SONY CDRW66 Details
The CDR-W66 has been designed specifically for professional production applications.
In addition to its advanced DSP pre-mastering capabilities,
the CDR-W66 features a unique 32kHz-96kHz range sample rate converter.
This makes the CDR-W66 suitable for recording from higher sample rate sources,
which are becoming increasingly common with the advent of
higher-resolution music recording formats.
A digital limiter and equalizer are available for use when the input signal is
from an analog source, or from the digital AES/EBU input.
- Digital Limiter
The algorithm of the digital limiter increases the average signal level and
smoothly limits signal peaks. The limiting ratio is adjustable up to 100%, at
which setting the gain is increased by 6 dB.
- Digital Equalizer
A 3-band (Bass/Mid/Treble) parametric equalizer provides up to ±6 dB of
correction (in 1 dB steps)
Digital Limiter and Equalizer
AES/EBU, coaxial and optical digital I/Os are provided.
Flexible digital I/O
CD TEXTTM entry
A CD TEXT function allows disc and track titles to be entered using an
