Its onboard unidirectional condenser mics can be set in an A-B position for a spacious stereo effect or in an X-Y position for a tight stereo image with minimal phase differences.

Equally adept as a handheld device or in stand- or camera-mounted setups, the DR-07X can handle anything from sampling sessions and recitals to interviews and podcasts. Flexible powering methods—batteries, USB bus power, or an AC adapter—make the DR-07X well suited for on-the-go recording, all-day video shoots, and computer-based audio production. Need to patch in a lavalier mic or an outboard mixer? The DR-07X's 3.5mm mini-jack input accommodates mic- or line-level signals, and can supply plug-in power if needed.

Whether you use the built-in mics or an external source, selectable modes such as peak reduction, limiting, and auto-level give you options for achieving clean, undistorted recordings. Onboard Adjustable Unidirectional Microphones The DR-07X's onboard condenser microphones empower you with stereo capture for sources producing sound pressure levels up to 125 dB, so loud concerts won't be a problem. Whereas the DR-05X has omnidirectional mics in a fixed A-B setup, the DR-07X features adjustable unidirectional mics.

The unidirectional mics minimize the pickup of sound entering from the rear of the capsules, resulting in a more focused tone with fewer reflections.Easily pivot the capsules between two mic configurations to complement your sound source—use the A-B position (capsules facing outward) to produce a wide stereo image, or switch to the X-Y position (capsules facing inward) if you need a tighter stereo field with a strong center presence and fewer phase differences.
