Tascam DA-98HR
Professional 24-bit
Digital Multitrack Recorder
|
|
At the head of the TASCAM DTRS range, the DA-98HR is both the ultimate modular multitrack recorder and the perfect master-controller for system-users. With a built-in chase-synchroniser and enhanced menu-driven control software to ease complex tracking and synchronisation, the TASCAM DA-98HR is optimised to command modular digital multitrack systems comprising any combination of other DTRS recorders. The addition of a DA-98HR to an existing system introduces the latest control ideas and enhancements to the entire system.
