Voilà un bon enregistreur audio, le son est forcément superbe, numérique, Tascam, etc. Que du sérieux. Je suis un client satisfait qui va s'amuser à chasser les sons dans les forêts (oiseaux etc.) et un peu partout, je bosse dans ce milieu, le son et l'audio-visuel.

Pour le moment, je ne sais l’utiliser qu’avec le son wave produit par défaut, mais je suis déjà frappé par la qualité du son que j’obtiens, tant sur la guitare que sur la voix.
C’est très encourageant pour l’avenir !
