I know recorders have been discussed at length on here, but a search didn't turn up anything. Can anyone compare these units. I know the H4n is very popular here but I wanted to check a bit lower price range. The Tascams are attractive to me because I also do video production and they both have XLR inputs. It's not a deal-breaker tho, converter plugs are available...

Don't know if this helps? cheesycam.com/tascam-dr-40-vs-zoom-h4n/I've got an H4 and it is excellent, never heard the Tascam so can't help. However, I now mainly use my laptop and an Apogee Duet plus a C1000 for most of my live recording unless it needs to be a bit more discreet. Better sound (H4 still good) and much more manageable file handling etc. I've synched audio to video from different sources, what video editor would you be using?

Thanks Phil. I wonder why they compare the H4n to the DR-40 (it's like $100+ cheaper). The DR 100 is closer in cost and features (but I found them for $230 UC vs $300+ for the H4n). Haven't read the review yet, so maybe they talk about that. We edit on final cut pro.
