Korg D888 8-Track Digital Recording Studio description:
The Korg D888 Digital Recording Studio goes where no digital recorder has gone before. Its intuitive, real-time design assures immediate results.
Lightweight and portable, the Korg D888 is perfect as a live or location “capture” recorder for recording band rehearsals and gigs and other applications. In the field, the versatile input and output sections allow the Korg D888 to record on location without interfering with the P.A. system’s house mix. In the home studio, tracks can easily be transferred between the Korg D888 and a computer-based editing/recording environment thanks to native WAV format recording. A high speed USB 2.0 connection moves the data quickly, with the entire hard drive showing up as a mounted disk on your desktop. The MIDI output transmits MIDI Time Code so other equipment can sync up to the D888.
The Korg D888 offers an interface like no other digital recorder. As with a traditional analog mixer, each channel has its own channel strip, complete with trim, 3-band EQ, effect send, and pan controls – each element offering its own dedicated real-time knob. This allows a quick check of the current mixer settings by simply glancing at the knobs. Throughout, the mixer uses 40-bit, 44.1 kHz processing for a clean audio signal that surpasses CD quality. The eight individual output arrangement is incredibly versatile, allowing the Korg D888 to be the perfect choice in many audio situations. All eight tracks can be recorded or played back simultaneously. Eight virtual tracks exist for each track, bringing the total track count to 64.
The internal 40GB hard drive allows a maximum total recording time of over 120 hours. For ease of use, the recorder section of the Korg D888 uses traditional transport controls. A backlit LCD provides metering and other pertinent information. Eleven different effect types are provided for the Master effect, and are instantly selectable from the front panel. And of course, the effect settings are memorized with each song.
