FTP Client function enables automatic upload or download of audio files from the server

The unit is equipped with a LAN terminal for easy network connection to an FTP client, enabling you to upload recorded files from the SS-R250N side or download sound files from the server. As the SS-R250N also also acts as an FTP server, you can also upload / download from a PC side without having to physically exchange SD cards.

Event List for recording, playback, download and other functions enables automatic operation based on time

The Event List function contains an auto-play feature deisgned for audio files such as background music and announcements, perfect for use in a retail setting or restaurant. This Event List can also be used to to schedule recording and file upload which makes the TASCAM SS-R250N the perfect recorder for town hall meetings, board room installations and government jobs.

iOS / Android control apps available for transport operations and remote control of various settings

When operating on the same network, the SS-R250N can be controlled by an iOS / Android mobile device for remote status updates and transport control.

Supports SD memory card (SDXC supported / 128GB maximum) and USB flash memory

In addition to the front panel USB port, the SS-R250N will record to – and play back from SDXC cards, as well as SD/SDHC with capacity of up to 128GB.

Dual SD memory card slots permit both Backup and Relay recording

Dual SD card slots can be used for backup recording, which records the same data on two cards simultaneously, or chain recording in which the system automatically begins recording on the second SD card when the first card has reached capacity.

Automatic file closing process to avoid data loss if there is a sudden power loss during recording

While recording, the TASCAM SS-R250N automatically saves and closes the file every few seconds to safeguard against data loss.

Link Playback function allows two units to operate in tandem

The link playback function allows syncronized operation of two units, connected using S/PDIF. Ideal for critical situations where a backup is required, both units will record in sync, but also be able to operate independently if the need arises.

XLR and RCA analog I/O as well as AES/EBU and S/PDIF digital inputs/outputs

The SS-R250N is equipped with a wide array interface options to make it fast and easy to integrate into any touring, install, or live sound application.

Equipped with both a D-sub15pin parallel terminal and an RS-232C serial terminal for external control, the SS-R250 can integrate quickly and easiy into virtually any system.

Optional IF-DA2 interface card supporting Dante 2ch Input and Output

With 2-channel Dante support, the TASCAM SS-R250N can be easily incorporated into any Dante network audio environment and also makes the SS-R250 one of the least expensive Dante interfaces available.

Optional RC-SS150 control unit with Flash Play mode

By connecting the optional RC-SS150, you have instant acccess to up to 92 sound effects, commercial spots or music cuts.

Playback and recording features similar to industry-standard SS-R200 / SS-CDR200
