FOSTEX FR2-LE Portable Solid State Sound Recorder

Brand new, boxed. Price INCLUDES VAT.

Pedigree Portable Field Recorder

The FR-2LE is a compact field memory recorder for professional use offering 24bit 96kHz recording in the industry standard BWF file format. It has a good pedigree given Fostex's previous success with their DAT portables (PD2 & PD4) and latterly with their solid state FR-2 and its optional full timecode facility.

Now with their latest FR-2LE, they have an even more compact offering for high quality field recording, interview recording (MP3 mode also available), or simple film/broadcast audio recording.

The FR-2LE is equipped with two professional phantom powered XLR microphone inputs (XLR-Jack combo) complete with precise control over the recording level. It features a 1 take = 1 file recording system which eliminates overwrites and its 2 second ‘pre-record’ buffer means there should never be a missed take or lost soundbite. There’s also an MP3 mode and built-in stereo microphone.

The FR2-LE has become very well known for the high quality of its microphone preamplifiers which, along with decent microphones, can deliver the most exquisite audio performance. Perhaps this is the main reason so many FR2-LE recorders are used by wildlife sound recordists who are reknowned for demanding the very best. 

MAIN FEATURES

Long Battery Life
The FR-2LE can run for up to 4 hours on 4 x AA Alkaline batteries and up to 8 hours with the optional NiMH BATPACK battery pack. A choice of two BATPACK chargers are also available - one for the mains and one that also charges your pack from a 12V car outlet.

Extended recording times
Over 6 hours @ 16bit 44.1kHz recording on an 4Gb CompactFlash card.

Professional inputs
Dual XLR inputs (XLR-Jack combo) with top quality microphone pre-amps, trim control and phantom power. Analogue out is provided on phono (RCA) connectors.

BWF or MP3 recording
Record up to 24bit 96kHz audio.

Tough construction
Manufactured from high-grade materials and specifically designed for professional location recording.

Fail Safe Recording
In addition to a 1 take = 1 file system to eliminate overwrites, the FR-2LE also features Auto File Closing which closes files at one minute intervals, thus preserving the data in the event of a power failure.

USB 2.0
The USB 2.0 port allows direct connection to PC and MAC for easy file transfer.
