Product Information
CD-RW Recorder CD-RW4U
The CD-RW4U is the first CD-R-/CD-RW recorder from
Tascam that can be used both as an independent audio
recorder and a practical CD-RW drive on a Macintosh or
Windows computer. In recording studios and small radio
stations, for example, it can be used for generating audio
CDs directly from the mixing desk or for copying CDs from
other media such as DAT, MD or CD. On the other hand, it
can be used as an external CD drive on a computer for
playing and recording audio or data CDs, with a single USB
terminal for transferring the entire data including audio
material.
The CD-RW4U offers a host of useful features which are
not found in conventional CD burners. For example, it has
a sample rate converter for recording digital audio sources
which have different sampling frequencies than a standard
CD (44.1 kHz), analogue and digital input level controls, a
recording buffer which guarantees that even the first
milliseconds of a track are recorded, and a convenient
”multi-dial” which makes it easier to set and confirm para-
meters. Audio material can be manually or automatically
divided into tracks (auto track function), fade-in and fade-
out over a given time interval is actuated at the touch of a
button, and, last but not least, a wireless remote control
facilitates easy operation of the CD-RW4U from various
locations.
The CD-RW4U has asymmetric analogue inputs and
outputs for connecting semi-professional audio equip-
ment. 20-bit D/A and A/D converters guarantee excellent
quality recording and fidelity. The system is also fitted with
coaxial digital inputs and outputs for recording and play-
back on suitably equipped digital audio equipment.
The CD-RW4U is the perfect synthesis for processing and
storing important audio material and electronic data.
