either PCM (.WAV) or MP3 audio formats. The light weight
compact form (just 62 x 102 x 25 mm), ergonomic design
and ease of operation recommend the PMD620 to a wide
range of users, including journalists, reporters,
programme makers, podcasters, musicians and sound
recordists everywhere.
Features include an inbuilt stereo condenser microphone
array for ‘point and shoot recording’, and an intuitive
control surface for single handed operation, with thumb
operated transport wheel and tactile, red illuminating,

operation for their application.

• User configurable, high contrast OLED display
• Solid State SD and SDHC card recording media
• Selectable stereo / mono / .WAV / MP3 recording

card capacity. Recording time with a 4 GB card extends
from 3 hrs 44 mins for stereo PCM at 24-bit / 48 kHz, to
283 hrs 44 mins – almost 12 days – for mono MP3 at 32

PMD661
Professional Compact Digital Audio Recorder
Introducing the Marantz Professional PMD661, a highly
robust, versatile professional handheld PCM / MP3
recorder, which joins a range including the highly
successful PMD620 & PMD671
The PMD661 sports a professional broadcast feature set
alongside major new design innovations, including a
significantly smaller footprint than the PMD660, an
improved top facia layout with fewer buttons and more
highly developed use of multi-functional operation.
Measuring just 165 x 93 x 36 mm (6.5” x 3.7” x 1.4”), is 1/3
smaller than the PMD660, and combined with the
improved control layout it ensures comprehensive single
handed operation. The new feature set includes an
integrated high quality stereo condenser microphone
array for ‘point and shoot’ operation, and a highly visible
128 x 64 dots matrix OLED (organic LED) display.
The PMD661 features both balanced mic and balanced
line XLR inputs, as well as unbalanced line outs on RCA
connectors and a secondary unbalanced line in on 3.5
mm mini jack connector. Also included for the first time
at this price point within the Marantz range is a high
resolution 24-bit / 96 kHz recording option (PCM). The
PMD661 utilises SD flash media, the most widely available
and fastest developing flash memory format.
Compatibility with SDHC media means that cards
currently up to 32 GB in size can be used. High capacity
media storage is matched by six hours recording time
from four AA Alkaline / Ni-MH batteries. Drag and drop
file transfer is supported via the USB 2.0 port.
PMD Marker Editor: For the first time Marantz Professional
has bundled it’s Marker Editor software free in the box.
PMD Mark Editor allows the marker points made on the
recorded file to be adjusted post-recording, and a new
file created, meaning basic editing can be carried out on
any handy PC or laptop, and files posted for immediate
distribution.

CDR310
Professional Portable CD Audio Recorder
Marantz is taking CD recording to the next level with the
CDR310, the first truly portable, affordable CD-based field
recorder. Whether for documentation, duplication, or
archiving, audio CDs promote confidence through their
permanence and universality. While digital recording and
CD burning have been commonplace for several years,
existing hardware has lacked the go-anywhere flexibility
and ease of use that users have come to expect in the
digital age. The CDR310 has changed all that. The CDR310
frees the user from the constraints of system-based
solutions, delivering the same great recording quality in
portable field capture as it does in permanent
installations. With an on-board hard drive, the compact,
lightweight CDR310 records high quality 16-bit audio in
CD-DA, WAV, AIFF or MP3 file formats, then can burn a CD
instantly, on location. Best of all, the CDR310 has battery
operation capability so you can take it anywhere.

The simplicity of digital recording
Our guide to the advantages recording to digital solid state media
Record
Digital quality & consistency
Say goodbye to tape recorders. Whatever you choose to record,
the easiest way to do it is digitally. Whether it’s a meeting, an
interview, or a concert, just push the record button and capture
everything in superb CD-quality audio. It's that simple.
Regardless of whether you’re recording from an external source or
using a built-in mic, Marantz solid state recorders all work in the
same way - you push the button - it records. Fancy that...
Save
Digital capacity & reliability
No more flipping tapes over. No more songs or conversations cut
in half. No more audio degradation or damaged, stuttering CDs.
Using CompactFlash or SD cards, just like the ones in your digital
camera, you can capture over 3 hours of CD-quality audio - or up
to 12 days of mp3 audio! You’ll never miss a thing again.
Once stored on CompactFlash or SD card your recordings are
secure - there are no moving parts to go wrong and they’re less
vulnerable to dust, vibrations and humidity - all those nasty things
that can cause problems for other media.
Share
Digital flexibility & simplicity
With digital, the days of copying from tape-to-tape are over. Once
you’ve finished recording, getting the audio on to your PC or Mac
is 'Drag & Drop' simple via USB connection - or by inserting your
CompactFlash or SD card into a standard card reader. Because it’s
digital you can transfer the data in seconds - and there’s no quality
loss so you'll get a perfect copy every time.
Once stored on your computer, the possibilities are endless and fast. Edit, convert, share via email, publish to a website,
burn to CD... it’s the quickest, easiest way to prepare, copy and
distribute audio.
