D-90 &D-160

8 & 16 Track Digital Multitrack

hoosing to ‘go digital’ is fast

becoming one of the easier

equipment decisions you have to

make when considering a new

multitrack.

But choosing the right digital

multitrack can be somewhat more

difficult.

Before this decision can be made,

you have to be sure that your

chosen recorder excels in four

critical areas: audio quality,

expansion, synchronisation and

editing.

DDIIGGIITTAALLQQUUAALLIITTYY

Both the D-90 8 track and the D-160

16 track offer industry standards in

digital recording specification.

Using a combination of both 18-bit

& 20-bit converters, the machines

provide for CD-quality audio with

a choice of 44.1kHz & 48kHz

sample rates. Above all, the audio is

non-compressed meaning no

compromise in quality.

The optical digital I/O provides

dual functionality by offering

stereo in & out of any pair of tracks

via S/P-DIF plus a full 8 channel I/O

via the industry standard

ADAT™ format.

This allows for import and

export of digital linear recordings

to the Fostex non-linear format for

ease of editing as well as utilising

an ADAT™ compatible multitrack

for near real-time backup and

restore.

EEXXPPAANNSSIIOONN

At the heart of the design

philosophy of these two

multitracks is the ingenious

use of ‘caddy-held’ hard

drives as a recording medium

- increasing available

recording time is simply a

matter of changing and

inserting new hard drives.

SCSI-2 devices such as

SyQuest, Jaz, MO, etc. can

be used as another fast

backup and restore

solution.

SSYYNNCCHHRROONNIISSAATTIIOONN

Both machines are able to act as

master or slave with the ability to

chase to incoming MTC; MTC plus

S/P-DIF or ADAT™ (optical); or run

free after MTC lock. In addition, by

adding the optional Model 8345

timecode board the D-160 can

chase and lock to incoming LTC

with the option of referencing to

video or word clock.

EEAASSYYEEDDIITTIINNGG

Being non-linear format machines,

full and easy to operate copy, paste,

move and erase (with undo & redo)

editing is available across all tracks.

Your choice is now more simple.

At least you know it’s going to be a

Fostex.

Hard drives can be exchanged in a matter of

seconds by use of a key-lockable caddy system -

just like changing a reel of tape.

Important projects can also be archived to DAT,

external SCSI-2 media, ADAT™ compatible

machines or stored on cost effective E-IDE hard

drives - all in native digital format.

he D-90 is packed with

the professional features,

innovation and usability you have

come to expect from Fostex.

JJUUSSTTLLIIKKEETTAAPPEE

The transport keys mimic a regular

multitrack with the addition of

being able to instantly locate to ‘0’

or the end of a ‘virtual reel’ as well

as auditioning the clipboard by

holding STOP plus PLAY, REWIND,

or F FWD.

Familiar functions available such as

5x fast forward and rewind in play

mode with full audio monitoring as

well as conventional wind and

rewind buttons which “spool” at

30x normal speed.

Six further locate points are derived

from Clipboard IN/OUT; Auto

Return START/END; and Auto

Punch IN/OUT. Once programmed,

these allow for Auto Return and

Auto Play. Auto Punch IN/OUT has

a handy rehearsal mode to audition

your ‘take’ before committing to

disk. Cue points can be set by using

the jog shuttle wheel to locate a

desired point or, ‘on-the-fly’ by

hitting the HOLD/

key while you

listen to your track.

IINNTTEELLLLIIGGEENNTTFFEEAATTUURREESS

The D-90 features ±6% vari-pitch

enabling precise pitch changes

without any loss in audio quality

and enhanced synchronisation

to the outside world

by chasing to

incoming MTC for

sequencers and computers,

with or without external word

clock (via S/P-DIF), and with near

instantaneous lock-up times.

ADAT™ Digital Interface or

'Lightpipe' is fitted

allowing real-time transfer

of ADAT format

recordings to be loaded into the

D-90 for non-linear editing and of

course the easy interfacing with the

latest digital mixers.

The optional Model 8338 SCSI-2

interface card provides for fast

backup and restore to a large range of

SCSI-2 removable cartridge devices

such as MO, PD, Jaz, SyQuest, etc.

Finally, there’s the option of adding

balanced I/Os at +4dBu with the

Model 5040 card to complement the

standard -10dBV connections on

RCA connectors.

Unlike many digital recorders available

today which insist on using

compression techniques as a trade-off

for extended recording time, the D-90

uses 18-bit & 20-bit converters at

sample rates of 44.1kHz & 48kHz to

offer 8 tracks of true CD-quality

recording and playback demanded by

professional users.

All to and from caddy-

sing technology and

ergonomics successfully proven in

previous Fostex digital

multitracks, combined with the

Fostex hallmarks of innovation and

clear ergonomics, the D-160 sets

new standards in affordable

professional digital multitracking.

The D-160 records true CD-quality

uncompressed digital audio using

18-bit & 20-bit converters to

caddy-held standard E-IDE hard

drives - all under the full control of

Fostex’s new Disk Management

System - FDMS-3 (meaning that, for

example, up to 615

minutes of mono

recording is possible on a

3.2Gb drive).

RREEAALLUUSSAABBIILLIITTYY

Usability plays a major

role in the design of the

D-160 with features

present such as a

removable front-

as a remote control, a

further 8 'ghost tracks' for multiple

takes of one or more tracks, three

time bases (ABS, MTC &

bar/beat/clock) and the ability to

have up to 64 tempo and signature
