- Tascam 2488 mk2
Since 1988, Tascam has made leaps and bounds with each multitracker they've released. I considered the 2488mk2 the ultimate for what it could do in 2008 when I got mine. I felt like the only thing that could out do this is if they made one with a terabyte drive, 48 track capability and unlimited USB functionality. But the DP24SD has done the moon walk backwards by 1. removing midi, 2. sync functions, 3. the effects combo the 2488mk2 had and most importantly: #4 Out of the box user friendliness.
It took me 24 hours to get it to bark...something completely unheard of. I had to dive into Phil Tippings' tutorial videos to crack the safe. There is definitely an opportunity here for a rehash of the unit. I would recommend combining the best qualities of the old (2488mk2/Neo)with the new(Dp24sd) for bigger bang outta the production without sacrificing the bells and whistles.
Tascam is my Brand and the it gets the job done...So don't think I'm dissing..I'm a die hard hands on Tascam user for 30 years and I know somebody did wrong. Make the DP24SD2 The Hail Mary of Bells & Whistles. Put that good shit back in the machine.
