How about a mono 24 bit digital recorder with a condenser mic interface that
can be synchronized to as many other same devices as desired. up to 27 hours
or up to 192 k sample rate, recording time depending on the flash card or
microdrive installed and the sample rate. USB for interface to upload to
computer.

How about for under $300? And what kind of flash card or microdrive
does it take to record 27 hours of 192 kHz mono audio and how much
does it cost? And for that much data, wouldn't it be smarter to use a
faster interface than USB?

Either you're dreaming or teasing. Spill the beans if you have any.

What do you mean 27 hours? 27 hours recording time in mono?

Why mono?

You want a word clock or will mtc do?

What was 27 hours about?

You won't be able to get a flash card or microdrive that can do it, and you
won't be able to for many years, if ever.

Good point. Firewire 2 maybe?

I think the marantz flash recorder would satisfy him if he's looking for
something real.

actually I was thinking 27 hours for 16 bit 48k as absolute maximum
recording time on a cf hd. The most you could get on existing hard drives
would be about 12 .5 track hours at 192k 24bit 250 gigabyte hard drive. I
think that the 3.5 inch ata hard drive is the most economical medium. USB
was only in consideration of the fact that all new pcs have one. An hour of
recording is probably adequate, that drive is under 50 dollars. I think the
drive module should be a seperate thing from the mic preamp digitizer.

Why mono? The physical location of the recorder is to be as close as
possible to the input device. USB? because it is free. Other interface
options are not discounted, such as 10gb ethernet. I am making the
assumption that all signal processing is to be done in the digital domain.
The device that is used for recording should be the choice of the user,
depending on the needs of the situation. Price depends on desired
performance.

I have about 12 years experience in digital design, and some analog. My mic
preamp had a noise floor of about 139dbm.

The trick is the part about "can be synchronized to as many other same
devices as desired." So you have a bunch or mono recorders
synchronized to give you as many tracks as you need. Modular digital
multitrack recorder taken to the exterme - where the "module" is one
channel.

That's why I was asking the question. Maybe a flash card that's
"affordable" in a couple of years can do an hour at 192 kHz 24-bit
mono (about 2 GB).

You might have a look at our PDAudio system. With an external hard
drive (e.g., Addonics Pocket ExDrive with an HP Dual PCMCIA Expansion
Pack) or an external USB drive (when using a Toshiba PDA) you can get
more than 20 hours of recording time at up to 192 KS/s. Two channels
for the moment and mono when Live2496's author at Gidluck Mastering adds
that feature.

Mic2496 is a fine mic pre/A-to-D for it but you could also use a Grace
Designs Lunatec V3.

The only thing you'll be missing is external word clock.

Len, that's something I wish you would consider. Wordclock
chainability could be a very signifigant feature for
relatively low cost options such as yours.

And the Lunatec V3 provides a word clock output.

2 gig flash card is 250 to 300 at the moment. I am going to get one for the
digital recorder that I have now. It has been a while since I bought hard
drives. The last one I bought was 10 gigs for 50 dollars.

Not sure I follow entirely. Do you intend to use the USB to connect to
external drives/readers which function as a recording device?

And for about 25 dollars the flash interface from target, if the output is
usb. I was looking at the pd audio. I only saw a stereo version. 250 dollars
did not sound bad at all.

Word clock would also allow the sample rate to be determined by the clock
generator.

Which ideally would be the first device in the chain should
it not be receiving a clock from another source.

Being able to use an external usb recording device would probably be the
best choice.

Sounds neat. The only issue I see, if you intend to go with mono devices, is
that you would need several different recording devices.

One recording device per channel. It need not be very expensive unless you

Besides you can buy as many or as few channels as you need. And add on as
you need more. You can even buy a couple of spares in case something breaks
at the worst possible time.

A 2 GB compact flash card sells for under $200. A 4 GB card is around $550.

Hitachi just came out with a 10 GB PCMCIA hard drive. It's also selling
for under $200.
