Metacorder enables users of CoreAudio hardware running with Mac OS X to create a full function audio field recorder on a Powerbook.

Metacorder replaces complex DAW software, rich with functions not
relevant to field recording, and instead offers vital location-sound specific functionality such as 30 second pre-record, mirroring and iXML metadata entry, all in a very intuitive and easy to use package.

Beyond the simple task of recording multichannel audio into Mono, Poly or Dual Poly Broadcast Wave files, Metacorder allows dual-media recording, automatically writing the same data to 2
drives. Metacorder also features a background mirror which automatically copies recorded files onto slower media such as DVD-Ram as soon as you press stop. MetaCorder can also burn
completed soundrolls to DVD-R or CD-R in the background whilst you continue to record.

Metacorder reads LTC timecode through a spare Audio input, and another input can be used for a slate mic, routed to all tracks when the slate button is pressed. An M-S decoder allows stereo
monitoring of M-S configured microphones. Metacorder can also playback recordings whilst you continue to record new ones, offering on-set playback functionality. Numerous other location
sound specific functions, position MetaCorder as an ideal for cart-based sound recording, or post-production transfer.
