The ZFR200 is an ultra-compact and lightweight timecode referenced audio recorder.
The ZFR200 records on microSD cards and has a built-in SMPTE timecode reader / generator. The unit can receive timecode via a manual jam, the IFB100 or the ZaxNet 2.4 GHz wireless network.
It's a great replacement for wireless mics on reality television type productions where there is poor RF range, interference issues, or no availabe frequencies are present. With a timecode jam any quantity of ZFR200's can be used in sync all day, the built-in timecode generator is accurate within one frame over a six hour period. The unit is powered with a single AA battery. It can run up to 14 hours using lithium or rechargeable batteries or up to seven hours using alkaline batteries.
Weighing in at just 3.1oz, the ZFR200 is constructed out of a high strength nylon polymer case making it resistant to water and corrosion.
Files can be output as either 24 bit / 48 KHz timecode stamped broadcast wave files or timecode stamped MP3's.
