Of course, NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) just started today and we already have new gear.

Rock’n'Roll Rentals (Austin-based rental company with Film and Live Sound packages and great prices) has been posting some of the new products from TASCAM, including the DR-680, a 4 to 6 channel field recorder that looks real slick and records up to 24-bit/192kHz. The only drawback-a major one-no timecode. Also, they are coming out with a 8 to 10 channel beast, the HS-P82. This is a ridiculous, heavy-duty field recorder with all sorts of functionality including a touch screen, SMPTE, Wordclock, and more. The HS-P82 is definitely on my wish list this year as it is nearly an all-in-one unit for location recording.
