Matt I love DR-10L! One question I have is how you deal with the auto levels. Do you use them? I think from what you said you do. Auto level seems to work pretty well, but sometimes if the pastor takes pauses in between sentences, the auto level quickly turns up the volume and when he speaks loudly it clips and I almost never am able to use the normal version, and have to rely on the -6db version. I remember from kraig adams that you can change the sensitivity settings via micro sd and some software? But was just curious how you battle these problems and if you have changed the settings on it? Thanks :)
Have you seen the DR-10CS? They're illegal in the States. lol But they Are the Dr-10 for your Sennheiser system! It works like a redundant recorder in case the Sennheiser looses signal.
You are a God for this video! Tascam owes you a BIG BAG because I’m a new wedding filmmaker who just bought two of these from Amazon just because of this video.
My DR-10L has saved multiple wedding videos! When the wireless mic, or handheld mic, or desk feed, fails or spikes ... this little baby just keeps on recording. I now use for all RUclips vlogs on the road, AND all my online courses in my studio.

15 min ago I didn't know what the Tascam Dr-10L is and what it does, now I need one. Thanks ;)
Quite literally yesterday I was running sound on a bigger production, and we had an issue where the client had to go deep inside a building where we legally couldn't follow with cameras. Producers wanted audio from the talent but it was too far for the wireless lavs ---- cue the Tascam DR-10L, yet again saving the day for me and the whole production.
If you slide up to record it will turn on and start recording. That way you don’t have to slide it on then slide it to record :). Love these. Used them on my last 4 weddings ! So good!
I just ordered 4 of them from Amazon with this link. You get 2 that includes Micro SD card 32gb and 2 Tascam TH-02 Headphones for only 349.00. If it wasn't for this video, I wouldn't have bought this. Great video. Great review. Thank you.
Have been using this baby’s since day 1!!! Main source of audio for every wedding!! Honestly we put it on every toaster even if we’re plugged into the DJ system.
I own 3 and have shot several gigs with them. Havent failed me yet. The dual record feature has saved me a few times when people suddenly get loud and the signal clips. Love love love these litte doo dads.
I purchased one and the lav and portability is amazing. I had to purchase one for a groom that wore his dress blues. The lav was sitting basically under his dress blues and yet the audio was still captured beautifully.
I have two of them myself, one black and one white, that way I can camo them in with the bride and groom for my wedding work. Love them! The firmware update is great too so you have the MP3 option if need be as well as expanded dual recording range
Yes this thing has been a spectacular addition for me as well! It punches way above its price range in quality and I've used it on corporate gigs as well as youtube videos and it sounds pretty fantastic -- especially if you choose to upgrade to a different lav for not much more.
Isn't Awesome when NOT one person gives a thumbs down?!? Love this! Great Job. And thank you very very much for ALL you very helpful, concise, thorough tutorials (especially on editing) and gear reviews coming from a user point of view. With the quality videos you put up pon RUclips, you deserve way more subscriptions!
Thanks for the info! I was on the fence about buying it but your video totally convinced me! When you lifted your beard up it blew my mind! lol Just bought it through your B&H link! :)
Matt - you listed every aspect of the DR-10L that I also enjoy. Size, double decibel recording level, power switch, etc. I own two of these, I've used them on every project I've been involved with - and it's the best recorder I have come across. $200 may set some people back - but it shouldn't. This is an amazing value, coupled with that mic it comes with. Totally worth the money!
I have 2 of these units and you're right, they're absolutely incredible! If you think the battery life is good already, try sticking some Panasonic Eneloop Pro AAAs in them, you'll be blown away with the difference. Great video as always Matt! Love your work!
I am glad you enjoy your DR-10L Matt. I wish I didn't have a bad experience with Tascam and my DR-10L. Customer service is no existent for this company, trying to troubleshoot a card read error was impossible (tried 4 micro sd cards error every time) figured it was the port where it goes in, luckily B& H has a wonderful return policy. Probably would have replaced it with another but the poor support from Tascam made me buy the Zoom F1, a bit more bulky, but out of principle needed to switch companies, a recorder failing 2 days before I have a wedding when I went to test it isn't what I like to have occur.
I own one of those and it,s just simply incredible, I know every time that my audio is safe with that little recorder. I will definitely buy another one with your link Matt before my next wedding shoot. Awesome review btw
Right on Matt. I love mine! I agree though... the battery life is much shorter than advertised. I've had mine go off several times in longer sessions. I guess Lithium High Capacity Batteries would do better in long recordings than the Amazon ones you showed in the video.
I bought the black recorder then I saw B&H had a white Tascam for $179 on their deals of the day. I also love The Tascam DR-40 field recorder, it also has dual recording. It has saved my bacon several times when the DJ decides to turn his music up as loud as it will go.
Hey MATT, I alway reference your video for the best settings on the Tascam 10L.. thank you for that. but I lost the last 15 minutes of a very important recording because I didnt know how to shut the recorder off... & Then replay.. I had to take the battery out to stop it & that was stupid and what lost my last 15 minutes of recording. Do you have a video to show start stop record, playback? thank you...
Hi Matt, I just wanted to leave a comment to say hi. This is the first video I have watched of yours and I LOVED IT, so subscribed straight away. I don't do weddings but I'm sure I will still learn heaps from your videos. Looking forward to getting to know you through your content. Cheers Ben
The Dr-10L is amazing! I also have 3 black and 1 white.. however, one of my ports have become wiggly which is annoying. But overall they have never failed me!
Matt WhoisMatt Johnson Yeah.. I read it as a review on Amazon.. Just figured they received a damaged one.. Who knows.. maybe it got damaged in someones pocket. I'm going to try and send it to Tascam to be repaired. Just be aware I guess lol!
Matt upping his lighting game🔥🔥 This recorder has changed my life...well maybe not . Lol but it is such a beast of a unit! Makes things so much less stressful 👌🏻
I do gardening videos for RUclips and use an old camera (Canon XF100). I've always had a wireless lav mic with a receiver plugged into the camera and never had to sync a separate audio file. I did see your video about doing that in Premiere, but do you also need a regular mic plugged into the camera for proper syncing? Or do you record the video without sound and then use the DR10L for the audio only? I just ordered one of these to replace my Comica wireless receiver/mic, but now sure how to best do this.
Just an fyi for people purchasing and Matt. If you go to tascams homepage you can download new firmware that provides more features like -12db safety track and mp3 recording. It's a bit odd to install but worth it for some :) Great little device and great video :)
We were considering this device at work for interview stuff. I like the concept of the device and I like the format as well as the price. However: My main concern was the lack of real time monitoring capabilities. We eventually went for a couple of Sennheiser EW100 wireless systems where I can strap the receivers to my camera cage and run the audio into either a Tascam DR60 II or into a Zoom H1n. As for wiring up the bride: I would probably try to hide the mic in her hair....with a shoulderless dress as seen on your video that seems like the only place you can put it if you want to keep it hidden from view. But the recorder itself - phew. Tough one. I guess the bride would come down on you like a ton of bricks if you mess with her hair if you need to change the battery at some point. 🤔 Maybe if you run the mic cable down the back of the neck somehow into some fold of the dress where you can clip the recorder...? I am looking forward to the video where you show that.
Thanks Matt. Great video. Where was the fire? I can't even think as fast as you talk. You have a new subscriber. I have also added you to my playlists.

😁 Hey! This is the best deal I've found for the Tascam DR-10L! Comes with a free SD card and headphones: geni.us/dr10
Matt I love DR-10L! One question I have is how you deal with the auto levels. Do you use them? I think from what you said you do. Auto level seems to work pretty well, but sometimes if the pastor takes pauses in between sentences, the auto level quickly turns up the volume and when he speaks loudly it clips and I almost never am able to use the normal version, and have to rely on the -6db version.

I've been using one for the past year and a half. I use it more than my RodeLink lav now.
what are your thoughts on the Rode Smartlav+?
Have you seen the DR-10CS? They're illegal in the States. lol But they Are the Dr-10 for your Sennheiser system! It works like a redundant recorder in case the Sennheiser looses signal.
Yeah I'm sold. I have the F1 and H1n and in the real world... they are so HUGE and SUPER clunky and difficult to hide. Thanks! Buying 2!!
1. Forget weddings, a recorder like this can be used by EVERYONE!
2. Love that beam of light in the background. Such atmosphere!
The Enthusiasm Project I like “1.” Lol
You are a God for this video! Tascam owes you a BIG BAG because I’m a new wedding filmmaker who just bought two of these from Amazon just because of this video.
Glad to help!
This was an incredibly concise review, great job man!
Thanks dude! 😁
I bought one and can't believe how good it works?! Turn it on, have it set to auto - DONE.
Something that just works? I can scarcely believe it
4:55 That was a better twist than Fight Club.
My DR-10L has saved multiple wedding videos! When the wireless mic, or handheld mic, or desk feed, fails or spikes ... this little baby just keeps on recording. I now use for all RUclips vlogs on the road, AND all my online courses in my studio.
15 min ago I didn't know what the Tascam Dr-10L is and what it does, now I need one. Thanks ;)
I bought 4 of these and they work like a champ! Small, clips which is really great for ladies and their dresses! You will not be disappointed!
Quite literally yesterday I was running sound on a bigger production, and we had an issue where the client had to go deep inside a building where we legally couldn't follow with cameras.

If you couldn't legally take a camera In, then likely you couldn't legally record audio either
MAAGIC!!
Guerilla filmmaking, right? =P
Nice. That’s pretty awesome.
@@SoundSpeeding It's not always what you can legally do, it's what you can get away with doing.
Bro!! For real I bought two of these after your recommendation. They’re insanely awesome!
I don't think there's been a better review of a product anywhere, this awnsered literally all of my questions about it, thank you!
If you slide up to record it will turn on and start recording. That way you don’t have to slide it on then slide it to record :).
Love these. Used them on my last 4 weddings ! So good!

My mouth dropped when you picked up your beard and realized it was with this mic. SOLD. Excellent video.
Have been using this baby’s since day 1!!! Main source of audio for every wedding!! Honestly we put it on every toaster even if we’re plugged into the DJ system.
I had a vision of you plugging this into an actual toaster for bread at a wedding.
Matt WhoisMatt Johnson This is exactly what we meant! What do you think we meant?? Need to eat during the wedding day, hence toast 😁
Yes they're great! I have 3, two black and one white that I put on the bride. Works Fantastic!!!
Way awesome Matt. It's my go to also. Cheers!
Matt. Your video was fun to watch yet provided all the information I needed. I enjoyed it.
I own 3 and have shot several gigs with them. Havent failed me yet. The dual record feature has saved me a few times when people suddenly get loud and the signal clips. Love love love these litte doo dads.
Love this tiny micro powerhouse! Our favorite recorder for sure!
I remember watching your review last year! Been meaning to make one of my own, just took forever hahaha
I purchased one and the lav and portability is amazing. I had to purchase one for a groom that wore his dress blues. The lav was sitting basically under his dress blues and yet the audio was still captured beautifully.
I have two of them myself, one black and one white, that way I can camo them in with the bride and groom for my wedding work. Love them! The firmware update is great too so you have the MP3 option if need be as well as expanded dual recording range
I have the same dr10l and god I love them! Auto leveling is life saving!
Crushed it again, Matt! You continue to bring very high value to the community!! Cheers!
Thanks Mark!
Wow, that screw-in jack is a great idea. I always have that issue of plugs coming out all the time with my Zoom H1...
Good review. Pretty informative.
Should use a angled jack
Yes this thing has been a spectacular addition for me as well! It punches way above its price range in quality and I've used it on corporate gigs as well as youtube videos and it sounds pretty fantastic -- especially if you choose to upgrade to a different lav for not much more.
just used this on a shoot...I was blown away!
Isn't Awesome when NOT one person gives a thumbs down?!? Love this! Great Job. And thank you very very much for ALL you very helpful, concise, thorough tutorials (especially on editing) and gear reviews coming from a user point of view.

Ordering this ASAP. Please make the settings video soon so I can be prepared for the next wedding I shoot in 2 weeks. Thanks =)
Thanks for the info! I was on the fence about buying it but your video totally convinced me! When you lifted your beard up it blew my mind! lol Just bought it through your B&H link! :)
I heard about these and bought one straight away - such an awesome and extremely handy piece of kit!
Literally just bought two of these!!! Didn't even know how good these were! Thanks for the review!
That's cool you didn't buy them figuratively.
ruclips.net/video/9jh4Mpgbi4A/видео.html
Just got the dr-10x for a handheld mic...have to agree...best recorder ever!
Yessss. Always look forward to your videos! Been waiting and totally worth the wait. Thanks Matt!
Thanks so much Ian!
I now own 5 of them.... It is amazing for weddings!
Thanks your review just sold me on buying this :) Used your link to ! Great videos from a fellow youtuber.
WHO THE HELL DISLIKED THIS? These mics and Matt are WAY amazing!!
Your videos are always a gold mine of knowledge! Thanks for sharing your techniques so openly!
Hey Matt, thanks for this! Just placed my order. Appreciate your friendly expertise as always!
Finally! A good review... same day it showed up to my office but regardless I feel more confident about my purchase now.
Matt - you listed every aspect of the DR-10L that I also enjoy. Size, double decibel recording level, power switch, etc. I own two of these, I've used them on every project I've been involved with - and it's the best recorder I have come across. $200 may set some people back - but it shouldn't.

Totally worth the money!
OMGosh. This is great. Ordering right now! Matt you’re the best!
Backup track! What a great feature. That alone makes me want one..... or more.
Dude you are so happy, you make me happy!
I have 2 of these units and you're right, they're absolutely incredible! If you think the battery life is good already, try sticking some Panasonic Eneloop Pro AAAs in them, you'll be blown away with the difference. Great video as always Matt! Love your work!
I may switch over to those! :)
Best review for lav mic across youtube hands down
The light of enlightenment over your head.
I am glad you enjoy your DR-10L Matt. I wish I didn't have a bad experience with Tascam and my DR-10L. Customer service is no existent for this company, trying to troubleshoot a card read error was impossible (tried 4 micro sd cards error every time) figured it was the port where it goes in, luckily B& H has a wonderful return policy.

I use two to film weddings and they have been fantastic for me. Looking to buy a white one soon for the bride mic. Cheers.
Tascam is an amazing company!
Hey, Matt! You should make a tutorial about mic-ing the bride. Looking forward to it!
just ordered 3 of these on your recommendation! so excited for quality sound :-)
I have two because of you but could have used his video Months ago! Thank you for this video!
Haha you need more! 😜
I own one of those and it,s just simply incredible, I know every time that my audio is safe with that little recorder. I will definitely buy another one with your link Matt before my next wedding shoot. Awesome review btw
Thanks Hubert!
It's really good to hear you Matt 😉
your beard lift sold me on your channel, you'll do anything to make great content!
Matt Johnson, do you still use this 4 years later? If not what do you use now?
Awesome video! So glad I found you on here! no seriously, what great information you share and its so informative and well done. Thank you so much!
Right on Matt. I love mine! I agree though... the battery life is much shorter than advertised. I've had mine go off several times in longer sessions. I guess Lithium High Capacity Batteries would do better in long recordings than the Amazon ones you showed in the video.
I like the look of the sony tx650 as well - good to have so many choices theses days.
You are the best seller on RUclips ! :)
I love my Dr-10 I use it for every wedding.
I bought one cos of you Matt! saving up for the other 3! waiting anxiously for the video on how to mic the bride! kudos bro!
I used mine to record audio from the DJ using an XLR cord last week at a wedding speech and all
Love mine! 1 black, 1 white. Looking forward to the next videos!
There's a lot of low end which is nice, I find it better to cut out low end rather trying to put it back in.
so awesome, thanks for sharing this Matt!
I bought the black recorder then I saw B&H had a white Tascam for $179 on their deals of the day. I also love The Tascam DR-40 field recorder, it also has dual recording. It has saved my bacon several times when the DJ decides to turn his music up as loud as it will go.

Great review! Keep up the quality. I've had my eyes on these for awhile, definitely seem worth the price.
Hi Matt, I just wanted to leave a comment to say hi.
This is the first video I have watched of yours and I LOVED IT, so subscribed straight away.
I don't do weddings but I'm sure I will still learn heaps from your videos.
Looking forward to getting to know you through your content.
Cheers Ben
Great review, just added this to the Amazon list 😁
Haha I already own one cause of you Matt! So far love it!
Me too ;)
Me too :)
The Dr-10L is amazing! I also have 3 black and 1 white.. however, one of my ports have become wiggly which is annoying. But overall they have never failed me!
Oh no! I haven’t heard about wiggly ports 😱
Matt WhoisMatt Johnson Yeah.. I read it as a review on Amazon.. Just figured they received a damaged one.. Who knows.. maybe it got damaged in someones pocket. I'm going to try and send it to Tascam to be repaired. Just be aware I guess lol!
I wonder if you could use the headphones output as a linout to a wireless transmitter to capture/monitor in camera as well for redundancy's sake...
Incredible video, and it sounds like an incredible mic! This video sold me on your channel. Subscribed!
Great review! Thanks for making this.
The back up track is in almost every mid to high end tascam recorder. Interesting review.
Matt upping his lighting game🔥🔥
This recorder has changed my life...well maybe not . Lol but it is such a beast of a unit! Makes things so much less stressful 👌🏻
Hahaha thanks!!
Just about to do my first wedding do Recommend any foam wind cover seem to make stretching louder
Amazing video from the amazing Matt!
It definitely works for me! Thanks Matt.
This thing looks sweet! And dude if it captures that good of audio through your beard thats legendary lol
So are we all going to just ignore how Matt's beard doubles as an extra windscreen?
😂😂
On point! 😂
Can't wait for that video on how to mic the bride! Haha! Thanks again, Matt!
Thanks dude! :D
Getting some of these! Great video Matt!!

It's a bit odd to install but worth it for some :)
Great little device and great video :)
Does Tascam require you to 'register', ie, the 'ol hold features back so they can data mine you later scam ?
I didn´t have to register. It was just a page on their homepage with a download link :)
These are amazing recorders, I also use four as you describe.
We were considering this device at work for interview stuff. I like the concept of the device and I like the format as well as the price.
However: My main concern was the lack of real time monitoring capabilities. We eventually went for a couple of Sennheiser EW100 wireless systems where I can strap the receivers to my camera cage and run the audio into either a Tascam DR60 II or into a Zoom H1n.

Haha not the hair!!! Video coming soon-ish. :)
Alright. NOW I am curious. 😊👍🏻
Mine just came in the mail becuase of this review and it's awesome!
Such a great review, this is an awesome channel. Would love to see your review or the new Intamics!
Definitely considering reviewing those too! I have 2 :)
Agreed that mic has peaked my interest
Got one on Ebay for only 50€! Couldn't believe my luck. Really awesome recorder indeed!
Impressive. Always so clear as your sound. Lol. Thank you!
This is a cool mic. I actually used this a few times with my clients.
Thanks Matt. Great video. Where was the fire? I can't even think as fast as you talk. You have a new subscriber. I have also added you to my playlists.
Very insightful review, thank you! Totally going off to buy this immediately!
So stoked to order this!! Does anyone know if this is also good to use as a drape mic over a speaker??
I have two of these absolutely love them.
