The CD-400UDAB is a compact-sized, rack-mountable and remote-controllable media player that can play tracks from CDs, USB memory devices, SD cards and Bluetooth devices. It also includes an FM/DAB+ tuner with 20 presets to play music from radio stations and a front-panel mini-jack input to connect devices such as portable music players. The tuner has its own output enabling the user to supply two rooms with different music signals, for example.

Remote control is possible by the included wireless RC-CD400 and by serial control via the built-in RS-232C port. This all-in-one CD player is suitable for a wide range of applications, from background music in touring, restaurants or small stores to use in public facilities.

Multiple playback sources from a compact unit

TASCAM CD-400UDABPlay files from CDs, USB memory devices and SD cards

The CD-400UDAB is ideal for contractors where playback of a wide range of media and file formats is required. You can play audio CDs as well as audio files in WAV, MP3, AAC and WMA format stored on data CDs, USB memory devices or SD/SDHC cards. Playback modes (continuous, single and random) can also be combined with repeat playback to suit a wide range of situations.

TASCAM CD-400UDABWireless playback from Bluetooth® devices

Audio files can also be played from Bluetooth devices such as smartphones, tablets and portable music players. After a device has been connected for the first time, a wireless connection can be made quickly by simply pressing the pairing button. This enables easy playback of audio files without fussing with cables or file formats.

TASCAM CD-400UDABExternal input connector for other sources

A stereo mini AUX IN connector on the front panel enables the CD-400UDAB to play audio from portable music players not equipped with Bluetooth.

TASCAM CD-400UDABFM/DAB+ tuner to play your favourite radio stations

The CD-400UDAB includes an FM/DAB+ tuner with 20 FM and DAB+ presets each. An independent tuner output allows simultaneous playback with other media to supply different rooms, for example.

Audio from an audio CD or from the tuner can be dubbed to an SD/SDHC card or USB memory device using only the CD-400UDAB – no need for a computer! Just press the dubbing button and play the audio to start dubbing.

When the incremental play function is enabled, you can skip to the beginning of the next track by pressing the PLAY button on the unit or the remote control during playback. When you press STOP during playback, the unit skips to the beginning of the next track and stands by. This is useful in situations such as presentations where tracks are not played to the end.

TASCAM CD-400UDABThe CD-400UDAB offers professional balanced outputs on XLR connectors apart from consumer unbalanced outputs on RCA connectors. By providing much better signal-to-noise ratio, balanced connections are indispensable when routing output signals over longer distances like in fixed installations.

TASCAM CD-400UDABThis player includes an RS-232C serial connector for remote control by a media controller, for example. An Ethernet card (IF-E100) is available as an option to allow remote control through a network using Telnet.
