Tascam HS-P82 is a professional digital multitrack recorder that is ideal for TV and broadcast location work. Tascam HS-P82 is an 8-track digital recorder of the highest quality and features 8 premium microphone preamps. HSP82 has also been designed to withstand the rigors of location recording with reliable, solid-state performance, recording direct to Compact Flash media cards. The standard XLR microphone inputs include phantom power and analog limiting, with trims controlled from recessed front-panel controls.
In addition to the eight individual tracks featured on Tascam HS-P82, a stereo mixdown can be recorded for instant use during editing. Audio is recorded at up to 192kHz/24-bit WAV format to a pair of Compact Flash cards. This solid state media is completely reliable with no moving parts, and you can record to both cards simultaneously for extra security. The Broadcast WAV files include iXML metadata for quick import into nearly any video or audio editing system, either via the USB 2.0 connection or a standard card reader.
HSP82 offers several options for power. It runs on either AA or NP batteries, an included AC adapter, external DC input or a V-mount adapter for Endura batteries. An internal slate microphone is available for naming takes. Functions like a 5-second pre-record buffer, front panel lockout and headphone output alert signal further inspire confidence.
For high-resolution music recording, a set of AES/EBU connectors is available for attaching pedigree A/D converters and preamplifiers. SMPTE timecode in and out, video and word sync are provided. All of this is controlled from a color touchscreen interface which makes operation fast and simple.
HSP82 from TASCAM is built on 30 years of reliable field recording. See how affordable the state of the art can be with TASCAM's flagship production recorder, the HS-P82.
