BS EN 61595-2 discusses multichannel digital audio tape recorder (DATR), reel-to-reel system, for professional use with a focus on format B.
BS EN 61595-2 is the second part of the BS EN 61595 multi-series on a multichannel digital audio tape recorder that applies to 24 to 96 channel digital audio recording on 12,7 mm or 25,4 mm wide tape (hereinafter called tape), with stationary heads, for professional use.
BS EN 61595-2 defines the mechanical and electrical characteristics necessary to ensure the interchangeability of programmes, recorded as digital audio signals on magnetic tape, in professional industries.
BS EN 61595-2 on multichannel digital audio tape recorder is useful for:
Digital multitrack tapes, with their enormous data storage capacity, are an ideal medium for such an implementation. BS EN 61595-2 provides a method that described herein is also applicable to any other medium of two tracks.
BS EN 61595-2 discusses digital encoding, tape speed, tape width and the number of digital audio channels, tape winding, reel and hub, allocation and dimension of magnetic tracks, assignment of magnetic tracks, emphasis, and main track recording. This will help you to understand multichannel digital audio tape recorders.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 61595-2, you can enhance multichannel digital audio tape recorder’s effectiveness and efficacy and manufacture a standardized product.
