I has all the usual connections; headphones, line out, USB, and a remote connecter. Just enable it from the menu. Here's a good tip: don't throw away the little bit of foam inside that hard case, keep it and use it to protect the delicate mic capsule (see photo) if you are storing this in the supplied case.

I would recommend this device to content creators who want a versatile device to add professional quality audio to their work. You won't be disappointed I'm sure! This is true for all handheld recorders so be sure to order a shock mount too! I would definitely say that I don't use all of the features, but, does that matter if it does a really good job of what I need it to do?

On the back of the unit is the battery compartment and a standard tripod screw hole so you can attach this to a tripod, boom pole or a cold shoe adapter. That's where Tascam could learn a few things as their recorders are known for bad battery life. Loving using it. When processing the audio (using Audacity mainly) I found by adding a low noise filter (which was hardly needed for most recordings but I always do this anyway) and amplifying the recording it produced extremely professional results.

It handled everything with ease and was able to reproduce the sound just as I heard it. The mic capsule at the top of the device also has a Line In 3. Just as long as the quality was good enough.
