APPLICATIONS

SPECIFICATIONS

The 112RmkII is the most advanced bidirectional cassette deck on the

market. The 112RmkII was built with the same attention to detail and

focus on quality as the venerable 122mkIII, a commitment that is always

appreciated not only when the unit is first installed, but even after

logging years of steady use.

The 112RmkII has all the interfacing necessary to make live production a

breeze. Whether it's calling in a sound cue, recording longer program

material, or just bringing in background music or music beds, the

112RmkII is the machine of choice. Since this cassette deck also employs

separate record and reproduce heads, the 112RmkII is also an excellent

mastering recorder, allowing the user to monitor from tape.

Reference mixes are often dropped onto cassette since the media is far

easier to work with than CD-R, and more ubiquitous than DAT or MiniDisc.

The 112RmkII's separate record and reproduce heads mean you instantly

know what your mixdown sounds like on tape. No more waiting for the

playback afterwards to know if you've overloaded the tape or not.
