Sony PCM-2700 DAT Recorder
Description
The PCM-2700 is the professional version of the DTC-77ES.
The key features of this model are the four head design and also the four direct drive transport motors.
The standard PCM-2700 included digital coaxial I/O in the form of RCA phono connectors (75 ohm) (IEC-958 type 1) .
Several audio companies offered a mod to change these to AES/EBU(110 ohm) balanced digital I/O (XLR).
Later Sony upgraded the PCM-2700 to the PCM-2700A which included both the (IEC-958 type 1) connectors and also the AES/EBU balanced digital I/O (XLR).
Includes time search and 3 level dimmable display.
Suited for simple program transmission at broadcasting stations and simple recording/playback use at recording studios
