Expanding on the legacy of reliable, professional recording of the PMD560 and PMD570 solid state recorders for permanent installations, Marantz is pleased to present the PMD580, a single rack-space digital recorder that adds advanced network control and automatic archiving to the capabilities of this popular line. Like its line mates, the PMD580 uses proven, stable Compact Flash (CF) as its recording medium, with the inherent reliability of no moving parts. But the PMD580 takes convenience and functionality to another level, incorporating Ethernet connectivity and an internal, browser-style interface that allows centralized control of all operations including scheduling of recordings, machine setup, and file transfer.

Features:
 • Choice of 24-bit or 16-bit Recording onto Compact Flash (CF) Card
 • Ethernet Connectivity and Internal Web Browser
 • Automatic Archiving of Recorded Files
 • Easy Recording
 • MP3 and WAV File Formats
 • Menu-selectable Quality Settings
 • Balanced XLR Inputs and Outputs
 • AES/EBU and S/PDIF Digital Inputs and Outputs
 • RS232 Control Port
 • No Moving Parts
 • FAT32 File Structure
 • Contact Closures with Menu-driven Control
