TASCAM has announced the SS-R1 and SS-CDR1, a pair of single-rack-space Compact Flash recorders for the installation market. Designed for applications that previously used a cassette or MiniDisc recorder, the SS-R1 records in WAVE or MP3 formats to achieve extended recording times. The SS-CDR1 adds a slot-loading CD recorder for additional recording and audio transfer functions. Each recorder includes balanced and unbalanced audio inputs and outputs, RS-232 and parallel control and a wired remote control.
Patti Gunnell, Sales Manager for Installed Sound/Broadcast Products for TASCAM, told us, "The SS-R1 and SS-CDR1 provide a whole range of recording and playback solutions for the entire installation community. Solid State technology provides hours of recording to affordable Compact Flash media, and recordings can be transferred quickly to computers for editing or uploading. With fewer moving parts to break down, these products should provide years of trouble free use."
