Tascam FW-1082
FireWire Audio / Midi interface, with control surface features
larger size
630,00 Euro
Four microphone inputs, each with phantom power for condenser mics, record to multiple tracks for later overdubbing or mixdown. The first two inputs have analogue insert points, so you can insert a compressor to keep from distorting or add any external effect to your recording tracks. Up to eight line level signals can be recorded or mixed simultaneously such as synthesizers or multieffects processors. An SPDIF connection allows you to connect digital sources.
The FW-1082 includes a full-featured MIDI interface with two MIDI inputs and two MIDI outputs, so you can connect several synths and controllers. The control surface of the FW-1082 features nine touch-sensitive moving faders that snap to position when you select a bank of eight faders. A full selection of transport buttons, cursor keys and a shuttle wheel allow you to quickly jump to any point of your song without touching a mouse.
The four assignable encoders provide exact control over pan, EQ or aux sends of your workstation software mix. Separate headphone and monitor outputs and controls are also provided. It's compatible with all of the top DAW recording applications, including the bundled Cubase LE 48-track workstation. With its audio, MIDI and control surface features, the FW-1082 is a command center for your home studio.
*Control Surface compatibility for some features is subject to the DAW program's native driver software.*
