However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Whether you’re starting a podcast, collecting found sounds for your next project or even capturing sound for videography; you need professional gear you can rely on. The Portacapture X6 is one of the most advanced yet user-friendly portable audio recorders on the market. With an innovative preset launcher system, intuitive touchscreen controls and built-in audio processing; you have everything you could possibly need!
Dual premium-grade condenser microphones provide superior sound reproduction, capturing every subtle detail in high-resolution audio formats. Boasting resolutions ranging up to 32-bit/192kHz, the X6 ensures you get the highest quality audio possible. Utilising cutting-edge technology, the 32-bit floating point audio quality allows for lossless audio quality on the move, ensuring distortion-free results in post-production.
With multi-track recording, the X6 can process up to six signals (four inputs and a stereo mix), making it highly versatile. For example, you can plug in four outboard condenser mics and start your own podcast! By supporting the USB Type-C power, the unit can supply any external microphone with phantom power via the USB bus. It is also great for live-streaming via OBS and other similar platforms. You can even use it to record narration for your next YouTube video – offering a direct recording of dialogue to DAW and editing software.
Recording made easy. The Portcapture X6 offers numerous ways to optimise and refine your audio recording experience including six onboard recording apps. The six different apps are suited to six different recording applications. The Voice setting is great for capturing interviews, dictation, meetings and audio for vlogs. The Podcast optimises the recorder for creating a podcast with up to four people. The Music settings is more suitable for instrument/vocal performances. Choosing the Field setting will optimise the recorder for capturing natural outdoor sounds. There is even an ASMR setting which will change the screen’s visual effect in response to the input sound.
Quality sound and content is dependent on the gear you’re using. With the Portacapture X6 you’re safe in the knowledge that you are getting the best possible sound every single time. The built-in dual condenser mics provide high-end sound reproduction with immersive stereo imaging. And with the six recording apps to choose from, whether you’re a beginner or a pro, you’re set for anything.
Utilising high-end A/D converters, the X6 provides you with a preset level setting so you can capture an ultra-wide dynamic range. With uncompromised audio fidelity, you can then go back in later and adjust low-level recordings without affecting the overall quality of take. There is also an onboard normalise feature so you can easily align the level of a stereo mix.
The X6 has a myriad of connections so you can use the recorder with all your other gear including condenser microphones and DSLR cameras. With two pro-grade XLR/TRS combo inputs, you can capture mic/line level signals with the utmost accuracy and high-end sound quality. It also features an input/output for a mini-jack so you can hook the X6 up to a camera or audio device. From here you can use slate tones to sync your camera and video material, ensuring everything aligns in post-production. The camera output level is adjustable also, so it can be used with virtually any camera.
Ready for action. No matter where you are, the X6 is always ready to record. It comes complete with 4 x AA batteries which can power the unit for up to 13 hours. Alternatively, you can use other power sources for convenience including USB bus power or an AC adapter (not included). With USB bus power you can also utilise Phantom Power to incorporate external condenser microphones.
For the more demanding recording situations, you can use a Bluetooth dongle (not included) so you can wirelessly control the X6 via a smartphone or tablet device. It even has a handy feature that will automatically switch between power sources should your batteries run out – so you never miss a take again!
The Tascam WS-86 Windscreen for Portacapture series and DR series minimises wind noise when recording outdoors using your Portacapture Handheld Recorder. Designed to work with both the X6 and the X8 models, the WS-86 optimises the acoustic performance of your recorder, helping to eliminate wind and gusts of air, whilst remaining acoustically transparent.
Crafted from artificial fur, the Tascam WS-86 fits snugly onto your recorder and can be used when your microphones are set in either the XY or the AB position. Lightweight and easy to attach, the WS-86 windscreen is a must-have accessory for any Portacapture user on the move.
