Fostex FR-2LE

Field Recorder (Compact Flash)

Designed to meet the needs of both professionals in the field and training sound recordists, FR-2LE seems like it's got the lot. Record in WAV Format (BWF) at 24bit 96kHz quality, or switch to MP3 mode. Two phantom powered XLR microphone inputs (XLR-phone combo), plus in-built 'memo recording' stereo mic. 1 take = 1 file recording system eliminates overwrites, and the 2 second 'pre-record' buffer means there should never be a missed take.

$999 (RRP)
