Marantz is no stranger to innovation. For decades, we've written and rewritten the book on professional field recording and we are doing it again with the new CDR420.

Upload to a PC through USB 2.0, or burn CDs right there in the field. Edit ID3 information and rip MP3 discs. Copy redbook or MP3/.WAV data discs. Error check and defrag the hard drive using USB and standard Windows XP disc utilities. You can even name files and access commands with a standard PS/2 keyboard.
