TASCAM’s
X-48mkII
is the world’s first standalone 48-track Hybrid Hard
Disk Workstation. Co-developed with SaneWave, it integrates the best
of both worlds: the stability and ease-of-use of a purpose-built hard disk
recorder, with the GUI, editing and mixing features of a computer-based
digital audio workstation.
The X-48mkII boasts up to 96kHz/24-bit recording across all 48 tracks. Its
file compatibility and synchronization surpass even the TEC Award-winning
MX-2424, with native Broadcast WAV audio file support and AAF export
for compatibility with workstations like Pro Tools
®
, Nuendo and Logic. Sup-
port for external hard drives and Gigabit Ethernet allows simple transfer
between systems, making it the ultimate multitrack solution for high-quality
music, post and live recording applications. Record an event to the inter-
nal 1TB drive, or capture to an external USB or eSATA drive, unplug and
deliver to a client for mixdown in the DAW of their choice.
The X-48mkII goes beyond mere standalone recorders with a built-in, auto-
mated 48-channel digital mixer and powerful editing functions. Plug in a
VGA monitor, mouse and keyboard for editing, track naming and monitor
mixing – nothing to install or troubleshoot. A DVD backup drive allows you
to archive and update projects.
Trust your live event recording to TASCAM’s compact X-48mkII multitrack
hard disk recorder.
