TASCAM’s
HS-8
and
HS-2
are the first solutions for professional multi-
track recording and playback to solid-state media. From studio surround
recording to post production playback of HS-P82 location recordings, the
HS-8 fits a variety of multitrack roles first pioneered by TASCAM’s DA-88
recorders. True to TASCAM tradition, audio is top-quality throughout with
up to 192kHz/24-bit recording.
Like the HS-P82, the HS-8 uses a color touch-screen interface to access set-
tings and tracks. A stereo mixer is built in for monitoring, and the mix can
be recorded live as a separate track. Audio is recorded as Broadcast WAV
files to Compact Flash media, with SMPTE timecode available on various
interfaces. A pair of CF card slots is available for data mirroring or continu-
ous recording.
The HS-2 adds affordable stereo recording and playback to solid state
media. Timecode on the HS-2 is added through an option card, the SY-2,
making it an ideal broadcast replacement for timecode DAT recorders. The
RC-HS20PD
remote control allows operation of either recorder from a
separate room over a RJ-45 connection.
TASCAM’s HS-8 and HS-2 provide the sound quality, instant access and
ease-of-use that studio and post professionals demand.
