In the studio or on the road, the Alesis ADAT-HD24
Digital Recorder gets the job done. This 24-track, 24-bit/96kHz hard
disk recorder was originally designed to fit comfortably into any
standard ADAT environment and match ADAT's legendary performance and
affordability. Today, more an more pros are using the HD24 for
high-quality audio capture, while freeing up computer resources for
more processor-intensive plug-ins, virtual instruments, and mixing.
The
onboard 40GB hard drive can be easily extended with low-cost IDE
computer drives that are as affordable as traditional ADAT tape on a
per-track basis. 2 hot-swappable media bays provide convenient access
to the recording drives and allow quick backup from one hard drive to
another. The only HD recorder that includes ADAT optical format and
ADAT Sync to work efficiently with existing ADAT systems. 44.1kHz and
48kHz internal sample rates, slaved to external word clock, with 96kHz
and 88.2kHz option. 12 tracks at 88.2 or 96kHz through the digital ins.
24 tracks at 44.1 or 48kHz through the digital or analog ins. 103dB
A/D/A converters. Internal editing including cut, copy, paste, and
track-move with undo. Multiple units can be synchronized to create a
larger system. 24 analog ins and outs, ADAT Optical in/out, word clock
in. All necessary hardware and connectors included.
