Introducing "Pattern Editor" for the PS-02


ZOOM's 10th anniversary model of the original 9002.
World's Smallest Recording Studio





Digital Recorder

The PS-02 is a new generation recorder using memory card and offering 3 audio tracks, a stereo drum track and a bass track for a combined 6 tracks of creative power. Even better, up to ten virtual takes per audio track let you hone a song until you get it just right. Maximum recording time with a 64MB card is about 67 minutes for all audio tracks combined, in mono and long play mode. This gives you enough leeway to work in comfort. Auto punch-in/punch-out makes editing parts of a track easy and quick. Digital bounce lets you combine two tracks on one, or three tracks on one or a stereo track. Digital technology ensures that the sound stays crisp even after multiple passes. The three faders of the unit assume various functions and let you adjust the mixing balance between input, drums, bass, and audio track 1, 2, and 3 as easily as with a mixer. The PAN setting for each audio track controls the left/right positioning. Stereo recording of a CD or MD source input via the AUX IN jack is also possible.

Drum & Bass Machine

Rock, Pop, Jazz, Blues are just some of the styles you'll find in the PS-02. Techno, Country, Bossa Nova, Latin, Metronome...with as many as 200 preset rhythm patterns are available at the touch of a button, wherever and whenever you want. Various patterns for intros, fill-ins, and endings let you build your own song configurations. You can program drum patterns and bass chord progression for up to 100 songs. 50 template songs are already contained in the unit, which can be used for practice or as stepping-stones for your own creations. The PCM sound source uses the same technology as the ZOOM Rhythm Track series for super realistic sound. By downloading new data and patterns from the ZOOM web site (www.zoom.co.jp), the possibilities for future expansion are limitless.

Multi Effector

The PS-02 features 50 built-in effects for all sorts of instruments, with the capability to use 6 modules and 8 types simultaneously. The patch memory with 60 preset and 60 user patches lets you create and store your own variations. For Guitars, the Variable Architecture Modeling System (VAMS) developed for the GFX-8 Guitar Effects Processor is used, letting you record with that genuine amp modeling sounds. Convenient vocal recordings are no problem with a built-in microphone. Also a high-quality Mic-preamp with a direct connection of a dynamic microphone, allows high class recordings of vocals and any kind of instrument. Dedicated effect patches are provided for electric bass, acoustic guitar, and keyboards. Of course, the famous ZNR(ZOOM Noise Reduction) and a cabinet simulator are also built in. For track down or presentation, special Mix-down effects allow professional mastering techniques.

&MORE

The unit can operate continuously for over 4 hours on four AAA type alkaline batteries, plus palm size portability lets you be creative no matter where you are. The intuitive display with backlight is easy to read even in dark surroundings. An integrated auto-chromatic tuner makes the PS-02 as a complete all in one processor. The supplied 8MB Smart Media card contains a demo song for checking out the unit right away. A belt clip is convenient for use in the field or on stage. The supplied AC adapter AD-0006 is great for those extended works.
