Flawless, High-resolution Sound Anytime, Anywhere

Studio sessions, live gigs, field interviews — the Sony PCM-D10 does it all. This portable audio recorder boasts state-of-the-art, 24-bit/192kHz AD/DA for maximum sound quality. Flexible internal microphones enable three different recording configurations, or you can use your favorite pair of external mics via the PCM-D10’s XLR/TRS combo jacks. Independent dials for left and right channels give you total control of your input levels, while a High S/N mode and an onboard Digital Limiter safeguard against any surprise volume changes. What’s more, you can monitor your levels right from your smartphone. Enjoy pitch-perfect playback, thanks to a high-quality analog headphone amplifier, or listen on your favorite wireless speaker system via Bluetooth. The Sony PCM-D10 offers flawless, high-resolution sound anytime, anywhere.

3-way adjustable internal microphones

The PCM-D10 is ready to record anytime, with zero set up. Its 3-way adjustable internal microphones yield super-low noise, along with an expansive frequency range, ensuring that you’re always ready to capture the moment with stunning quality. Benefit from three different recording configurations: XY for music performances, zoom for interviews and discussions, and wide stereo for open and outdoor spaces. No matter what you’re trying to capture, with the PCM-D10 you’ll never miss the moment.

Cables not included.

Flexible connectivity for mics, mixers, and more

The Sony PCM-D10 accommodates all your favorite outboard gear, making it a fine choice for pro-quality 2-channel recording. Its twin XLR/TRS combo jacks enable you to connect everything from mics to mixers to keyboards. You can select mic or line level independently for each jack, in addition to 48V phantom power. And you don’t need to worry about cables coming loose — each jack boasts a push-lock connector that keeps them locked in place.

Capture high-quality audio in any conditions

The PCM-D10’s dual AD/DA converters capture flawless sound in 24-bit/192kHz quality, that you can dial to perfection with independent levels for your left and right channels. And if things become unpredictable, don’t fret. The PCM-D10’s High S/N mode enables each ADC to record at a different gain level, so when very low signals are present, the device automatically switches to the lower gain ADC, allowing its low noise floor to capture the quiet sounds with maximum fidelity. Unexpected loud sources are handled with equal aplomb, thanks to an onboard Digital Limiter. At Sweetwater, we’re impressed by how easy it is to produce a quality recording with the PCM-D10.

Circuit for digital limiter.

Great Device

I've had this thing for two months now and it works great. I've been able to figure out everything on it overtime without referring to a manual. I would buy again
Rated 5/5

Good Recorder

Sounds good, works well, better than the zoom. Records Hi Freq nicely, but its larger than you think.

Sweetwater is great, and so is Ben

Thnks

The D10 is great, and Bryant once again followed up on the delivery, making sure everything went well.
Thanks to Sweetwater for another great transaction.
Rated 5/5

Radio Voice Italia studio/field test

A very strong performer overall. We are using the recorder primarily with line level inputs. Limiter works well for us with a fast release rate. The only disappointing feature is very low headset volume. Virtually ineffective in a noisy environment. Great build quality and fingerprint proof casing.
Wish Sony would bring out another titanium recorder though may not be cost effective.

Rated 4.5/5

As expected

Not only is this unit reliable and easy to use, but so is the sweetwater platform. My new go to when ordering equipment.
The Sony PCMD100 has the D10 beat in field recording but for the price it is worth every penny! Thanks guys
