DIGITAL RACKMOUNT

RECORDERS

Representing the pinnacle of hard
disk recording technology, D Series
recorders provide a full eight (D-

108) or sixteen (D-160v2) tracks of
uncompressed digital audio. Both
embody the audio quality, ease of
use, and affordability for which
Fostex is famous, and offer an
unprecedented range of expansion
and configuration options to fit the needs
of any studio.

The potent D-160v2 is the first 16-track hard disk
recorder with the ability to record 16 digital tracks
simultaneously. Truly the new standard of excellence in digi­tal recording today, it offers a vast array of thoughtful and professional features. Its
removable 2.55gb hard drive provides a full half-hour of recording on all sixteen tracks
(or one full hour on eight tracks, two hours on four tracks, etc.), and can be inter­changed with a variety of hard drive options* for nearly limitless storage. Its built-in dual
ADAT™ interface makes it a perfect addition to an established digital studio looking to
expand its capabilities. Built-in SCSI-2 and S/PDIF interfaces make for convenient back up
that never leaves the digital realm. And its 16-bit linear, CD-quality audio—with no com­pression whatsoever—gives you exceptionally clear and full audio. The front panel even
detaches to become a full-function remote with a jog/shuttle wheel and easy control over
Fostex’s new FDMS-3 disk management system.

The new D-108 provides nearly all the features of the D-160v2 (except that it has a sin­gle ADAT Lightpipe™ interface and does not support .WAV files) in an eight-track version.
