D824/D1624 Reference Manual (Introduction/Main features/Precautions)
Introduction
This is a digital recorder installed with a 3.5 inch E-IDE hard disk recording media for recording, playback and
editing real tracks (D824=8 tracks, D1624=16 tracks) with an additional track.
Together with non-compression recording by quantized 16bit/44.1kHz or 48kHz, 24bit/44.1kHz or 48kHz,
or 24bit/96kHz (8 track), it also contains about input/output (By switch to S/P DIF). In addition to analog
simultaneous record and playback, digital recording (S/P DIF or adat) by using the DIGITAL/DATA input/
output, it also complies to simultaneous recording of analog input+digital inputs (S/P DIF or adat).
Therefore, a 100% digital recording System can be built by combining various digital mixers.
In regards to backup of song data, in addition to conventional DAT, the original adat backup function is
supported making possible high speed backup using the standard installed SCSI connector.
By installing the optional Model 8345 TC/SYNC card, in addition to phasing against the standard WORD clock,
it will also comply to slave operation by external LTC and phasing against the VIDEO reference signal. Moreover,
by installing the optional Model 5042 balancing 8-8 I/O card (Exclusive for D824; sold separately) or the
Model 5043 balancing 8-16 I/O card (Exclusive for D1624; sold separately), +4dBu analog balanced input/
output can be added.
Main features
The unit's recorder section uses a recording format called FDMS-3 Ver 2.0 (Fostex Disk Management
System-3). It uses an E-IDE hard disk as the recording media.
