp of your choice, using the D100's own DAC.
In other words, how well does it
play what you've recorded (as opposed to removing the microSD card and taking it elsewhere for editing and playback)?
Thank you!
Mike
