Tascam DP-008EX Recording Guitars

In this video I discuss the process of recording guitars with the Tascam DP-008EX.

Here's a link to the wireless system used in this video...

So thanks for putting the information about that level knob and the gain at the very beginning. That is so important to understand. I’m getting ready to begin recording some songs on my DPOO8EX and I appreciate your video very much. I’ll probably comment more later if I have any questions. Thanks again for making this video.

Excellent. I am going to test and compare the different options (XLR, wireless, various cable configurations, direct boxes).

Excellent guidance as always, Joe. Haven't had much call to plugging directly in with electrics or electro-acoustics, as I'm using mostly ambient mikes, but good to know. I was thinking about a AKG wireless guitar set up a while ago with a Godin LGX or a Les Paul copy. Good reminder of keeping your cables on the shorter side. I get great reception of a local radio station with my old tube amp!

I have a keyboard connected to my 008ex...via the two 1/4 inch jacks . I cannot use my XLR phantom powered mic if those jacks are plugged in . The 008 will NOT let the mic input work if the two line inputs have jacks in them ...its driving me nuts . Do you have the same issue?

bal cable means matched impedance in both channels, not necessarily 180 out of phase

I'm looking for a recorder that has drums and bass built in so that I can create songs with my guitar using multiple guitar tracks. Do you have a recommendation?

Maybe you could find some guitar players that will actually record on it so we can actually hear the recordings. Everything you talked about, most guitar players learn in the first 6 months of playing . It's strange that the title you have listed reads recording guitars, except you didn't record any guitars.. Some people call it clickbait.
