Hello, this is my first post here. Just got a DP-32SD unit to record my band and projects.
My apologies if this has been post about recently, this site won't let me search for 'SD card' and I didn't see any recent posts.
It seems that the Tascam website is quite out of date regarding compatible SD cards for this unit. The only brand I'm seeing in stores here is SanDisk. I found an Extreme Pro SDHC UHS-I at a Best Buy but it's the SDSDXPA-032G-A46END instead of the SDSDXPA-032G-J35N listed on the Tascam website. I had to have an employee look up the model number as it wasn't actually listed on the packing. And I see that the J35N model is discontinued. Are these the same or is Tascam no longer testing new SD card models for compatibility? I also investigated an Ultra PLUS SDHC UHS-I 16GB card and the model number was different. A Target store I went to had mostly micro SD cards rather than the standard size ones.
I hope I'm getting something terribly wrong here. I've used a DP-008EX for 4 or 5 years and love it, just want to be able to use more mics at the same time and store more tracks. I did once make the mistake with my 008EX of using a non-Tascam approved SD card and it stopped working after awhile, don't want to have that happen again.
