PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Building upon decades of manufacturing reliable recording devices TASCAM introduces the “first” 

combination Compact Flash / CD recording/playback device; all in single rack space. 

The SS-CDR1 utilizes the latest in solid-state technology combined with the traditional CD player/recorder.  

This rack-mountable combination recorder/playback device supports MP3 file recording and playback to/from 

CD and Memory.  Record, play, and edit (divide, combine, erase, rename) WAV files to and from Memory 

Card.    

Traditional source device features include pitch and key control, auto cue and auto ready, instant start, sync 

record, auto track increment, and manual track increment.   Rear panel analog I/O (balanced / unbalanced) and 

S/PDIF (coaxial / optical) are provided in addition to RS-232 and Parallel control.   

The SS-CDR1 is easy to use and provides enough record/playback time (based on CF card size) to meet the 

demands of a wide range of installation applications where extended record and playback times are required.
