According to our audio recorder expert
The Tascam DR-40 V2 lets you make high-quality audio recordings wherever you are. Connect a condenser microphone to 1 of the 2 XLR inputs with 48V phantom power to record audio with your favorite studio microphones. If you don't have a studio microphone with you, you can use the integrated X/Y condenser microphones. Thanks to the way the X/Y microphones are positioned, you can create great-sounding stereo audio. You can use the integrated speakers to listen to your recordings.

Great, convenient and not big! Too bad that no bag is included to prevent damage.

Nice range of connection options and functions on the device. Please note that no cover is included. Use a pencil case for the time being, but it's not ideal.

The Tascam DR-40 V2 is mainly used by me in combination with an SLR camera for making video recordings. With the built-in stereo microphone, but also with an external directional microphone. The signal-to-noise ratio is very good. The built-in stereo microphone picks up all the details. That's a small downside, because clicking the control buttons is also picked up flawlessly. Of course, you won't have that problem with an external microphone. Every breath of wind is also audible. Even when moving the recorder back and forth, you can hear the air movement. I recommend placing a windscreen on the microphone when recording outdoors. Recording on 4 tracks is particularly useful. You can then use a peak limiter on the second stereo track, so that you have a backup track on which no distortion occurs, should unexpected sound peaks occur.
