KORG D 1200
portable digital recording studio designed for guitarists and
also available D1200CD












From your initial idea to final mix burnt onto an audio CD usingthe portable digital recording studio Korg D 1200 designed for guitarists and songwriters.
Also available is the D1200CD, which comes from the factory with the CDRW-1x8 drive already installed.

Front panel
The controls are arranged to follow the recording process from start to finished CD. Even the angle of the backlit 240 x 64 pixel LCD display can be adjusted for comfortable viewing.

The D1200 uses high-performance balanced preamps on all analog inputs. Two XLR inputs provide high-quality mic preamps and are equipped to deliver +48V phantom power. A dedicated guitar input jack is also provided. The S/P DIF digital input automatically converts incoming 48 kHz and 32 kHz data into 44.1 kHz for recording.

Mixer section
The D1200’s 16-channel, 4-bus mixer section provides a separate three-band EQ on each analog input and each playback channel: high and low shelving EQ, and a mid-range peaking EQ with adjustable center frequency. The fader, EQ, pan, and effect settings of the mixer section can be stored in one of 100 scene memories.

Recorder
The D1200 records and plays back either 16 or 24-bit 44.1 kHz audio data. The D1200 uses no data compression, so the sound you put in is exactly the sound you get back. A maximum of all 12 tracks can be played back simultaneously and up to four tracks can be recorded simultaneously. Each track contains eight virtual tracks, giving you a total of 96 tracks per song.

Effects, including REMS Modeling
The D1200 provides three independent effect systems (44-bit internal processing). Up to eight insert effects can be assigned to individual channels. Two master effects provide polish to your mix, and the final effect can add the EQ, compression/limiting, etc. to the master L/R channels. Combinations using up to five of the 98 available effect algorithms provide 128 insert, 32 master, and 32 final effects. You can edit any of these 192 preset programs and save them to any of the 192 user program memories.
For the guitarist, bassist or singer/songwriter, the D1200 simplifies the initial set-up process. Just turn on the Modeling mode and choose Guitar, Bass, or Mic. The D1200 will automatically route the effects to your input, assign the appropriate modeling effects to the three dedicated knobs, and will arm the first two tracks for recording.

Track editing
D1200 is packed with non-destructive editing tools. It’s easy to move sections of your tracks or song around using the Copy, Insert, Swap and Delete commands. Pro-level functions include Normalize and Time Compression/Expansion.

40 GB hard drive plus USB connector
The D1200 contains a large 40 GB hard drive, which offers 122 hours of recording time (at 16 bit recording, one track). Within the hard drive, 2 GB of space (FAT 16 format) is automatically allocated as a USB drive that can be accessed directly from a computer by simply connecting the two devices with a common USB cable. By saving song data or .WAV files in this area, you can easily backup or restore song data, import or export .WAV files, or load system data. This makes it easy to move your songs into computer-based applications, and to even email song files via the Internet.

Internal CDRW-1x8 Burner
You can easily install an optional CDRW-1x8 drive into the D1200, allowing you to backup and restore your songs and effect data, import/export .WAV data, and create your own audio CDs. Also available is the D1200CD, which comes from the factory with the CDRW-1x8 drive already installed.

More Features
The D1200 can synchronize with a PC or other external sequencers, recorders or rhythm machines that support MIDI clock or MTC. The D1200 includes many other features like an Auto Save function, built-in auto chromatic tuner and a high-quality PCM tone generator that provides 96 different metronome patterns and 215 rhythm patterns.
