Tascam HS-8 8-Channel Professional Solid State Recorder
TASCAM's HS-8 is the first solution 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. Also 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 settings and tracks. A mixer is built in for monitoring, and the stereo 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 continuous recording. The RC-HS20PD remote control allows operation from a separate room over RJ-45 connection.
TASCAM's HS-8 is the perfect DTRS successor, with the instant access, ease-of-use and sound quality studio and post professionals demand.
