TASCAM Model 2400 24-Channel Multitrack Recorder With Analog Mixer & USB Interface
Description
The TASCAM Model 2400 occupies a unique place as both a powerful analog mixing console and advanced 24-track digital recorder. This flagship model builds upon TASCAM’s legacy of bringing multitrack recording to home studios, combining the tactile mixing experience of classic gear with the precision of modern computer integration. Whether tracking a live band, mixing for a show or producing with a DAW, the Model 2400 has the I/O, routing and processing tools to handle it all.
Capture Every Sound With Dedicated Multitrack Recording
At the heart of the Model 2400 lies its 24-track digital recorder, enabling you to lay down full multi-mic drum sets, backing vocal stacks and more on SDXC cards. TASCAM’s industry-renowned High-Definition Discrete Architecture (HDDA) mic preamps ensure colorful analog quality at the source, with 16 available for capturing everything from vocals to room mic setups. Punch-in/out functionality makes it easy to refine solos or fix mistakes, and you can even bounce stems to free up space while retaining your original tracks. The 24-track recorder provides the ideal balance of old-school workflow with modern digital flexibility.
Seamless DAW Integration
The TASCAM Model 2400 is fabulous as a standalone mixer/recorder, but it’s equally adept at interfacing with your computer setup. Its 24-in/22-out USB audio interface streams all channels to your DAW at up to 24-bit/48kHz resolution for recording or mixing within your software. Plus, the Model 2400 is complete with hands-on transport and REC READY controls to operate your music production software—without ever touching a mouse and keyboard. You can even rerecord from the DAW back through the Model 2400’s pristine analog circuitry. This hybrid setup allows you to take advantage of the console’s superior mic pres and summing on the way in, while having your DAW’s editing tools and plug-in processing on the way out. Finally, comprehensive MIDI I/O with sync functionality allows producers to record and sequence with drum machines, synths and more.
Mix Using Advanced Routing and Effects
With 22 channels, five auxiliary sends, four stereo sub groups and main L/R bus, TASCAM’s Model 2400 excels as a fully featured analog mixer. The auxiliary sends provide plenty of options for setting up cue mixes and effects sends, while the sub groups allow you to process sections like drums or guitars together. Across channels 1–12, one-knob compression ensures your mix stays controlled, while 3-band EQ helps you sculpt sonics on the way in. Hook up your favorite outboard gear with inserts on the first 12 channels, as well as a send/return loop on the main output for external equipment. The TASCAM Model 2400 also comes with 16 onboard effects for creative control, including reverb, delay, chorus and flanger.
Streamlined Portability and Virtual Monitoring
While packed with studio-grade features, the Model 2400 remains highly portable for mobile rigs and fly dates. Its rugged, reliable chassis and internal power supply make setup a breeze. Bluetooth connectivity allows wireless mirroring of levels and parameters to TASCAM’s Meter Bridge app for virtual monitoring. With its advanced capabilities and road-ready design, the Model 2400 is a true recording revolution, ready to handle live and studio sound with ease.
The TASCAM Model 2400 represents the culmination of decades of innovation in affordable, professional recording solutions. With its powerful combination of 24-track recording, flexible mixing capabilities and DAW integration, it’s the ideal centerpiece for modern hybrid studios and live rigs. Experience the best of both analog and digital worlds by adding the Model 2400 to your setup today. Visit your local Guitar Center store to get hands-on with this versatile console.
