ZAXCOM SHIPS 16-TRACK HARD DISK AUDIO RECORDER
The Deva 16 provides fault-tolerant, multi-disk recording with
automatic file recovery to safeguard audio even in the event of an
unexpected power failure. The system provides eight analog mic/line
inputs with 48V phantom power, four additional analog line inputs,
eight analog inputs, and eight digital direct outputs. A 16-channel,
24-bus digital mixer is built into the unit, providing EQ, notch
filter, compressor and delay functions on each channel.
The unit records to three internal storage mediums or directly to an
external FireWire drive without the use of additional computers. It
also offers direct Avid and Pro Tools compatibility helping to
streamline post production. Because metadata can be entered into the
Deva directly through the unit's color touch-screen display,
information on scenes and takes are imported automatically into the
post system along with the audio files. Audio pros can refer to the
Deva Sound Report, a new feature that generates an Excel file of all
metadata that was entered during production.
