PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The CD-RW700 is an incredibly powerful machine for its price, taking
advantage of our CD-RW technology developed specifically for the pro
audio industry.
Personal Studio - Project Studio
In personal and budget oriented studios, many users end up accepting
limitations of consumer gear and wasting a lot of time figuring out how
to get around those limitations. With the CD-RW700, you can put your
focus back on production, because this recorder has your solutions.
The CD-RW700 breaks away from traditional development of a pro-audio
piece. Rather than try to figure out how to add a button or some rack ears
to get more money out of a consumer CD-RW machine, we started with
our top of the line CD-RW2000 and kept the functions you need most.
For starters, a RAM buffer is built in for accurate sync starts and auto ID
modes. Further, adjustable parameters on the auto ID logic allow you to
adjust your threshold for the auto ID level, so the machine will identify
the breaks between tracks, but not add extra ones in soft passages. A
digital gain adjustment and digital fade in/out capabilities are also built-
in for boosting low recordings, or adding a smoother fade in/out to a
song. Audio quality was a top priority with the CD-RW700; you'll find
24 bit A/D and D/A converters for the smoothest sound available.
Saving the best for last: you do not need to track down consumer CD-R
media to use this machine. The ability to use regular CD-R and CD-RW
media will save you a great deal of time and money.
DJs - Live Sound Applications - Show Control
In applications where the CD-Recorder is going to get a lot of regular
use, you can take comfort in the fact that the mechanism in the
CD-RW700 is a TEAC data drive, not a flimsy plastic tray. The TEAC CD
technology is among the best in the world in reliability, performance and
durability. Plus, the drive searches incredibly fast so you don't have to
wait to find your cue points.
The CD-RW700 is also great for live and show control systems, since the
same mechanism can serve as a reliable CD-Recorder for assembling
sound cues for a show or presentation, then act as a lightning fast CD
player that can be controlled through infrared controllers for automated
presentations.
