TASCAMs top-of-the-line Handheld Digital Recorder, the DR-100mkIII boasts a signal-to-noise ratio exceeding 100dB, delivering the best audio performance in the history of TASCAM portable stereo recorders. Designed to meet the needs of the most demanding audio designers and engineers, this new model combines robust reliability, an updated user interface and studio quality sonic performance to deliver a truly breath-taking audio experience. The DR-100mkIII uses two independent AK4558 ADC converters. By eliminating interference between left and right channels, signal-to-noise ratio is maximized and audio fidelity is improved. In addition, each of those AD converters can work in a Dual ADC mode. The two AD converters work in tandem then combine their results for a 109dB S/N ratio, beating the (already excellent) 102dB S/N ratio achieved when recording in standard mode. Note: As the S/N ratio when recording exceeds the S/N ratio of the entire circuit, data recorded in dual mono ADC mode will be limited to a 102dB S/N ratio when played back on the DR-100mkIII. This does not affect the S/N ratio of the actual file, which is maintained at 109dB S/N Recording Media SD card(64MB to 2GB), SDHC card(4GB to 32GB), SDXC card(48GB to 128GB) File System FAT16/32 File Format WAV, MP3 Recording/Playback Format WAV 44.1 / 48 / 88.2 / 96 / 176.4 / 192 kHz, 16/24-bit Quantization bit rate 16bit / 24bit MP3 Sampling frequency 44.1k / 48kHz Recording bit rate 128k / 192k / 256k / 320k bps Number of Channels 2 channels(stereo) Analog Inputs MIC/LINE IN Phantom Power Compatible Connecter XLR-3-31 (1 : GND, 2 : HOT, 3 : COLD) MIC Source is set to MIC Input Impendence 2k ohms Minimum Input Level -70.5dBu (Pad off) Maximum Input Level +2dBu (Pad on) LINE Source is set to LINE Input Impendence 20k ohms Nominal Input Level +4dBu Maximum Input Level +24dBu EXT IN Connector 3.5mm(1/8′) Stereo mini jack MIC Source is set to EXT MIC Input Impendence 50k ohms Minimum Input Level -62.8dBu (Pad off) Maximum Input Level -2.8dBu (Pad on) LINE Source is set to EXT LINE Input Impendence 2k ohms Nominal Input Level -10dBv Maximum Input Level +6dBv DIGITAL IN Connector 2.5mm TRS jack (phono adapter included) Format S/PDIF (IEC60958-3) Analog Output LINE OUT Connector 3.5mm(1/8′) Stereo mini jack Output Impendence 200 ohms Nominal Output Level -14dBV Maximum Output Level +6dBV PHONES Connector 3.5mm(1/8′) Stereo mini jack Maximum Output Better than 40mW+40mW (32ohms loaded) USB Connector micro-B type Format USB 2.0 HIGH SPEED mass storage class REMOTE Connector 2.5mm(3/32′) TRS jack Format TASCAM RC-10 / RC-3F Built-in Speaker 0.4W (mono) Power Supply Built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery (14.2Wh), 2 AA batteries, USB buss power, AC Adapter (TASCAM PS-P520E, sold separately), Exclusive external battery pack (BP-6AA, sold separately) Power Consumption 7.5W(MAX) Battery operation time (Recording) (Recording WAV, 44.1kHz, 16 bit) Built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery Built-in mics (UNI) Approx. 12 hours Mic In with +48V on Approx. 6 hours Alkaline batteries (EVOLTA) Built-in mics (UNI) Approx. 2 hours Mic In with +48V on Approx. 1 hour Ni-MH batteries (envelop) Built-in mics (UNI) Approx. 3 hours, 30 minutes Mic In with +48V on Approx. 2 hours, 15 minutes Lithium-ion batteries (Energizer ULTIMATE LITHIUM) Built-in mics (UNI) Approx. 7 hours Mic In with +48V on Approx. 3 hours Dimensions 3.15(W)6.13(H)1.38(D) inch 80(W)155.7(H)35(D) mm Weight (without AA batteries) 0.83lb 375g Weight (with AA batteries) 0.94lb 425g Operating Temperature 32 to 104F (0C to 40C) Included Accessories Digital input conversion cable Audio Performance Frequency response 20 to 20kHz +0.5/-1dB (EXT IN to LINE OUT, Fs 44.1/48kHz, JEITA) 20 to 40kHz +0.5/-2dB (EXT IN to LINE OUT, Fs 88.2/96kHz, JEITA) 20 to 80kHz +0.5/-4dB (EXT IN to LINE OUT, Fs 176.4/192kHz, JEITA) Distortion 0.007% or less (Fs 44.1/48/88.2/96/176.4/192kHz, JEITA) S/N Ratio 102dB or more (Fs 44.1/48/88.2/96/176.4/192kHz, JEITA)
