A hard disk recorder is a type of direct-to-disk recording system that uses a high-capacity hard disk to record digital audio or digital video. Hard disk recording systems represent an alternative to more traditional reel-to-reel tape or cassette multitrack systems and provide editing capabilities unavailable to tape recorders. The systems which can be standalone or computer-based typically include provisions for digital mixing and processing of the audio signal.
