Tascam 2488neo 24-Track Digital Recording Workstation

Tascam 2488neo is 24-track Standalone Digital Audio Workstation with CD-RW Drive, 19 Faders, Eight Inputs, and Mastering Effects. Sporting eight mic inputs, it's one of the few recorders able to record and mix a full band. A new batch of mastering effects joins the reverb, amp simulation, compression and EQ processing to create and burn finished-sounding CDs in a stand-alone unit. With Tascam's simple interface, great-sounding preamps and chart-ready effects the 2488neo is the ultimate 24-track production machine.

A powerful standalone recording solution
The 2488neo features an 80GB hard drive, enough for hours of 44.1kHz/24-bit recording. Eight microphone inputs, four with XLR and phantom power, can be assigned to any track for recording large ensembles. A reverb effect, multi effect with guitar amp simulation, and up to 9 compressors are also included.

Hands-on operation
In addition to its great features, standalone operation, and powerful recording capabilities, the 2488neo offers incredibly intuitive, hands-on operation - the best of digital and analog worlds, combined! Its bold new look makes the 2488neo fit perfectly into any home, project or pro studio. If you choose to expand your recording or editing operation or want quick and easy data backup, this Tascam unit includes a high-speed USB 2.0 computer connection.

Mastering effects
A new mastering effect onboard the 2488neo includes multi-band EQ, compression and limiting for professional-sounding mixes which can be burned to CD or transferred to computer through the USB 2.0 jack. Built for musicians who want to record without needing a computer, the 2488neo continues Tascam's legacy of easy-to-use Portastudios for home recording.
