Just used for the first time in a studio situation my new tascam dp 24sd,had it for a while but getting my head around it as it is different to daw however very impressive,the overall quality is excellent.

"Welcome To The Show. We have lovely prizes for you, just for partic...."
Sorry. I watched a lot of TV as a kid.
ANYway: congrats on your new DP. They're so ossum - I've been a PortaStudio-head for over 20 years, and they're STILL ossum. I have 3 right now.
You'll find the forum here boundlessly helpful. Most importantly: read the "sticky posts" (the ones at the top of every forum topic), and learn to use the "search" function - that'll answer 97% of your questions.
As for truly mystifying problems, ask/post about it...some of the guyz here are genuine rocket-surgeons when it comes to studio-gear. But as mentioned: pretty much everything you'll come up against has already happened to most of us, and been addressed either in a thread or in the sticky-posts.
Good luck & have fun!
