Permanently accessible faders
The Cantar interface is the easiest to use under the most
technically demanding conditions:  • It offers the largest 
display surface of all portable recorders, which simulta-
neously shows every critical recording parameter. • The 
custom designed high contrast displays remain viewable
under bright light (sun, sand, sea, snow, storm), and at
very low temperatures too.  • The swiveling front panel 
always provides the best viewing angle for both on cart
and over the shoulder work. • The large twelve position
MainSelector eliminates diving into sub-menus. • The 
three-crown turret gives instant access to all recording
and monitoring configurations while wearing heavy win-
ter gloves. • Nine rotary faders (analog inputs) plus six 
linear faders (mixdown) devoted to one specific task are
faster to handle than multi-function knobs. • An important 
consideration for desert or high seas work: all of the me-
chanical actuators (faders, sliders, buttons, selectors) are
sandproof and waterproof.
