With the Zoom HD16CD, musicians can record songwriting sessions or live performances directly to the HD16CD internal hard drive, move the audio files to a computer's digital audio workstation and use the recorder as a control surface for easy editing and mixing. The HD16CD ships with Steinberg's Cubase LE so everything you need is included.
The recorder features eight balanced XLR-1/4" combo inputs with phantom power. Two of the inputs can switch to high impedance inputs allowing direct connection of guitars and basses, so users can plug into Zoom's famous guitar and bass amp modeling capabilities in the on-board processor. The HD16CD also comes with multi-effects such as reverb, delay and compression for use with instruments and vocals.
The HD16CD also boasts the largest hard disk in its class (80GB) and is also the only unit with velocity-sensitive pads for the on-board drum and bass sequencer/sampler. A super-fast CD-RW burner comes installed as well. Using the sampler function, users can add original samplers to its drum kit section, and its expanded sampling memory provides sampling time to 60 seconds. Files are recorded as .wav files for easy importing and editing on computers.
