The Digital Audio Stationary Head or ''DASH'' standard was a Digital Audio tape format using Open Reel s capable of recording 8, 16, 24 or more channels of Audio on a one-inch or half-inch tape. The data is recorded on the tape linearly, with a stationary Recording Head , as opposed to in the DAT format, where data is recorded helically with a rotating head. The audio data is encoded as linear PCM with strong burst error correction, allowing the tape to by physically edited, e.g. by cutting and splicing, and played back with no loss of signal. The DASH format also allowed the recording of low-quality cue tracks Out-of-band from the program material. |
