Model 24

At the heart of the Model 24 is the legendary Tascam’s multi-track recording engine. Delivering quality and reliability as only TASCAM can, the Model 24 enables you to record and play back any combination of 24 tracks of digital audio as well as perform overdubs and punch-ins quickly and easily. 

Record every live gig you play, build your songs track by track, or play along to pre-recorded backing tracks and record the final performance. The Model 24 is designed to work the way you work, with no delays, no limitations and no compromises.

Equally at home in a project studio as on the road the Model 24 is the ideal analog counterpart to your Digital Audio Workstation. With enough inputs to capture an entire band in a single take, the Model 24 provides quick and easy signal routing to and from your computer without having to stop to re-patch and re-set levels. Inspiration won’t wait, and Tascam won’t slow you down.

Featuring 12 Mono input channels and 4 Mono/Stereo channels, the Model 24 is flexible enough to support most groups on stage but compact enough to carry to the gig. Low-noise, high-gain preamps, one-knob compressors (on selected channels), flexible routing, powerful EQ and silky-smooth 100-mm faders combine to deliver a truly dynamic, real-time mixing experience. Combine this with a 7-band EQ, dual monitor sends, and on-board effects making the Model 24 a truly powerful portable mixing solution, ready to take the stage (or studio). No confusing sub menus, no lost presets, just immediate hands-on control and incredible analog sound quality.

Designed for use on the road and in the studio, The Model 24 features four different channel strip configurations. The first two channels feature both an XLR input as well as a switchable line/instrument level jack input. These are followed by a TRS Insert connector for easy patching of a compressor, EQ or other effects. Next are the preamp gain controls (with overload indicator LED), switches for a 100-Hz low-cut and the line/instrument level select switch. And there’s much more to discover.

The Master section of the Model 24 has been designed to for fast and intuitive use during live performance and tracking. Directly at hand are premium-grade 100-mm faders for the main mix, both monitors and sub-mix as well as mute and assignment buttons. Directly above are the controls for the on-board digital effects processor which allow you to add Reverb, Delay, Chorus, Flanger and more to one or more sources and destination.

Following that are the controls for the integrated multi-track recorder, an assignable 7-band graphic EQ and the patch panel for system outputs, headphones and footswitch.

The integrated 24-track digital multi-track recorder makes the Model 24 the ideal choice for performers and songwriters alike. With the press of a button, your entire set is recorded and saved to SD card as individual tracks which can be mixed right there and then or imported into you DAW for editing, overdubs and mastering. And in between live gigs, the Model 24 serves as the ideal songwriter’s companion with full record, overdub and punch-in/out capabilities.

Beyond the ability to simply move recorded tracks to and from a DAW, the Model 24 is also designed as a powerful USB audio interface, complete with premium-quality mic preamps and on-board compression. Ideal for project studios, the Model 24 will provide 24 simultaneous inputs to a computer-based recording system, making it incredibly easy to record multiple musicians simultaneously without the frustration of channel limitations.

The Model 24 also provides incredible flexibility at mixdown by making it simple to work completely in-the-box, or route tracks back through the mixer for 22 channels of hands-on control and true analog sound.
