THD |
Less
than 0.08% in Mastering mode (input sens. = -10 dBm, 1 kHz, nominal
output level)
Note: distortion level depends from recording mode. Increasing data
compression, distortion increases too. This can be heard in MT2 and
LIVE modes for frequencies over 10 kHz. |

INPUTS |
-
4 Mic/Line balanced inputs (phone jack and pin RCA, gain from -50
to + 4 dBu)
- Stereo digital in (S/PDIF), in coaxial and optical format |
OUTPUTS |
-
Master Out (pin RCA, 0 dBu)
- A-B Aux Send (pin RCA, 0 dBu)
- Stereo Digital Out (S/PDIF), in coaxial and optical format
- Phones Out (stereo phone jack, 8 - 50 ohm) |
SIGNAL
CONVERSION
AND PROCESSING |
-
A/D converter: 18-bit, 256x oversampling
- D/A converter: 18-bit, 8x oversampling
- Internal processing: 24-bit |
CHANNELS
(INPUT MIXER) |
-
Control of 6 analog inputs and Digital In L/R pair
- Input signals can be assigned to recording or stereo bus |
MODE
INPUT > TRACK |
-
6 inputs on 8 tracks: 8 channels with 3 bands +/- 12 dB E (Low: 40-1500
Hz shelving semipar. Mid: 200-8000 Hz peaking param. High: 0.5-18
kHz shelving semipar.).
Note: this mode allows a direct recording of the input signals without
EQ processing (used for monitoring). During remix, the recorder 8
tracks can use the 3 bands EQ. |
MODE
INPUT MIX > TRACK MIX |
-
6 inputs + 8 tracks: 14 channels with 2 bands +/- 12 dB EQ (Low: 40-1500
Hz shelving semipar. High: 0.5-18 kHz shelving semipar.)
Note: this mode allows to use the EQ during input signals recording
or tracks bouncing. During remix, the recorder 8 tracks, the 4 analog
and the 2 digital inputs can use the 2 bands EQ. |
MEMORIES

MIDI CONTROL |
-
Scene memories for mix parameters storage (up to 8 scene memories
available for each song)
- Dynamic mix control through MIDI (via Control Change or SysEx) |
