DP-24SD Now On Sale -- $100 Off (new)

[Old No7]

Wow -- $100 less than what I paid just over a month ago...

At the online retailer SW (think "candy-liquid" as a clue to the name).

Thanks -- I wasn't sure if naming them violated any rules or not.

Dang, sure wish I'd gotten that price...

If you bought it from them, you should ask them for that price.

There's also a used DP-24 up for $300 on Reverb: https://reverb.com/item/54249536-c14753-tascam-dp-24-digital-portastudio

Those are hard to get at that price!

Man...that's a staggering price difference from the DP32 ($399 vs $649)....just for a handful of extra tracks. I get that the DP32's stereo tracks can be chosen as "stereo" or a single "mono" track....but if you did (for example) configure the DP32 to be like the DP24 (with 12 MONO tracks)...you are left with 6 stereo on the 24 and 8 stereo on the 32. Hard to justify the $250 difference at that point. Maybe a new model coming? I dunno. Cheers.

p.s. I am actually on "old" member (dating back quite a few years). Not sure where all my old posts went (not that there were that many). No worries.

Keep in mind it’s a DP-24, not a DP-24SD. In other words, it’s the older model with MIDI and CD burner. That’s why the price is remarkable; they’re a rare find as it is.

But yes, the DP-24SD has been selling brand new for $399 lately ($100 off), with no corresponding discount for the DP-32SD that I’ve seen. And used they can go for around $300 (the price I got mine for, and it’s perfect!).

I don’t believe a new model is on the way; that’s discussed elsewhere on the board. I just hope these will continue to be available. I’ve completely fallen in love with mine. Mixing is easier on a DAW, but for tracking and getting the creative juices flowing, this is the ticket for me!

At one point I was thinking of selling my DP-32 but then I came to my senses.

+1 to that! It's the reason I got my Tascam DP-24SD "Digital Audio Scratchpad".

Hi. Sorry...I was referring to the current price difference between the 24sd and 32sd at Sweetwater (and other sites). I realize a CD/Midi equipped DP model is gonna fetch a bit more on Reverb and eBay. The "sd" suffix is something I lazily omit when referring to these units sometimes. Apologies. Still...it is an odd price difference anomally between to the two SD units. Glad yours is working out for you. I was originally leaning toward the 32sd but (given the price difference) think I'm gonna go for the 24sd now. Cheers.

$850 Down Under grrrr we always get ripped off more than the exchange rate would add, and that is a discounted price !. I got the 32sd for $1050 , down from $1499 . And another for one of my bandbuddies hehe
