TASCAM DA-3000 Professional Rackmounted Digital Recorder

Stereo Rack Memory Recorder
The UR-2 is a 1 U rack size stereo audio recorder using SD card and USB storage device that is flexibly adapting to the wide variety of playback requirements.
The UR-2 is a new generation stereo memory recorder from Fostex that uses 2 SD cards (SDHC compatible) and USB storage device as the recording media. The recording/ playback file format is BWF (WAV). Its ample playback functions will adapt to the wide variety of playback requirements. It offers high quality recording of up to 24bit/96kHz (in BWF format). Employing FAT 32 disc format, it is easy to process the file transfer to a PC based DAW.
The analog input and output are balanced XLR/+4dBu and un-balanced RCA/-10dBV, the digital input and output complies to AES/EBU and S/P DIF digital signal. It is flexible to be used in the available audio system. The playback function includes Chain Play and Timer Play, it is suitable for live stage performance and sound installation. In addition to the external control via parallel remote with D-Sub 25pin and RS-232C serial remote, a USB keyboard and 10-key keyboard can trigger the instant playback start, which is very useful at a live event, theater and broadcast environments.
The Mic input located on the front panel offers 48V phantom power, it can be used not only for recording but also for speech to be mixed with playback source. Last but not least, its newly employed organic EL display gives an extremely clear visibility. This combined with DC power operation, it serves for outdoor use very well.

The DNRP-WRC provides two button record control and visual status indication of a connected Denon® DN-F450R/F650R recorder.

The mouse sized unit, once connecte to the recorder using its integral 5 metre lead, can be placed in a convenient location on a board/ meeting room table to allow the recording of conferences and discussions. Visual indication of recorder status is provided by high brightness red and green indicators located around the RECORD button, which show STOP, PLAY, PLAY PAUSE, PLAY F.FWD, PLAY F.REV, CARD ERROR, RECORD and RECORD PAUSE. The two button control allows the recorder to be placed into record mode, create a new record mark and stop the recording process.

The DNRP-WRC is primarily for the simple control of audio recording in areas where conversations, discussions or conferences are taking place. The unit allows the DNF450R/F650R recorder to be placed out of sight to prevent media tampering or access to all the recorder controls.

• Simple unobtrusive controller for the recording of audio in board/meeting rooms
• Easy connection to Denon DN-F450R/F650R recorder serial (RS232) port
• Provides bright visual indication of STOP, PLAY, PLAY PAUSE, PLAY F.FWD, PLAY F.REV, CARD ERROR, RECORD and RECORD PAUSE
• RECORD and STOP buttons allow simple control without the need to access the recorder

The D-2012C is a 6U rack mountable Remote Console Unit designed for exclusive use with the D-2008SP Digital Mixing Processor Unit. Assigned to any desired channels inside the D-2008SP by the dedicated software, the D-2012C's 12 motorized faders and 8 rotary encoders can remotely adjust their volumes. Desired preset memories can be recalled using 8 function keys. It is equipped with 1 channel line input (stereo), which allows the audio signal to be transmitted to the D-2008SP via monitor bus. Audio signals inside the D-2008SP can be monitored via monitor bus through headphones connected to a stereo headphone output. The D-2012C can be installed on a desk with the additional use of an optional D-2012AS Console Case.
