The Roland R-1000 48-track recorder/player is an intuitive stand alone, dedicated recorder/player designed to work with the V-Mixing System in any live event or production. You can also connect and use the R-1000 with any digital console that has MADI output capabilities by using the Roland S-MADI REAC MADI Bridge.

The R-1000 is based on REAC and eliminates the bulk and noise susceptibility typically associated with analog snakes and replaces it with Cat5/6 (Ethernet/LAN) cable.

The R-1000 is a dedicated recorder capable of recording up to 48 tracks of 24-bit audio within a single unit. Its digital interface uses REAC technology and connects to devices such as the V-Mixer, Digital Snake and MADI Bridge. The recorded data is stored on removable HDD in Broadcast WAV format enabling a smooth transition to any DAW. This dedicated recorder provides stable and reliable operation capturing live audio at any event.

The R-1000 can playback up to 48 tracks simultaneously. Data can be loaded from external devices, and with markers, playback can be started at any designated point. By using prerecorded material, rehearsals can be conducted without all the musicians present. With two analog monitor outputs and a headphone output, the merged sound from selected tracks can also be monitored.

Yopu can construct a system by combining REAC devices such as the V-Mixer and the Digital Snake. Connect to any digital console with the use of the optional S-MADI Bridge.
