I think people struggle with the idea of expensive, well made, built to last, fun to interactive gear. They say get a zoom, and they’ll also own loads of other gear, for audio and video and photography and god knows what else. And to them you have it all but spend less on each thing. But it used to all be built like this and cost this much, and you specialised and probably didn’t try to have something of everything.
These designs (specifically - was silver before, but this includes the formfactor now) remind me of Nagra devices. And with them, it is more reminiscent of the 70‘s and 80‘s!-)
I've been checking their site regularly since it was added to the TE shop and I haven't seen it in stock once yet I see content creators and reviewers use it. What's the deal? parts shortage? software issues?
Might be the wrong place here, but a questions come to my -only sometimes mobile- mind: is the power input (type-c) a power bypass ? It would be horrible if a permanent connection would overcharge it constantly (and lead to long-term damage even if not much used).
It's definitely an expensive setup. A far cheaper alternative would be a Zoom H6 and Tula mic, but that's a bit larger and I don't think there's anything else that accomplishes exactly what the TP-7 & TE field series does at the size it is. It's not in this video but IMO the TX-6 is actually a really unique little device and is probably worth the price for certain people.
@@matt-lang agree here, I moved my portable setup to TE from using the H6 and the workflow between the TX-6 and the TP-7 is extremely fluid. They've certainly turned music production into an efficient and welcomed tactile/DAWless experience with the only downside being a lack of preamps (soundprofessionals have a few batt powered stereo 3.5 jack preamps that solves this). Granted, if you own a space to setup some gear then by all means you could purchase a decent desk/interface/preamps/microphones/cables/controllers and even have enough for a workable laptop at the end, but I work with artists in their designated spaces and feel more engaged with their music this way. It's currently the most portable high quality studio setup I've seen (Critter and Guitari might be catching up though - check out their equivalents)
128 gigs, That’s depressing. With what this is supposed to be, it should have a ridiculous amount of storage for an audio recorder. Like 512GB at least, 2TB would be better.

If you're looking for a small, portable, battery powered recorder, get a Zoom, if you have too much money, get this.

Agreed!!
Sounds dumb, but I have a Laywer friend. Lawyers and legal people record voice all the time. A great (very expensive) gift
Wow you're so cool bro.

Parts shortage. Saw someone from TE mention it very recently in a video about the TP-7
Thanks for replying. I hope they get it resolved soon@@rorz999
astonishingly beautiful and impressive
I Like all their stuff, but… man the $ is impossible for me. Still… it’s very Cool stuff for those who can afford it all!

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a recording studio?
define recording studio
A studio where recording takes place.@@ObscuraHailOfficial

I know you’re joking but for those who are curious how much this setup would cost it’s ~$2,700
Looks great! Looove the scrub through
Too bad the transcription doesn't split speakers
That's coming in an update ;)
Wow that'd be wicked thanks. When it shows up, and if it works 95% of the time, imma get me one!!!
