32-bit Float Recording for Fast Setup and Worry-free Recording
The DR-10L Pro’s default 32-bit float recording mode employs dual ADCs to capture sounds across a huge dynamic range without distorting or introducing excessive noise — that means videographers can avoid having to scrap audio due to poor levels. With 32-bit float recording, there’s no need to adjust input gain levels, allowing you to set up faster and with total confidence that you’ll capture great audio in any setting. The included TM-10L microphone captures clear, detailed audio while handling loud sound pressure levels without distorting, making it the perfect lav mic for the DR-10L Pro’s 32-bit float recording mode.

AAA Batteries Power Long Shooting Sessions
Whether you’re capturing audio from people at a wedding reception, a busy trade convention, or a lengthy ceremony, the DR-10L Pro is ready to keep recording as long as you are. Just two AAA batteries can power the DR-10L Pro personal recorder for up to 24.5 hours*, minimizing concerns over battery changes during the shoot. In addition, files are saved approximately every 20 seconds during recording, so data loss due to unexpected power supply interruptions are kept to a minimum.
