| RECORDING
FORMAT AND AVAILABLE TIME |
48 kHz | 44.1 kHz | 32 kHz | |
| Multitrack Pro | 742 | 808 | 1114 | |
| Mastering | 370 | 404 | 556 | |
| Multitrack 1 | 742 | 808 | 1114 | |
| Multitrack 2 | 990 | 1078 | 1484 | |
| Live 1 | 1188 | 1292 | 1782 | |
| Live 2 | 1484 | 1616 | 2228 | |
| Note:
the value is calculated in minutes for each track, employing a 2 Gb
HD. Mastering format is linear while other formats use various levels of data compression in order to optimize the HD memory capacity. For instance, the 8 tracks recording time at 44.1 Khz (2 Gb HD) in MT1 mode is about 101 minutes. All above listed values are rough : the time can slightly change depending on the employed drive specs and on the songs quantity. |

| MAXIMUM
STORE MEMORY CAPACITY |
128 Gb: 2 Gb x 8 locations x 8 drives (max. 200 Song for each location) | |||
| THD | -
Less than 0.005% in Multitrack Pro mode - Less than 0.003% in Mastering mode (Input sensitivity = 0 dBu, 1 kHz, output level) Note: distortion level depends from recording format employed. Increasing data compression distortion increases too. This can be heard expecially in MT2 and LIVE modes for the frequencies above 10 kHz. |
