| The Alesis MasterLink ML-9600 Master Disk Recorder
is an easy-to-use tool to tackle a tough job. CD24 technology allows
you to record and play back 24-bit, 96kHz CDs using inexpensive CDR
media. Its CD recorder is seamlessly linked with a built-in 40GB hard
disk recorder and essential tools for digital signal processing,
editing, and mastering. Record direct-to-disk using any of the four
standard sample rates (44.1, 48, 88.2, or 96kHz) and choice of three
word lengths (16, 20, or 24 bit). Built-in signal processing includes
equalization, compression, normalization, and peak limiting. Finally,
push one button and burn your master onto CD in either Red Book or CD24
format. CD24 format uses the ISO 9660 format and standard audio file
formats so its discs can be read by Macintosh, Windows, and Unix
computer platforms. Most mastering facilities now accept MasterLink
disks, making it an industry-standard mix-down device!
For live
recording, there's nothing better-record entire performances in
stunning 24-bit/96kHz clarity without ever stopping to change tapes or
CDs.
As a songwriter's tool, the MasterLink is perfect for
capturing every improvisational idea that any songwriting session can
produce. In addition, it is the perfect device to store any
songwriter's entire collection of work. Build a custom demo CD at a
moment's notice!
