Korg D1600V40 Digital Recording Studio




D1600V40 Digital Recording Studio - An affordable 16-track digital recorder that packs recording, mixing, and final CD mastering into a professional quality all-in-one unit. This unit is the Korg D1600, including a CD Recorder and 40GB hard drive as standard features!
16-Track Digital Recorder with CD-RW Drive and 40GB Hard Drive
For each of its sixteen tracks the D1600 provides eight virtual tracks, so you can literally use up to 128 tracks (16 x 8 virtual tracks) for each song! These tracks can be used in any way you choose... to try multiple passes at a guitar solo, to capture a variety of vocal performances, etc. Then you can select or even assemble your perfect take from these many tracks. By specifying a virtual track as the recording destination when bounce-recording, you can also combine the data of all tracks into two tracks without losing any data. You can even create different mixes and select the best one.

Uncompressed recording and playback for top-quality sound
Uncompressed recording/playback is the reason why Korg's digital recording studios are acclaimed for their superior audio quality. On the D1600 Korg's PASE (Pure Audio Sound Engine) provides uncompressed 24 bit, 44.1 kHz high-quality recording that goes well beyond CD-quality, with a wide dynamic range that captures every sonic detail.

Non-destructive, sophisticated editing
Non-destructive, sophisticated editing Since this recorder is fully digital, operations such as copying, pasting, or erasing phrases are as easy as specifying the IN, OUT, and TO locations. The Undo and Redo functions give you up to 99 levels of undo so it's easy to compare edits and arranging ideas. Plus, you can choose 1, 8 or 99 levels of Undo to make the most efficient use of your hard disk space. You can also set Locate points (four per song) and Mark points (100 per song, with names), which makes accessing song locations for playback or editing fast and simple. The Time Expansion/Compression function makes it possible for phrases of differing tempo to be matched after they have already been recorded, or to make a phrase fit into a specific time. We've even included Normalize and Fade commands.

Create CD's without external equipment
The D1600 features a CD-R/RW bay that makes it possible to write digital audio directly to a CD. The CDRW-2X8 option is now included, and can be used to backup/restore data, create audio CDs or playback audio CDs.

High-performance digital mixer section
The D1600 features a 24 channel, 8 bus digital mixer with sixteen 60 mm faders, which let you make smooth, precise level adjustments. The Pairing function allows adjacent channels to be used as a stereo pair, for up to 8 mono plus 4 stereo tracks. A variety of audio sources can be connected directly, ranging from mic level to a +16 dBu level. To match the quality of the full-digital processing, all analog inputs use high-performance balanced preamps. The D1600 provides four XLR jacks with high-quality mic preamps and +48V phantom power, so condenser mics can be connected directly to the D1600. All phone type inputs are balanced TRS jacks and a dedicated guitar input jack is also provided.

Serious EQ
Each analog input and mixer channel has its own high and low shelving EQ, plus adjustable-frequency mid EQ. Because the D1600 has separate EQs for the inputs and the mixer, you can rest assured that the EQ settings for recording remain distinct from those set for playback, avoiding some of the EQ problems that occur on other multi-track recorders and analog mixers.

A highly versatile effect section
The effects section of the D1600 consists of multiple effects units: up to eight insert effects that can be used with either mono or stereo inputs and outputs, two types of master effects driven by sends from each channel, and a final effect applied to the master out. Many of these effects feature Korg's exclusive REMS (Resonance structure and Electronic circuit Modeling System) technology. These effects include numerous replications of classic guitar amps, and amazingly accurate simulations of the characteristics of expensive recording microphones.

Included SCSI-2 50 pin connector
For recording and backing up your projects to external hard disk and removable media such as Jaz, Orb, etc. Also for connection to compatible CDR/RW drives, if you don't have an internal CDR/RW drive installed.
