Korg D16XD Xtended Definition 16-Track Digital Recorder
With the Xtended Definition series, Korg brings a whole set of professional features to its D-Series of digital recording studios. A stable of advanced mixing, editing, and recording features are complimented by a huge internal hard drive, a built-in CD-RW burner and a variety of performance-enhancing options. The D16XD Digital Recording Studio offers 96 kHz/24-bit resolution, up to sixteen simultaneous record tracks, and mix automation-equipped to bring your creative ideas to life.

Brilliant Ergonomic Design
The D16XD is designed to provide unparalleled ease of use, the highest-quality audio recording and processing available-and to look good doing it. The clean, stylish lines and uncluttered control surface are preserved thanks to the huge TouchView display that organizes a wealth of parameters and controls into easily accessed on-screen menus. This display features enhanced resolution, a four-tone gray scale, and tilts up for easy viewing. The improvements to the display make it ideal for audio editing functions. Four dedicated knobs below the display provide permanent real-time access to the effects parameters. Similar dedicated knobs and buttons for the individual EQs and sends are located to the right of the display.

Supreme Audio Quality
Xtended Definition means that this digital recorder features uncompressed, 96 kHz / 24-bit audio recording. Resolutions of 48 kHz and 44.1 kHz (both at 24- and 16-bit depths) are also supported. Digital processing quality remains at high levels throughout the mixer, effect, and output stages. But digital excellence is not the end of the story. The Korg D16XD also provides eight channels of fully programmable analog compression to the inputs, delivering a richness of tone and dynamic processing that cannot be duplicated by digital technology.

Modular Input Design
Eight XLR jacks, each with individual phantom power supply, only hint at the input possibilities. Eight 1/4" balanced jacks are also provided. Each input features a variable trim knob and a 24dB pad to accommodate almost any input source. By adding the optional eight-channel analog input board (AIB-8) the D16XD can reach its full potential of 16 inputs. The optional analog compressor board (ACB-8) provides the same high-quality compression to these extra inputs. For added convenience, the front panel offers a dedicated guitar input.

Tracks Galore
The D16XD support up to 16 tracks of simultaneous recording and playback. Each track contains eight virtual tracks. New to the Xtended Defin
