About the Tascam 8 Channel Audio Recorder HS-8

 

TASCAM's HS-8 is the first solution for professional multi-channel recording and playback using solid-state media. From studio surround recording to post production playback of HS-P82 location recordings, the HS-8 fits a variety of multi-channel roles. Also true to TASCAM tradition, audio is top-quality throughout with up to 192kHz/24-bit recording. 

 

Like the HS-P82, the HS-8 uses a color touch-screen interface to access settings and tracks. A mixer is built-in for monitoring, and the stereo mix can be recorded live as a separate track. Audio is recorded as Broadcast WAV files to Compact Flash media, with SMPTE timecode available on various interfaces.

The RC-HS20PD remote control enables the HS-8 to instantly start playback of up to 100 takes (flash-start) directly, or by using the fader start/stop option.  The built-in TFT color touch screen can be used for the same operations as the display on the connected HS-8.  The RC-HS20PD is connected to the HS-8 with a CAT6 cable, enabling control of the HS-8 from up to 10m away (5m cable included with product).

 

TASCAM's HS-8 is very versatile, with the instant access, ease-of-use, and sound quality studio and post professionals demand. 

 

Also available: the HS-2 stereo solid-state recorder with timecode.
