Marantz PMD661 Digital Audio Recorder (PMD 661) - Free 4GB Card

FREE 4GB CARD INCLUDED FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY

Introducing the Professional level Marantz PMD661 digital audio recorder, a highly robust, versatile professional handheld PCM / MP3 recorder, which joins a range that has produced some of the most revered units in the industry including the PMD620, PMD660 & PMD670.

Improving on the specifications of the PMD660, the Marantz PMD661 features both balanced mic and balanced line XLR inputs, as well as unbalanced line outs on RCA connectors and a secondary unbalanced line in on 3.5 mm mini jack connector.

Also included for the first time at this price point within the Marantz range is a high resolution 24-bit / 96 kHz recording option (PCM). The PMD661 utilises SD flash media, the most widely available and fastest developing flash memory format. Compatibility with SDHC media means that cards currently up to 32 GB in size can be used.

High capacity media storage on the PMD 661 is matched by six hours recording time from four AA Alkaline / Ni-MH batteries. Drag and drop file transfer is supported via the USB 2.0 port.

The Marantz PMD661 sports a professional broadcast feature set alongside major new design innovations, including a significantly smaller footprint than the PMD660, an improved top facia layout with fewer buttons and more highly developed use of multi-functional operation. Measuring just 165 x 93 x 36 mm (6.5" x 3.7" x 1.4"), is 1/3 smaller than the PMD660, and combined with the improved control layout it ensures comprehensive single handed operation. The new feature set includes an integrated high quality stereo condenser microphone array for 'point and shoot' operation, and a highly visible 128 x 64 dots matrix OLED (organic LED) display.
