Core Sound's PDAudio system is the smallest high-res digital recorder
available today.
The PDAudio system is based on the PDAudio-CF Compact Flash S/PDIF
digital audio interface card ($199). PDAudio-CF mounts in PDAs, laptop
and desktop PCs running Windows or Linux, and provides a 24/192 high-res
audio recording capability.
Core Sound's Mic2496 is a fine sounding handheld dual-channel mic
pre-amp/A-to-D converter. It feeds PDAudio-CF a 24/96 S/PDIF digital
audio data stream. Priced at under $500 it's a great front end for a
PDAudio recorder.
Starting at under $500 for an all-digital configuration, PDAudio can
cost considerably less than any alternative high-resolution digital
audio recorder. No other handheld unit is capable of recording at
24/96. The all-digital PDAudio can even be slipped into your shirt
pocket.
Bruce Bartlett (noted recording engineer, microphone engineer, and pro
audio journalist) reviewed PDAudio in the August 2004 issue of Pro Audio
Review magazine. He said: "The PDAudio system offers a new paradigm of
recording. It is compact and low cost, offers pro-quality sound, and has
no moving parts if used with a memory card. Highly recommended."
