RC-3F : RC-3F

I've heard a few people complain that this foot switch is expensive. Certainly compare to a 'dumb' standard foot switch that merely sends a on/off pulse it is.

However this model has 3 programmable switches and allows you to control your transport pretty comprehensively in a remote situation. Particularly good if your tracking drums on your own, or something of that nature and cant reach the main unit easily.

Build quality is solid and up to tascam standards. I like the big center switch particularly and all switches are nicely responsive, but don't trigger incorrectly. Stays where it's put. Some smaller switches tend to move around. Has a nice long lead, but of course because it does not use a standard TRS cable, there's no easy way to extend it.

I would recommend this highly if you need to track on your own with a tascam portastudio and want more than just a punch in option.
