The Tascam DA-45HR stands out as the world’s pioneering digital audio tape (DAT) recorder that supports 24-bit recording. It boasts the ability to capture high-resolution data and record it onto the standard DAT tape, thereby providing an affordable and straightforward option for professional-quality 24-bit recording.
Moreover, the Tascam DA-45HR is not limited to only 24-bit recording. It can also operate as a standard 16-bit DAT recorder, allowing for the reading and writing of DATs created on typical DAT machines. This versatility makes it a flexible solution for various recording applications, catering to the needs of both amateur and professional users.
The Tascam DA-45HR’s ability to serve as both a 16-bit and 24-bit DAT recorder makes it a versatile option that can replace a standard 16-bit DAT recorder without the need for two separate machines, providing dual functionality in a single unit.
Moreover, the Word Clock I/O on the DA-45HR is an essential feature for integration into more extensive digital setups with a central clock source. The Word Clock In and Thru enable the unit to clock to an external source on playback, enhancing its compatibility with other equipment in a recording setup.
Additionally, the DA-45HR offers the same advanced functions as the DA-40, including track names, locate points, single play, selectable SCMS status, parallel and serial control, and calibrated I/O. These features offer greater control and customisation of the recording process, allowing users to tailor their recording experience to their specific needs.
For even more convenience, the optional RC-D45 wired remote is designed to work seamlessly with the DA-45HR, providing an easy-to-use interface that allows for remote control of the unit’s functions.
The Tascam DA-45HR’s ability to function as both a 16-bit and 24-bit DAT recorder, its Word Clock I/O feature, and its advanced functions make it a reliable and adaptable solution for various recording environments, with the optional RC-D45 wired remote providing added convenience for users.
