THE EVOLUTION OF RECORDING...
The Zoom MRS-1266CD sets your ideas free.
The new MRS-1266CD
Recorder from Zoom is so powerful and easy to use
that with a little practice any musician can
become a composer, engineer, and producer. With the 1266's digital audio
quality and an incredible array of recording tools, anyone can now create
professional-quality recordings with just one incredible machine.
The MRS-1266CD has
extensive features including 10
recordable audio tracks, plus two independent drum and bass tracks, and a
stereo master channel for mixdown. The 1266 features all-new possibilities for
live recording, thanks to six simultaneous inputs. It also features an expanded
programmable drum & bass rhythm section and a CD-R/RW drive.
Each audio track, including the stereo master, offers
10 virtual takes each. This allows the user to record each part ten times, and
pick the best one during mixing.
MRS-1266CD is a hard disk
recorder and a fully integrated digital workstation.
Its input and output stages feature 24-bit A/D and D/A converters, while the
recording section samples at 44.1kHz (with no compression). Songs can be stored
on the 20GB hard drive, or burned to CD-R/RW using the CD-R/RW drive.
The 1266 includes an
integrated and fully programmable drum and bass machine.
The rhythm section has 12 touch sensitive pads (a full chromatic scale) as well
as hundreds of pre-programmed patterns.
The drum section features 127 different sounding drum
kits. Its 26 bass sounds range from slap to synth and
every style in-between. 500 user programmable patterns are available per song.
With the CD-R/RW drive,
pre-recorded drum beats and sample phrases can be imported.
Up to 100 samples can be stored per project, and by cutting and pasting, loops
can be created and dropped in and out or songs quickly and easily.
The 1266 has literally hundreds of customizable digital
effects for mics and instruments, as well as Zoom’s
VAMS™ (Variable Architecture Modeling System) guitar amp modeling.
The 1266 has adjustable EQ and pan controls for each
channel, as well as a complete array of adjustable
24-bit mastering effects such as Reverb, Chorus, Modulation, Delay and
Compression.
The comprehensive
workstation allows storage of up to 999 songs
with 100 marker points per song and 100 sequence and manual scenes per song.
Editing is made easy with a large back-lit LCD screen. Auto and manual punch in
and out, easy bounce mode, A/B repeat function and a scrub/preview function
make the MRS-1266CD a powerful recording tool.
Connectivity is accomplished via two XLR inputs
with switchable phantom power, eight 1/4" unbalanced inputs (two instrument /
six line), stereo RCA outputs, S/P DIF Optical Digital output and MIDI IN/OUT
