System Compatibility
With full professional inputs and outputs, both analog and digital, the
PMD580 integrates easily into any system. Analog I/O includes both
balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connections, while digital capabilities
include both AES/EBU and S/PDIF inputs and outputs. Beyond that, an
RS232C port enables remote control in Crestron and AMX systems, while
an Ethernet connection makes the PMD580 a full fledged network device
for both acquisition and playback.
Convenience Features
The PMD580 includes numerous functional recording and editing features.
Files can be marked and divided either manually while recording, as well as
automatically in predefined increments, making it easier to sort through
hours of recorded materials. Whether used manually, via RS232 control or
via its IP network interface, the PMD580 offers both comprehensive
recording capability and ease of operation, making it the ultimate solid
state recorder for the installation market.
