Info up on the Zoom NA website now (with several videos): Zoom R20 Also listed as coming soon for $399.99 at Sweetwater (cheaper than I thought it'd be): Zoom R20 Sweetwater The R16 is now discontinued. Makes me wonder if the R8 and (more importantly) the R24 will be updated to this new...

Not sure. Nothing official on the Zoom NA website yet. Seems kinda odd. They have a whole line of "live mixer/recorders" and the usual line-up of "R series" multitracks. This does not seem to add a whole lot (other than the touch screen). I would have liked to have seen aux sends (for external...

16 track R20 with color touch screen. Looks cool...but...all 8 inputs should be combo...and very limited I/O. Only on the Zoom Japan website currently. Gonna try to post a "Google Translated" link (if the Zoom website asks you to change language...click the "X"): Zoom R20 Cheers.

Quite welcome, Chili! Thanks (btw) to whoever moved that huge pile of Zoom related topics here. Makes the forum look comfortable already. Cheers!

Excellent (and many thanks)! We'll see if we can get a few Zoom owners alerted to this new forum. Cheers!

Thanks for the reply, prankster. You confirmed pretty much what I suspected about the unit. More research to follow. Cheers!

Any help on this one appreciated, folks. Not a big deal (either way)...but I'm just thinking that from a visual standpoint the metering (mono vs stereo) per track might make monitoring levels a little easier (at least for me) if I were to change a few stereo pairs to mono. Cheers.

Howdy. Been mulling over picking up a used DP32. I just had a couple of questions for you owners regarding changing stereo tracks to mono tracks. I think that if I got one of these units I'd probably like to set it up as 12 mono tracks and 8 stereo pairs. I realize (via page 40 of the manual)...

It's finally on the Tascam website now:Tascam DP-24SD. Definitely no MIDI ports. I still see that strange "patch" on the back of the unit where the midi ports "should" be. Weird. Oh well.

Me too. I honestly can't figure it out. I'm wondering if it is the Gibson "buy-out" of Teac that has pushed the Portastudio to the "back burner". SD storage is great but MIDI is still a very common musical workflow/dynamic....workstation keyboards, drum machines, groove boxes....etc. Hardware...

Just got an email reply from Tascam on the DP-24SD. There are NO MIDI PORTS (i.e. it's just a DP-32SD with 24 tracks). This is disappointing news (and Tascam is clearly not listening). Guess I'll scratch this one off the list. Back to eBay for a "first Gen" DP or a Neo. Cheers.

Hmmm...now I'm more confused than ever. Looks to be the new unit on Adorama as the color scheme has been slightly "tweaked". I saved the photo of the rear unit and zoomed in on it. It looks like midi ports are/were there (can kinda make out a circular shape) and then a rectangular photoshop...

I guess you missed this: Thread: New Tascam DP-24SD. The photo (at Sweetwater) STILL shows the original DP-24, however (no "SD" on the logo). Tascam hasn't updated their website with the new model either (which is strange). Oh well. Cheers.

It's also listed on Gearnuts (whatever that is): Tascam DP-24SD. I think Tascam/Teac got bought by Gibson fairly recently. The Tascam website used to be COMPLETELY "on top" of everything they offered (in terms of highly detailed product information). The last year (or so) not so much. I hope the...

WOW! Congrats on the 99 cents score! I'd completely forgotten about this thread. I scored a mint 134b myself about six years ago (for dirt cheap) and even got a "new old stock" RC-134 remote control with it. Great unit. It keep it tucked away but do fire it up for some nostalgic 4-tracking when...
