All-new Launcher System

The 2.4-inch touchscreen Portacapture X6 and System Launcher make it easier than ever to configure application-specific settings. Instead of trying to remember your podcast settings, simply tap the podcasting icon and the unit will automatically recall your podcast settings. The Launcher system isn't just limited to podcasts either. You'll find apps for multitrack recording, podcasts, interviews, ASMR, music recording, and field recording. With its accessible app-like operation, Portacapture X6 dramatically reduces setup time so you can focus on what matters: capturing crystal-clear audio.

Versatile I/O Interface

Connectivity is the name of the game when it comes to portable recording. Despite its compact size, the TASCAM Portacapture X6 has more than enough I/O options for a wide variety of projects. In addition to the two built-in microphones, the Portacapture X6 features two XLR inputs complete with TASCAM-designed HDDA mic pres. In addition to analog inputs, the Portacapture X6 also functions as a USB audio interface so you can record directly into your DAW. Abundant connectivity allows the Portacapture X6 to record up to 6 tracks simultaneously (4 tracks and 2 stereo mixes). Whether you're recording a ska horn section, on-location audio, or your groundbreaking podcast episode, the Portacapture X6 will capture it with ease.

Built-in effects suite for polished recordings

TASCAM knows how important your sound is. That's why the company's design team loaded a selection of powerful effects tools directly into Portacapture X6. You can take advantage of the compressor and limiter to increase performance and keep spikes under control. The high-pass filter helps prevent low-pitched noise that can harm an outlet. Other useful controls include an EQ and reverb to enhance your sound and add a slice of ambiance. When you're done recording, add a touch of reverb and you're done!
