The TC-D5ProII is the latest version of the popular D5 series from Sony. Since the D5ProII is sold through Sony's Pro Audio Division it is a bit more expensive than the D5M. The ProII is mechanically identical to the TC-D5M. In many respects it is also electronically the same with two major exceptions. In place of the 1/4" mic input connectors found on the TC-D5M, the ProII uses true balanced XLR inputs. Also, the TC-D5ProII is designed to only use normal and chromium tape formulations. It will not accept metal tape cassettes like the TC-D5M.
Like the TC-D5M, the ProII recorder also features Dolby B noise reduction, switchable peak limiter, switchable 20db mic attentuator switch, VU meters, built-in playback speaker, separate headphone amp with level control, a disc-drive capstan system and manual recording gain controls.
In our modification we provide a sync mode selection switch inside the cassette compartment, internal 60hz. crystal generator and adaptation for our Micro Resolver. The recording controls are separated to allow for independent gain adjustment of each channel. A headphone patch is supplied to prevent listening to the sync signal during extended monitoring. The recorder can still be used for standard stereo non-sync recording and playback.
As part of our total system approach to the TC-D5ProII Crystal Sync Recorder
we are manufacturing a completely new
Micro Resolver to allow for automatic transfers of your
location cassettes directly to videocassette, fullcoat mag stock or for
digitizing into your computer. By owning your own Resolver the complete
acceptability of your sync sound material by any transfer house in the country
is assured. We provide a very liberal discount on the Micro Resolver if it
is purchased at the time of the sync recorder or conversion.
The complete package includes carrying case with neck strap, AC adaptor, 10' XLR microphone cable and headphone patch. The TC-D5ProII is also available with a 50hz. crystal generator.
Price: $1700
With Micro Resolver: $1950
