Professional Portable Solid Recorder
PMD671
The PMD671 can record 24-bit, 96 kHz audio for
the highest sound quality available in the field or even in the studio. The ability to read-after-write offers completely new levels of functionality never before available in a field recorder. Even the mic preamps have been dramati cally improved. Then add programmable presets, and changing formats on the fly is as easy as pressing a button. Serious professionals n eed serious tools.

Recording PCM audio at 24-bit resolution and 96 kHz sampling frequency is the absolute state of the art for digital audio applications. It offers 256 times the amplitude resolution, and more than twice the frequency resolution of compact discs.
RAW (VTH-Virtual Third Head)
Professional analog recorders had a dedicated third head” to monitor recorded signals after they were printed to tape. It was called, “confidence monitoring”, because it allowed engineers to be 100% confident about what they had recorded as it was happening. The PMD671 is unique in offering the 21st century version of this same functionality, by playing back the recorded data simultaneously, rather than simply monitoring the input source.
