Tascam 2488 Neo Multi track Digital Recorder
The Tascam 2488 Neo Multi track Digital Recorder is the successor to the successful 2488MkII, probably the cheapest 24-track digital portable studio ever built for home recording.
With the 2488 Neo digital recorder you can simultaneously record up to eight sources. Each song can contain up to 250 virtual tracks, from which 24 tracks for a mix can be selected.
On the Sub mixer you add to up to eight more input sources during the mix for a total of 32 available mixing channels. A special master track offers additional space for the final stereo mix, allowing you to directly create an audio CD or a WAV file that you export.
The 2488 Neo recorder has four XLR inputs with switchable phantom power and four more balanced TRS inputs, of which one can be directly connected to an electric guitar.
For each track, each input has a three band equalizer and three effect channels that are rich in sound capability and dynamic control.
With the editing of the 2488 Neo digital recorder, you can edit your audio tracks with high precision.
Among other features available are the capability to copy and paste, cut, and move. All tracks can be duplicated and up to 999 steps reversed and restored from the buffer memory. Alternative intakes allow the best tracks to be selected from multiple takes of a recording session. And if you need more disk space, you can archive song data onto recordable media such as CD/CD-RW (one time record or rewritable compact disc) or utilize the USB (Universal Serial Bus) connection to copy onto a computer or memory device and restore if necessary.
