The Tascam DR-40X is a compact and portable four-channel audio recorder with built-in XY/AB stereo microphones. In this video, I go through the main features I think makes this recorder stand out from its competitors, the preamplifier noise and provide a relatively inexpensive way to improve it, dynamic range, the audio quality of the built-in mics and how to connect 3.5mm microphones.

I uncover some potentially problematic issues that you should be aware of in order in order to get the best audio recording out of this portable sound recorder. I also took it to the streets and tested the XY/AB stereo mics under real-life situations to see how they perform recording audio in stereo. I test whether they pick up interferences just as the DR07X did in my previous review (https://youtu.be/Mvcp_B0kv8A). The results will give you a clear overall view of its strong and weak points and whether it is a recorder that will fit your recording requirements or you should move on to alternative audio recorders.
