TASCAM HD-P2 Owner's Manual

Introduction

The HD-P2 is a compact, lightweight Portable High

Definition Stereo Audio Recorder. It uses standard

Compact Flash memory cards to record in mono or

stereo, 16- or 24-bit, at samples rates from 44.1kHz

to 192kHz. An advanced clocking system is included,

with the ability to chase external timecode and lock to

an outside word clock or video reference signal. The

HD-P2 supports digital and analog audio inputs and

outputs, and has a built-in microphone and speaker.

The HD-P2 records audio as standard Broadcast Wave

Files non-destructively. This means you can record

a file, rewind, and record another file at the same

location without fear of losing the first recording. A

built-in, dynamic Edit Decision List orders file play-

back based on file record times. A file edit screen is

provided for auditioning (and editing) of individual

files.

Supplied accessories

In addition to this manual, the HD-P2 has been packed

with the following:

AC adaptor............................................................. 1

IFFF1394 cable...................................................... 1

Shoulder strap ........................................................ 1
