High-Resolution 32-bit Float Recording
The Portacapture X8 is designed to capture detailed, professional-quality sound with sampling rates up to 192 kHz and 32-bit float recording. This gives you excellent flexibility when working with quiet ambience, loud sound sources, unpredictable interviews, live music, and location audio where perfect gain staging is not always possible.
For post-production, the wide dynamic recording capability helps preserve detail and gives editors more control when balancing levels in DAW software, video editing platforms, or podcast production workflows.
Flexible Inputs for Professional Recording
With four professional XLR/TRS combo inputs plus additional mini-jack input and output, the Tascam Portacapture X8 is ready for a wide range of recording setups. Use it with condenser microphones, dynamic microphones, line-level sources, camera feeds, external audio devices, or the included detachable stereo microphones.
The included left and right microphones can be configured for A-B or X-Y recording patterns, giving you flexibility for wide stereo ambience, focused dialogue, music performances, sound effects, interviews, and natural field recordings.
Touchscreen Workflow for Fast Setup
The Portacapture X8 uses a large colour touchscreen with a Launcher-style interface, allowing you to quickly select the right recording mode for your application. This makes it easy to start recording without getting lost in complex menus, while still giving advanced users manual control when required.
Whether you are capturing a podcast, recording music, filming video, creating interviews, or gathering sound outdoors, the X8 helps you move quickly while maintaining professional results.
USB Audio Interface and Mobile Production Tool
The Portacapture X8 can also operate as a USB audio interface, streaming up to eight tracks through USB for computer-based recording, live streaming, video narration, conferencing, and DAW production. With USB Type-C connectivity and USB 2.0 high-speed support, it is a practical centrepiece for mobile recording and content creation setups.
Its compact body, battery power, camera connection options, headphone output, and built-in speaker make it useful both in controlled studio environments and fast-moving production locations.
