FR-AV2 - Overview

The TASCAM FR-AV2 is a compact and comprehensive audio recording solution for videographers, combining enhanced 32 bit float point recording with built in timecode generation to greatly improve efficiency. Internal Timecode allows you to integrate industry standard videography gear, with no need for an external timecode device. And you can wirelessly monitor your audio signals with the optional AT BK2 Bluetooth adapter.

No-Clip Recordings
The FR-AV2's enhanced 32-bit float recording up to 192kHz means you'll never have to scrap a recording due to distorted or weak audio levels. When recording at lower bit depths like 24/16 bit, loud sound sources can cause digital clipping that cannot be fixed during editing. By using dual analog to digital converter technology, recordings are captured with greater dynamic range and clarity - you can increase the level of dialog without creating a distracting change in tone or dynamics.

Premium XLR/TRS Combo Inputs
Connect microphones and professional line level sources directly to the FR-AV2 dual Ultra HDDA preamps. Capture audio with maximum clarity and ultra-quiet with an EIN of 127dBu. In addition, the 3.5mm stereo input supports the use of wireless microphones, lavalier mics, and any other audio sources you might have in your arsenal.

Ultimate Timecode Generation
You'll be able to streamline your videography rig and take less gear to shoots with the FR-AV2. The FR-AV2 generates and reads timecode via 3.5 mm IN/OUT for DSLR cameras and also supports Jam Sync for any external timecode devices. Using the optional AK BT2 Bluetooth adapter, you can also wirelessly sync timecode with supported Atomos Ultra Sync BLUE devices.
