About the MR1000 Mobile Recorder

The Korg MR-1000 is a professional-grade mobile recorder designed for studio and location recording, broadcast journalism, live performances, and archiving. It features high-fidelity 1-bit/5.6MHz recording technology, which is a future-proof format used in SACD, delivering pristine audio quality. The unit includes top-quality microphone preamps with phantom power, built-in limiting, and combination XLR/1/4" inputs. It supports multiple recording formats including DSDIFF, DSF, WSD 1-bit formats, and multi-bit PCM (BWF) up to 24-bit/192kHz resolution. The MR-1000 has a built-in 40GB hard drive for ample recording time and USB 2.0 connectivity for fast file transfer. It runs on AC power or a rechargeable lithium polymer battery, making it ideal for field use. The included AudioGate software for Mac and PC allows conversion of 1-bit recordings into WAV and AIFF formats, real-time playback, gain control, and fade effects. The device features a clear backlit monochrome display with level meters and dedicated record level knobs for ease of use. Despite its plastic chassis, it offers a robust and user-friendly interface with professional-grade sound quality.
