PCM-D10

Look beneath the case of the PCM-D10 and you'll find a circuit board engineered to give you the highest sound quality. The analog and digital circuits are totally separated on the board, reducing interference and boosting signal-to-noise. We've also positioned the amp blocks close to the inputs for the clearest possible transmission.

Whether you're monitoring live or reliving the performance, you'll enjoy clear, detailed audio and high output power from the PCM-D10's high-quality MAX9723 analog headphone amp. This also features an integrated analog volume controller for smooth adjustment.

With high S/N mode, you can stop worrying about lost low levels. The PCM-D10’s two ADCs record at different volumes—one regular and one lower—and if any low levels are lost, the device automatically replaces these sections with audio captured at -12 dB. The result? Clear recordings for even the most dynamic performances.

Choose from different power supply options to match your recording environment. USB Type-C™ can be more suited to studio time, while dry cell batteries (4xAA) are ideal for recording in the field.

The Digital Limiter lets you make interruption-free recordings, even at high levels. When saturation occurs, the recorder will automatically fill clipped portions with a back-up recording at as much as -12 dB. This means that even if volume spikes, you can be confident you've captured the flawless files you need.

The PCM-D10 features a push-lock jack that keeps your cables locked in place, so you can be sure you'll always get the take — even if you're at a bustling live show or reporting on the run.

An easy-to-read, on-screen display shows separate peak levels for your L and R channels, so you can see just where you need to tweak your inputs.

With 16 GB internal memory, you're always ready to lay down Hi-Res recordings. And with the capacity to add up to 256 GB of SD card storage, you can record professional audio, even through the longest sessions. Plus, if you turn on Cross-Memory REC mode, the recorder will automatically switch to SD card when you exceed the internal memory, so you can be sure you never miss a take.

Just one look and you can check if you're recording at safe levels thanks to the PCM-D10's three peak level lamps. These will light up to indicate if your levels hit -20 dB, -12 dB or overload. You can also monitor full bandwidth stereo levels on the display or via the Sony REC Remote app.

Featuring BLUETOOTH® connectivity, the PCM-D10 lets you relive the moment on your choice of wireless device. Perfect for casual reviews on your own or sharing instant playbacks with the whole crew.

Use the Sony REC Remote app to start recordings from your smartphone. This helps eliminate the interference sometimes caused by jogging the device when you hit the REC button. You can also use the app to adjust most recording settings, mark tracks and monitor your levels. Available for Android and iOS.

Recording an interview? Simply switch from stereo to monaural mode and the PCM-D10 will record on L channel only when an XLR cable is connected for perfect dialogue.

Recorded your raw audio? Now it's time to import to your computer via USB Type-C™ and work your editing or post-production magic.

The PCM-D10 is equipped with two 3300-uF capacitors, which eliminate power ripples so you can record clear, distortion-free sound.

Thanks to the ¼"-20 tripod screw hole, you can easily and securely mount the PCM-D10, whatever your recording setup.

The PCM-D10 is designed with a simple, intuitive button layout, so nothing comes between you and capturing the perfect recording. Plus, there are two custom buttons you can assign to modes such as high signal-to-noise or the Digital Limiter, giving you a shortcut to the operations you use most.

Captured your raw files? Then it's time to edit with Sound Forge Audio Studio 12, included as a download link and serial number. Ideal for cleaning up your interview audio or fine-tuning your band's performance before you share it with the world.

The PCM-D10 comes with a windscreen, designed to reduce wind noise when you're working in the field.

The PCM-D10 is finished with a tactile, plot-painted texture. This helps you keep a firm grip on your recorder.
