Tascam CC-222 SL MKII

SL MKII CD/RW-recorder/cassettedeck pitch en key control

The CC-222SL MKII is the latest generation of Tascam’s highly popular combination CD/cassette recorder. Like its predecessors, the CC-222SL MKII records to both CD and Cassette media at the same time and features unbalanced analogue inputs and outputs, coaxial and optical digital I/O, and an RIAA phono input for recording directly from a turntable. The second line output can now be switched to tape-only output or CD/tape output, with priority to the tape signal.

The Time Track Increment feature automatically adds a CD track ID every few minutes, ideal for event recording and sound sampling. Track marks can also be be added by signal level or by manually pressing the record button. Besides that, the CC-222SL MKII adds a couple of features users have been asking for, including MP3 CD playback and a power-on play function.

The CC-222SL MKII is rugged and reliable, fully featured and simple to use, which is why it is the first choice for theatres, municipal halls, schools, and other contractor and consumer applications.
