Connect when you want
With four XLR/TRS combo inputs and an additional 3.5 mm stereo input, quickly connect external equipment and start recording right away. Support for wireless microphones, lavaliers and other audio sources ensures broad compatibility within your setup. Extremely quiet operation with an EIN of -127 dBu and Ultra HDDA preamps guarantee clear sound quality. 32-bit float recording also ensures wide dynamic range and minimal distortion. The built-in 2-inch LCD gives a clear overview of your recording, so you always keep control of all important parameters.

Built-in timecode generator
For video productions, timecode is essential to keep projects efficient and in sync. This recorder features an integrated timecode generator and a 3.5mm input and output for easy interfacing with DSLR cameras. With full Jam-Sync support, you'll work seamlessly with existing external timecode equipment. With the optional AK-BT2 Bluetooth adapter (not included), wireless timecode synchronization is also possible in conjunction with Atomos UltraSync BLUE systems. This keeps recordings consistent and clear no matter where you are filming.
