Zaxcom Maxx Zax-Max 6 Channel Audio Recorder
Excellent used condition 8 track digital audio recorder. Supplied with 8 AA rechargeable batteries and USB powered charger.
The Zax-Max has 6 analog inputs, 4 with mic pre amps featuring NeverClip™ and 2 AES digital inputs that can be used with AES42 microphones. All these inputs can be mixed into a two-channel output bus over two sets of output connectors that can be individually configured as line, mic and consumer output levels as well as a balanced mono and tape out. There are four AES direct outs + an AES stereo mix. The two-channel balanced camera returns doubles as balanced line level inputs.
Max comes standard with the ability to record eight track on a CompactFlash card. Files can be recorded at up to 24 bit / 192 KHz with a dynamic range of 137 dB.
