High performance directional stereo microphone and quality amplifier circuit

The newly designed stereo condenser microphone enables you to record live quality sound. Our devotion to circuit design has realized separation of audio and system boards and independent power supplies

to each board, and consequently, achieves a low noise and a high S/N ratio. Supporting the minimum frequency characteristic of 20 Hz, this recorder can reproduce the low frequency band much better than conventional models. In addition, the design, which is highly resistant to sound pressure, with the upper limit of 140dBSPL, enables you to record loud rock music without sound distortion.

Linear PCM 96kHz/24bit recording

The supported recording format is the linear PCM format with a sampling rate of 96 kHz and a bit count of 24 bits. High-resolution recording superior to music CD (44.1kHz/16bit) has been realized.

Multi-Track recording and editing

The Multi-Track recording mode allows you to separately record instruments and voice and then edit and overlay each track. Up to eight tracks can be edited and played at the same time. You can also easily create music tunes.

XLR (24V/48V phantom power supply support)/ Standard phone combo jack

XLR (24V/48V phantom power supply support)/ Standard phone combo jack

Standard combo jack combined with a XLR external phone connector with phantom power supply sup- port. Phantom power can be deactivated and is capable of operating at both 24V and 48V, and designed to reduce noise also when using extension cables.

Support for a variety of recording formats

This recorder supports overdubbing, synchronization (playing and recording at the same time) and voice synchronization recording in addition to the normal mode (usual recording). You can use this recorder in a wide range of applications such as field recording or when practicing an instrument.

Tuner function

This recorder has a mode that supports tuning of guitar and bass guitar in addition to the basic chromatic tuner. The reference tone “A” can be fine-tuned using the calibration function.

Metronome function

The metronome can be used as a rhythm guide during recording or when practicing an instrument.

Lissajous measurement function

This function detects the phase difference between the right and left microphones and the sound source. You can fine-tune their position and angle by checking the Lissajous waveform shown on the display.

Key shift to change octave

The octave of the sound source recorded in the Multi-Track Mode can be adjusted with the key shift function.

Audio CD output function

By connecting an external USB CD drive and the recorder, you can directly write recorded files into a CD.

MP3 conversion function

EN

The recorded PCM (WAV) data can be converted into an MP3 file in the recorder. This enables you to

manage data in the easy-to-use format when writing it into a CD or attaching it to email.
