Start, Stop and Replay from Anywhere
The wireless remote control for the W24 makes recording practice
sessions much more convenient. You can position the W24 at the optimum
recording location and operate it from your playing position, so you
can record and listen over and over without having to move
24bit/96kHz Recording With Highest Quality X-Y Stereo Microphone
The microphone on a pocket recorder is extremely important in
determining sound quality, and the sensitivity and coverage of this X-Y
dual mic assembly are truly superior. It takes full advantage of the
recorder's 24bit/96kHz resolution.
8 Hours of PCM Recording with One Battery
The W24 far outdistances the competition with up to 38 hours of PCM
recording and 56 hours of MP3 recording from a single alkaline AA
battery. Now you can concentrate on the music, not the battery.
High Capacity Memory with microSD Cards
The W24 has a built-in 2GB flash memory, providing 3 hours of PCM
recording time (MP3: 13.5 hours). Using the optional 2GB microSD memory
card doubles this amount. You can also use higher capacity cards.
Peak Limiter for Optimum Music Recording
When bands or orchestras hit high volume peaks, recording quality can
suffer. The W24's peak limiter instantly detects these high levels to
prevent overload and distortion. Yamaha worked with musicians in
studios to ensure that the limiter function is optimized for music
recording.
Memorize Various Recording Settings
You can use the Scene function to memorize the settings for a variety
of recording situations, such as choir practice or interviews, and
assign names to them. Then each time you want to use a certain setting,
you can recall it instantly.
Onboard Speaker
The built-in speaker provides a quick and convenient way to check your
recordings.
Ready When You Are
When the group is ready to start, no one wants to wait for the
recorder. With the W24, recording can begin just 4.5 seconds after
pressing the power button.
Tuner and Metronome
Tuner and metronome are built-in for added convenience.
