    DP-24 - I love it (so far)

    Bill - thanks for posting all the good news about the DP-24! There are a few of us, myself included, waiting to "pull the trigger" on one, but have been waiting to see some reviews, and have some questions answered. Unfortunately, I've never even used the effects insert in the 2488, as I prefer...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    Hi and welcome, goadma! I was also a long time member of the Tascam Forums, and learned a lot there when I first got my 2488 some 6 years ago. I have seen a number of folks here that I recognize from there, and I'd imagine other "stranded" TF users will also migrate in this direction. It's very...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    Hi Gdub, I have no experience with the Neo, but can attest that the original 2488 Mk I is a very quiet unit, more than capable of making good quality recordings...for examples of the work my friends and I have done with mine over the past 6 years, feel free to have a listen at our web site -...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    Sorry to hear that the replacement Neo had the same issue, Gdub....at least, that's what I'm getting from your "Dr. Seuss" post! If you are going to take the plunge and get a DP-24, you know that steelyfan and I will be curious about the monitor mute question we've been discussing. It looks like...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    Hi steely, I did some more manual digging last night, and I think we'll be able to use the sends to route tracks to external devices as we've been doing, and of course bringing the returns back to open tracks is a simple matter of assignment, as they're just a line level signal. I scoured the...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    Hi Steely - great name! We share many of the same questions and concerns about the DP-24, but I wanted to specifically thank you for mentioning one that I'd overlooked - the lack of a "Mute" button on the monitor control! We do have a drum kit with a 4 mike setup on it (a la Glyn Johns), as well...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    Hi Gdub! The DP-24 had just been launched at NAMM when the Tascam Forum members (of which I was one) got the word that the founder, Bruce Heidorn (Dr. Who) had passed away after a long illness. There was initially talk about his family or other forum admins/mods keeping the forum going, and...

    Help please: Tascam 2488 Neo owners......is a slight hum normal ?

    I'm also watching for some actual user reviews on the DP-24 before I pull the trigger on one. Luckily, my original 2488 Mk I is still working like a champ (and has no hum, by the way). I'm not overly crazy about the track assignment on the DP-24, where it's effortless on the 2488, and your...

    New Tascam DP24

    Another 2488 (Mk I) user here, watching for actual user reviews of the new DP-24....I think they did away with the MIDI drum patterns in the Mk II and beyond, which is a shame...it's a very handy tool for working out parts, which can then be replaced by an actual drummer. The DP-24 seems to...
