Comprehensive onboard processing
The Tascam Model 2400 offers advanced onboard processing capabilities that streamline your mixing workflow. Each channel features dedicated compression, allowing you to fine-tune dynamics directly on the console. The master stereo bus includes compression and EQ, providing the tools needed to polish your mix to a professional standard. This level of control means you can take your project from initial tracking to final mastering without needing additional outboard gear.
The inclusion of these features ensures that whether you're working in a studio or handling live sound, you have all the necessary tools to achieve a polished, professional mix.
Versatile recording and mixing solution
The Model 2400 excels as both a mixing console and a recording solution. With 22 analog input channels and the ability to record 24 tracks directly to an SD card, it caters to both traditional and modern workflows. This makes it an excellent choice for bands, orchestras, and ensembles who need to capture high-quality recordings without the need for a computer interface.
Additionally, the 24 in/22 out USB audio interface allows seamless integration with digital audio workstations, providing flexibility for those who prefer working in a digital environment. The console's DAW transport control and REC READY functions enhance this integration, making it a truly versatile tool for any recording setup.
Extensive connectivity options
Connectivity is a key strength of the Model 2400, with 5 Aux sends and 4 stereo sub groups providing ample routing options for complex mixes. This is particularly useful for creating multiple monitor mixes or connecting various outboard gear without sacrificing valuable aux sends for effects. The console also features insert points on channels 1-12 and the Main bus, allowing you to integrate external processors and effects units seamlessly.
The MIDI in/out and USB MIDI interface further expand the console's capabilities, enabling synchronization with other MIDI devices and providing comprehensive control over your setup.
Enhanced live performance features
For live sound applications, the Model 2400 includes features designed to simplify and enhance performance. The talkback XLR microphone input ensures clear communication with performers, while the two headphone outputs provide flexibility for monitoring. The PFL/AFL function with LED indication helps you manage and monitor signals effectively, ensuring smooth operation during live events.
Additionally, the Bluetooth input supports both AAC and SBC codecs, allowing you to stream audio wirelessly for playback or integration into your live mix. This combination of features makes the Model 2400 an excellent choice for live sound engineers seeking a reliable and flexible mixing console.
