Fostex A-2 reel-to-reel


The A-2 is two track on quarter-inch tape, mastering machine. The standard of the industry. But with one added attraction. The A-2 has sync. Which means you can extend its usefulness. When you need to cut a high quality, low noise, low distortion master, ecord on the A-2 in its normal mode. But when you need to perform a little fixing up, or you want to do some added production (like adding a few ideas at the last minute), use the A-2's Sync mode. It's built-in to give you added performance flexibility for your dollar. Another way personal Multitrack fits the equipment to your needs. And your wallet.
The A-2 packs all the features and functions of our multitrack recorders into a rugged, relatively lightweight mastering machine. It includes LED indicators of peak transient overload in record or playback modes. The A-2 gives you the kind of quality needed to help you produce stereo masters that truly showcase your talent.
