No midi like the 12 track verion, no way of syncing to a daw or other machines is a huge mistake, Every version in this line up should have had midi. Also certain features are lost when using via usb. I applaud the simplicity and ease of basic recording but it feels like a step backwards in 2021

The Model 24 and 16 can sync to a DAW - it is a DAW interface

I wish wish WISH they would make phantom power individually switchable on the channel strip. That would be an invaluable addition to this mixer/interface.

@Peeziejizzle 2 жыл бұрын

I’m a controls and cybersecurity expert. I’m building a modification to cut the phantom to each port. When I finish, I’ll come back to this video and update it. I’m trying to minimize the mod to the internals. Maybe it’ll work without making it difficult.

@njokisasirom 4 ай бұрын

Nice review but you haven't mentioned the phantom power button. If I understood well from other videos, the phantom power can be turned on for all channels only, it can't be used just on separate channels? Thanks

Hi, can you use the sub out as a stereo send? Then return on one of the stereo input channels?

@marcoscamillo6606 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, so you can process the sub stereo with analog gear, if you send all you tracks to the bus and then send it to a compressor/limiter and EQ you'll have a mastered track.

How can I boost the sound up? Do I need to buy an amplifier for my main left and right speakers? Or do I need to buy some powered speakers? This will be for live performances and recording at the same time. Thanks

A main out on a mixer is at line level. Speakers need power to function so yes you need an amp to drive any speakers powered speakers have an amp in them. This is some basic beginner level knowledge on equipment.

@cornermusic5057 4 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately the Model 24 lacks MIDI integration. You could add a dedicated MIDI interface like the TASCAM US-2x2 and set the combination of the two up as an aggregate device in your computers audio/midi configuration settings for use within your preferred DAW.

Global phantom means I can't record with condenser and dynamic mics simultaneously?

@cornermusic5057 3 жыл бұрын

Incorrect. Global phantom means every preamp gets phantom power to power condenser mics. Dynamic microphones don't require phantom power but it will not hurt them. You can use both at the same time. ***Phantom power will destroy most RIBBON microphones (except some of the newer ones which may actually require phantom power). If you have any ribbon mics, it's always a good idea to check the specs and make sure you won't blow it up with phantom power! Cheers

So the built in recorder can operate as a playback engine so it an work as a stand alone POST production mixer?

This is correct. You can record to the unit and then play back and and mix without the need of a computer. Think of it as an upgraded mixer and audio interface to the Portastudio.

Hey :) quick question, can I use the aux and fx outputs as effects sends and then return them to a channel? Was hoping to get me one of these beautys and I would love to use some effects pedals as aux effects, Cheers

@cornermusic5057 4 жыл бұрын

Great question! You CAN do that as long as the effects pedals you are using accept a line level signal. Most guitar pedals are high impedance instead of line level. Also, effects can be used on the first two channels via inserts. This will also be a line level signal and you'll need insert (send/return) cables.

@kevingreer6342 4 жыл бұрын

No, and really you don't need it. Just use a drum pedal (such as the Beat Buddy) with a metronome, at least that's what I do. This way you can dial in how much volume you want or turn it off entirely. They also have standalone metronome pedals for pretty cheap.

Dear Joe Stopka, can we hope for a *Tascam Model 24/96 Phantom Menace*...? Tascam Model 24's 48KHz resolution limitation prevents any payday with the TV/Movie industry, because they require 24/96 at a minimum. They'll happily take 48/192, but I'd be happy enough hitting their minimum requirement. 2) Why did Tascam make Phantom Power of all things a global on/off...? So I can always only use half of my microphones? Its not like condenser mics are hands down better for everything, to where you could just replace dynamic mics... ~20 more switches couldn't have added that much to the price and neither could 24/96 ADDAs... I really wanted to buy one, but it seems Tascam wrecked this otherwise brilliant device with the lack of 2 crucial features :(

@billwhite9703 4 жыл бұрын

@Builder - Dynamics are not harmed in any way by phantom power. These days there are many ribbon mics that are OK with it. As for the 48KHz resolution... good point.

@Pharesm 4 жыл бұрын

@@billwhite9703 Thanks for the info on newer Microphones. After reading this, I was going to check if my mics would be ok (they are not new), but then I decided to purchase an A&H SQ-5, which alleviates both issues and very nearly eliminates latency. When I got it, I was initially miffed, that no printed manual was included. But then the mixer impressed me, by how easy and logical it was to use - for someone who had never owned another digital mixer, I had expected a tough learning curve! But this thing explains itself!!

Hi. I already purchased this machine. Why doesn't Tascam care about the Portuguese language? Why don't the manuals come in Portuguese too? Portuguese is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. The music market is huge in this language. With all due respect, I ask you: Are those responsible for promoting the Tascam brand sleeping? Or are you convinced that everyone has to know English? Did it cost a lot to have this video translated? It would be useful for many thousands of people. Brazil alone has almost 210 million people. Greetings.
