Tascam HD-P2 Recorder

Tascam HD-P2

 is a lightweight, moderately priced professional 2-channel stereo field recorder. The Tascam HD-P2 machine records to Compact Flash and Microdrive storage media, and writes the audio in the Broadcast Wave File format.

The Tascam HD-P2 is equipped with comprehensive SMPTE and Video synchronization, Firewire connectivity for seamless file transfer to DAW applications, and a transparent user interface with familiar tape machine-style transports.

The Tascam HD-P2 also features a large, backlit LCD display, phantom power for condenser microphones, and a separate headphone amplifier with a dedicated volume control.

Convenient FireWire Connectivity for Fast Data Transfers
TASCAM made a really wise choice by including FireWire connectivity in the Tascam HD-P2. So whether you want to send some audio to a Mac or PC for fine-tuning (or even major edits), you won't spend time twiddling your thumbs while some sloth-like data transfers are in progress. As we all know, FireWire is super fast. Need to send your audio into a full-blown digital audio workstation? No problemo, dude. The Tascam HD-P2 has you covered.

Built-in Synchronization
The TASCAM HD-P2 comes standard with a full featured timecode input, making it the most affordable recorder with built-in timecode ever made. Incoming LTC is connected to the locking XLR input for timetamping your broadcast WAVE files from a central clock. The Tascam HD-P2 also "Chases" incoming timecode during playback for review or loading into an editor. A video clock input allows frame edge resolve to a central blackburst source or use as a lock-and-release timecode slave.

Large Angled LCD and Intuitive User Interface
Although the HD-P2 was designed for demanding film shoots and live concerts, Tascam HD-P2 is still simple and affordable enough for use in everyday situations. The Tascam HD-P2's large, angled backlit LCD is uncluttered, yet Tascam HD-P2 delivers all the information you need to get the job done. The angled display is easily read from a tabletop or when the Tascam HD-P2 unit is shoulder mounted. The user interface is straightforward - there's no steep learning curve, so you can begin using the HD-P2 almost immediately.

Onboard XLR Inputs Plus Unbalanced RCA and S/PDIF I/O
The HD-P2 is ready to work with you, using the accessories you choose. For use with today's premium quality microphones, the Tascam HD-P2 unit has balanced XLR inputs with phantom power, so you can actually take your better mics out in the field for the best results. There are also unbalanced RCA ins and outs for those times when you need to record an analog line-level signal. Finally, the HD-P2 has a digital S/PDIF I/O, allowing it to easily interface with almost any other digital audio device on the planet, like DAT machines, hard disk recorders and more!
