[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]SONY PCM800 DTRS (Hi8 Video Tape) Digital Tape Multitrack Machine.[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]The SONY PCM800 is a SONY version of the TASCAM DA88. Differences are that the transport buttons follow the SONY convention and, more fundamentally, the I/O is :[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Analogue: Balanced on XLRs (TASCAM has unbalanced jacks or balanced on DB25 connectors)[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Digital: AES-3 on DB25 connecors (TASCAM uses TASCAM TDIF format on DB25)[/size][/font]

[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]This machine was used for audio development work by myself in a previous job and hasn't been thrashed day in/out in a working studio.[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Very good condition.[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]With Instruction Manual.[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]If interested I can include DB25 to XLR looms for Digital I/O at £16 (basically the cost for 8 x XLR cable connectors)[/size][/font]

[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Collection recommended on this as I don't have original packaging and it's a bit big 'n' heavy though will courier at cost / buyer's risk.[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Delivery might be possible in Brighton / Sussex / A23 area. Please ask if interested.[/size][/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Would like to see this go to a good home that would get more use out of it.[/size][/font]

Thanks for the Bump. But it seems he is looking for DAT player. This machine is Digital Tape but DTRS uses Hi8 Video format tape and gets 8 tracks on it cf DAT which is 2 track and a different tape format.

Bump to see if any interest here ? Offers considered.
Thanks for reading.
