Can anyone find out what the gain pot ranges for the new levels are?
How were these being determined? From the display? I haven't tinkered much with this recorder yet, although I did install the update with no issues.
That's a good question - someone posted those ranges a long time ago but I can't remember where. The official Tascam literature doesn't specify the minimum levels of the trim pots; only the maximums: LOW +11 dB, HIGH: +51 dB, HIGH+: +63 dB.
The numbers I copied and pasted into the FAQ are:
Gain Pot Ranges:
LOW: -21dB to +11dB
HIGH: +19dB to +51dB
HIGH+: +52dB to +63dB
I don't know how those minimum numbers were determined. Maybe the person who initially posted this in the discussion thread will chime in with where they found it.
And just in case anyone was wondering, Tascam has not yet posted an updated Specifications page or an updated manual which shows the new MID gain level.
