Tascam DR-680 MkII

soundonsound.com

The Tascam DR-680MKII is a robust option for multitrack location recording, offering a wealth of physical controls that minimize menu diving. While not as compact as some, it compensates with ample inputs and outputs, making it ideal for versatile field recording. Users appreciate its improved preamps and straightforward functionality, though it could benefit from better battery efficiency and a cleaner headphone output. While some top-panel controls are awkwardly placed for shoulder use, the overall ease of use and sound quality make it a strong contender for serious location work, especially at its price point.
