chrisnewton Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Sounds like a big gamble for Sony. The original Walkman was a huge, expensive gamble for them too, and look what happened with that. Is this a case of sizzle over steak? We'll see. Time to get those "High Def Audio" stickers out, stick 'em on my FP33 and raise my rates. I smell a Rube coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Rose Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 And will Dolby do away with the compression in theatrical tracks? I wonder how many of those "lossy sucks, I'm a purist" folks think that movies sound good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigF Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 DCP has done away with compress audio in theaters Dolby Atmos plays .wav files from what I've read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wielage Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 And the new Sony HD Walkman player is $700 and only holds 128GB of music. That's a high price tag for not much storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Duffy Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 This is industry wide. http://hometheaterreview.com/agreement-reached-for-hi-res-audio/ Products that meet an extended list of quality and feature specifications can display the Hi-Res audio logo on their marketing and product. TASCAM 's DR-22WL and DR-44WL, US-2x2 and US-4x4 are our first products under this new category, which makes it easy for end users to determine whether a product fits their needs.

Jay Rose Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Tom, the published specs for the 2x2 line out are indeed worthy: at 96k/24b sampling, -0.2 dB up to 40kHz., .003% THD, -95 dB crostalk and -101 dB other noise (well, those last three are ~17 bit performance). But with pages of specs on your site, there's nothing about response or THD+N for recording. Can you tell us how the mic pre and ADC performs?

Tom Duffy Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Looks like the translation is missing some detail. Those figures are combined analog in -> analog out. All our specs are measured/published to JEITA standards. From the tascam.jp webpage: THD 0.003% Mic/Line IN -> LINE OUT, 1kHz, reference input, max output S/N 101dB MIC/LINE IN -> LINE OUT, Gain Min Crosstalk 95dB MIC/LINE IN -> LINE OUT, 1kHz - Tom (TASCAM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
