Featuring the new Optical Big Bottom® for enhanced low-end response; two independent channels; internal power supply; XLR and 1/4′ I/O; and improved overall sound quality and flexibility, the 204 markedly increases the presence & clarity of almost any audio signal. Unlike an EQ or other brightness enhancers, Aphex’ process recreates missing harmonics without generating significant changes in the actual signal level. It extends high frequencins and enhances the stereo image, resulting in a greater perceived loudness without the introduction of noise due to increased gain. The new Big Bottom process provides deeper, more powerful bass performance without adding more power amps or speakers, and with little or no increase in peak output. The 204 is ideal for a everything from sound recording/mixing & broadcast/production to streaming audio, sound reinforcement, home theater, clubs, and more.THE AURAL EXCITER SAFELY ADDS EXCITEMENTThe Aural Exciter adds dynamically related harmonics to the signal at very low levels and these harmonics add little, if any, level to the signal. Because of the intelligence in the Aural Exciter side chain, the effect is useful over an extremely wide input dynamic range.DYNAMIC EQ ADDS MORE LEVEL FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF ENHANCEMENTDynamic EQ boosts a part of the frequency spectrum when the input is above a threshold. If the input is already high, the additional equalization can result in overloading the amplifier, speakers or both.BIG BOTTOM VS. OTHER BASS ENHANCERSA speaker’s excursion increases with low frequency peaks. If those peaks are increased by a Dynamic EQ and/or a Subharmonic Synthesizer the speaker, at the very least, will fatigue more quickly. This will also increase the danger of the speaker jumping the gap or literally coming apart.Big Bottomadds little or no peak energy to the signal. Instead, it adds density (persistence of a low peak-to-average ratio).

Musicians will appreciate the playback functions of the DR-07, including the ability to loop MP3s and slow them down without changing the pitch. External microphones and sources can be recorded through the mic/line input, and the recorder offers analog limiting, low cut and auto gain setting for great-sounding audio. But for great-sounding recordings, the compact DR-07 is all you need.
Built-in Mic
The DR-07 features a pair of built-in stereo electret condenser mics, for instant, high-sensitivity stereo recordings. Thanks to the adjustable input level, it’s a great choice for quiet or loud applications, from simple songwriting with a guitar to recording a metal band rehearsal.
SD and SD-HC Support
Record to SD cards (including the included 2GB card) or add a little more recording time with high-capacity SD-HC cards up to 32GB.
Simple File Transfer
Using the USB 2.0 jack, file transfer is a breeze. Simply connect to your PC and drag-and-drop.
Mic/Line Input
Use an external microphone or line input device using the 3.5mm line and mic inputs.
The 3.5mm line output works with headphones or for sending to stereos/monitors/etc.
Keep It Clean
The DR-07 has plenty of features to ensure your audio doesn’t end up a distorted mess. The switchable low cut filter helps avoid rumble during field applications or recording bass-heavy material, the analog limiter keeps the dynamics in check, and the auto gain setting helps avoid preamp distortion from the get-go.
MP3 or WAV Recording
The DR-07 writes WAV files at 44.1 or 48kHz, 16 or 24-bit formats. But you don’t always need that for a scratch practice recording, grabbing an interview or lecture, etc. MP3 file recording lets you record directly to MP3 format, from 32kbps to 320 kbps, thus saving you a wealth of space on that SD card.
Variable-Speed Audition
Slow down playback without changing the pitch–handy for learning or studying passages, transcribing interviews, or other uses.
Ultra-Portable
The DR-07 is ready to go anywhere, since it’s powered by two AA batteries (you can add the optional PS-P520 power adapter to power from a wall outlet).
It weighs just 4.4 ounces–with batteries–and is 2.2 x 5.3 x 1.1 inches in size.
