In a nutshell
Aaton, before Cantar, first approached sound with synchronization. Bolstered up by their strong establishment on shooting sets and having been much blessed by operators and camera assistants for the ergonomics of their movie cameras and accessories, Aaton has now decided to occupy the space left vacant by Swiss manufacturers on the portable digital recorder market. The Cantar-X integrates high-level analogical electronics in an over the shoulder device without giving up the quality of input transformers. Mixing famous and tested Swiss ergonomics with the most recent computer technologies, the Cantar-X provides from one to eight tracks, with five high quality microphone inputs, four line inputs and six digital AES-EBU inputs, on internal and external hard disks as on various external and internal media. Providing three wide circular LCD modulometers and large control knobs, it is brought up in a very compact, strong and waterproof case, with protected connectors. Power consumption is adjustable and autonomy astonishing. The Cantar-X is in permanent evolution thanks to the reactivity of Aaton engineers to the numerous remarks, criticisms and requests of sound mixers, either concerning on-set user interface or dealing with post-production format recognition.
