Overview
By combining traditional multitrack tape recording features with the power and
flexibility of hard disk recording, the Mackie Designs MDR24/96 takes multitrack
recording to a level never before achieved by a product in its price range. In
addition to the standard battery of traditional tape-based features, the MDR24/96:
• Combines the familiarity of a multitrack tape machine with the security of
non-destructive recording and non-degrading recording media.
• Records simultaneously on all 24 tracks at 44.1 or 48 kHz and on 12
tracks at 88.2 or 96 kHz. At 48 kHz the internal hard drive stores over
2200 track-minutes of 24-bit audio (90 minutes of 24 full tracks). That’s
more than six reels of 2” tape at 30 inches per second! At 96 kHz the drive
stores 1100 track-minutes of 24-bit audio (45 minutes of 24 full tracks).
• Has eight Virtual Takes per track, allowing you to record multiple passes
without having to change routing and bussing assignments or use
additional tracks.
• Iinterfaces with any analog or digital console. The MDR24/96 uses the
same I/O cards as the Mackie Digital 8•Bus console: the AIO•8 (24-bit
analog A/D and D/A), DIO•8 (TDIF/ADAT Optical), PDI•8 (AES/EBU),
and low-cost OPT•8 (ADAT Optical).
• Provides three convenient methods of backup: Mackie Media M•90, a
removable hard drive (also capable of 24-track recording and playback),
Mackie Media PROJECT, a removable drive using inexpensive, removable
2.2 GB ORB cartridges; and data transfer to another computer through the
MDR24/96’s 100 Base-T Ethernet port via the built-in FTP server.
• Offers two optional remote control devices – the compact Remote 24 for
smaller project studios, and the full-featured Remote 48 for controlling up
to 48 tracks on two MDR24/96 recorders.
