Main Features1Main FeaturesEN12▌ High performance directional stereo microphone and quality amplifier circuitThe newly designed stereo condenser microphone enables you to record live quality sound. Our devotionto circuit design has realized separation of audio and system boards and independent power suppliesto each board, and consequently, achieves a low noise and a high S/N ratio. Supporting the minimumfrequency characteristic of 20 Hz, this recorder can reproduce the low frequency band much better thanconventional models. In addition, the design, which is highly resistant to sound pressure, with the upperlimit of 140dBSPL, enables you to record loud rock music without sound distortion.▌ Linear PCM 96kHz/24bit recordingThe supported recording format is the linear PCM format with a sampling rate of 96 kHz and a bit count of24 bits. High-resolution recording superior to music CD (44.1kHz/16bit) has been realized.▌ Multi-Track recording and editingThe Multi-Track recording mode allows you to separately record instruments and voice and then editand overlay each track. Up to eight tracks can be edited and played at the same time. You can also easilycreate music tunes.▌ XLR (24V/48V phantom power supply support)/ Standard phone combo jackXLR (24V/48V phantom power supply support)/ Standard phone combo jackStandard combo jack combined with a XLR external phone connector with phantom power supply support.Phantom power can be deactivated and is capable of operating at both 24V and 48V, and designedto reduce noise also when using extension cables.▌ Support for a variety of recording formatsThis recorder supports overdubbing, synchronization (playing and recording at the same time) and voicesynchronization recording in addition to the normal mode (usual recording). You can use this recorder ina wide range of applications such as field recording or when practicing an instrument.▌ Tuner functionThis recorder has a mode that supports tuning of guitar and bass guitar in addition to the basic chromatictuner. The reference tone “A” can be fine-tuned using the calibration function.▌ Metronome functionThe metronome can be used as a rhythm guide during recording or when practicing an instrument.▌ Lissajous measurement functionThis 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 octaveThe octave of the sound source recorded in the Multi-Track Mode can be adjusted with the key shiftfunction.▌ Audio CD output functionBy connecting an external USB CD drive and the recorder, you can directly write recorded files into a CD.▌ MP3 conversion functionThe recorded PCM (WAV) data can be converted into an MP3 file in the recorder. This enables you tomanage data in the easy-to-use format when writing it into a CD or attaching it to email.
