Olympus is supposedly about to come out with a high quality eight-track recorder with talking menus. See below: Olympus LS-100 Olympus has announced the latest addition to its popular LS series of digital recorders with the addition of the LS-100 linear PCM audio recorder. Aimed at musicians and audio enthusiasts, it comes with a combination of professional interconnects, high quality sound recording, multitracking and extra features in a convenient pocket size. Olympus LS-100 Audio Recorder It's an impressive little device with a matching list of features - two internal 90-degree directional stereo condenser microphones with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz and capable of capturing sound pressure levels up to 140 dB (which is about as loud as you'd really want to get). - uncompressed 24 bit/96 kHz Linear PCM digital recording saved to the internal 4GB memory or on SD (up to 2GB) / SDHC (up to 32GB) / SDXC (up to 64GB) cards. - separate audio and system circuitry to keep the signal clean. - low cut filter at either 100 Hz or 300 Hz to eliminate low frequency background noise. - two quarter-inch XLR / standard phone combo jacks, supporting phantom power at 48/24 volts to power high-quality external microphones. - 8 track multitracking, with independent volume and pan control. - tuner and metronome. - Lissajous measurement which shows the phase difference betweenthe left and right mics. - direct CD mastering. - 2? LCD screen and all-metal body. "The Olympus LS series has been a favourite of musicians, artists and music lovers, and the LS-100 is an evolution in this series designed with the working musician, specifically, in mind," said Amy Leslie, Sr. Marketing & Business Development Manager, Olympus Imaging America Inc. "For songwriting sessions, band rehearsals, live performances, broadcasting, or really anything that requires the highest quality of audio recording, the LS-100 is an ideal, all-encompassing recording solution." Nevermind all that, it just looks cool. Full details on the LS-100 are here and it will be available from all good stores in February 2012 for $399.

I've done this type of recording with both a PC and a mac, and truthfully, I'm looking for an easier way to get the original recordings of separate tracks, with the idea of mastering on the Mac post recording. > > I'm considering the tascam dp -008, tascam dp -02 and the tascam 2488 NEO. > Does anyone have any experience with either of these unites, or is there a unit out there that other blind musicians find more appropriate. > I'd appreciate any feedback you may have. > > Warm Regards: > Matt Diemert > > > To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: > pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org > To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
