Tascam Model 2400
Analogue Mixer. Live Recorder. DAW Interface.
The 24-Track Flagship Recording Console
22 channels, 24 tracks, one solution – from performance to recording, Model 2400 redefines what you can do with a studio recording and live mixing console. With more Aux sends, four stereo subgroups, MIDI/MTC and many more advanced features, the Model 2400 is the new flagship of the Tascam Model series.
Streamline Your Mix Process with Advanced Onboard Processing
The versatility of the Model 2400 doesn’t affect its mixing capabilities in the slightest. With per-channel compression, multiple sub groups, and master stereo bus processing including compression and EQ, you’ll have the pro-level mix control you need in any scenario.
Taking your project from tracking to a final master on the Model 2400 couldn’t be simpler.
22 Channels and 24 Tracks, One Solution
With comprehensive 22-channel mixing capabilities, the Model 2400 is an ideal studio and live mixer for everything from larger combos and jazz ensembles to orchestra and choir ensembles. And when it comes to recording, no additional interface or computer are required.
Insert Professional Processors and Effects
Insert points on channels 1-12 allow you to easily integrate a studio rack full of processors and effects units. And, in addition to the onboard Master Bus processing, a send/return loop on the Main output allows you to connect external mastering gear such as compressors, EQs, stereo imagers and sonic exciters.
Ample Aux and Sub Outputs
With 5 Aux sends and 4 stereo sub groups, Model 2400 handles advanced mixing duties with ease. Create more monitor mixes without sacrificing an aux for effects. Connect multiple pairs of studio monitors for checking your mixes.
In your studio or on stage, Model 2400 delivers the comprehensive connectivity and routing you need.
Professional Recording Capabilities
Model 2400 seamlessly integrates multitrack recording with studio and live mixing. With the ability to record 24 tracks (22 inputs plus the stereo master) of high-quality audio direct to SD card media, Model 2400 is a powerful recording solution even if you’re a DAW-less producer.
