Tascam introduces the FR-AV4, a compact 4-track audio field recorder featuring a built-in mixer, timecode generator and HDMI sync. Designed for video production, journalism and location recording, the FR-AV4 offers 32-bit float recording with dual A/D converters, enabling the capture of audio at up to 192 kHz without clipping or gain staging concerns. Four Tascam Ultra HDDA mic preamps on XLR/TRS combo inputs and a 4-in/2-out mixer make it possible to record six tracks (four mono sources plus a stereo mix). MS configurations and ambisonic microphones can also be used. The unit supports multi-camera workflows with LTC jam sync, HDMI timecode, record triggering, 4K/8K passthrough, and cascading of multiple recorders via HDMI. The FR-AV4 also functions as a 6-in/2-out USB-C audio interface, supporting 24-bit and 32-bit float formats.
