Marantz CDR420: MP3/CD Recorder Workstation

Marantz is no stranger to innovation. For decades, we've written and rewritten the book on professional field recording and we are doing it again with the new Marantz CDR420. Never before has a CD recorder been so flexible or so powerful. Record to hard disc as .WAV or .MP3. Perform cut-and-paste editing in the field. Upload to a PC through USB 2.0, or burn CDs right there in the field. Edit ID3 information and rip MP3 discs. Copy redbook or MP3/.WAV data discs. Error check and defrag the hard drive using USB and standard Windows XP disc utilities. You can even name files and access commands with a standard PS/2 keyboard.

The Marantz CDR420 is the right recorder to capture and record almost any application. Recording a court proceeding? All parties walk away with a standard, non-erasable audio CD. Recording a concert? Sell CDs minutes after it ends. Need more than 80 minutes on a CD? Record and burn in MP3 mode. Need to use good mics? The Marantz CDR420 has dual XLRs with +48v phantom power. Don't have any mics? The Marantz CDR420 has one built-in. There's more, but sit back. The list is long.
