Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Designed for location audio paired with picture, the FR-AV2 records in 32-bit float at up to 192 kHz and can generate, read and jam timecode through its 3.5 mm connections. Two combo inputs accept microphones, wireless systems or line-level sources, while the 3.5 mm input offers plug-in power for condenser microphones. Camera in/out, headphone monitoring and USB 2-in/2-out interface operation make it practical for shoots, editing handoff and computer or iOS audio work. Its color LCD gives direct access to recording settings and level monitoring.
