The MX5050 BIII has long been the standard in 1/4” 2 track analog recorders. It features an optimized three-head design and transformerless balanced inputs and outputs to
provide superior frequency response, low distortion and high signal-to-noise performance under the most demanding conditions. Record setup adjustments can be
made from the front panel, and a convenient built-in oscillator provides test tones for
calibration/maintenance.

The direct drive capstan motor is servo-controlled, and an integral microprocessor governs tape handling, including dynamic braking, motion sensing and transport logic. A built-in miniautolocator provides three onetouch cue-point memories, search zero, and a repeat function. The tape timer display shows tape timein Hrs/Min/Sec., as well as tape
speed in inches per second and percentage of tape speed.

Capstan speed can be varied by ±20% in 0.01% steps using the built-in “pitch” control.

Time-code editing using a synchronizer is accomplished via the 37-pin Otari standard parallel interface.

The extremely rugged mechanical construction includes a 1/4”deck plate with cast aluminum side panels and steel support members.

All circuit boards are designed to swing out or unplug for quick service access.
