⤢ zoomThe MX-5050-B photographed face-on beneath the white headline OTARI MX-5050-B BROADCAST RECORDER on a black ground: two large reels, the head assembly with the OTARI badge, the transport pushbuttons, and the two VU meters between level knobs on the electronics panel.
Otari's new MX-5050-B continues the proud heritage of the MX-5050 Series, a recorder now extensively used by television and radio broadcasters worldwide. The new version has all the proven features of the earlier pace setter, including front adjustable bias and record EQ, built-in test oscillator, edit and cue, splicing block, motion sensing, selective reproduce, and adds many new features all its own: ultra reliable TTL switching, noise free inserts, three speeds in field-selectable pairs of 15/7½ or 7½/3¾ ips, 24 dBm headroom with 28 dBm output into 600 ohms, dc capstan servo with ±7% speed control (to match program length to a time slot), peak reading LED plus standard full sized VU meters, return to zero memory, and LED function indicators, among others.
Add these features to a 66 dB S/N ratio and a frequency response from 30 to 22,000 Hz ± 2 dB at 15 ips and you have a machine that competes with those costing thousands of dollars more.
Compare features and benefits, compare performance, compare our track record for reliability. Call Ruth Pruett at 415/593-1648.
