    DM-24 is even more powerful then other digital mixers costing two and three times more then the price of the DM-24. Two things haven't changed since October of 2001. The DM-24 is still the most powerful the DM-24 or multiple Digimax LTs could be used if multiple IF-AD/DM lightpipe option cards were

There is

Assign channels 17-32 to buss 1-2. 3. Monitor buss 1-2 in the Control Room section. 4. Assign the outputs of EFFECT

    to the digital input of the recorder. The digital output of the recorder would then return to the DM-24 for monitoring and mixing. This scenario is just like having 16 outboard mic pres. TASCAM has many cables and cable snakes available for this situation. Please refer to our Cable Up catalog. Many

    Effects The DM-24 has two internal effect processors. Processor #1 contains the TC Works reverb (over 100 presets) and the Antares Mic and Speaker modeler. TC works reverb and the Antares Speaker modeler cannot be used simultaneously. Processor #2 contains TASCAM effects: • Chorus • Delay • Pitch

    a reverb, for instance. Machine control The DM-24 can control a wide variety of external devices via RS-422 ( P2 or 9pin), MIDI Machine Control or the DTRS remote jack. There is a list of supported devices on the machine control page. The DM-24 can control multiple devices simultaneously. A standard

    The IF-AD/DM option card provides lightpipe I/O and an ADAT sync jack. ADAT sync master layer you can do this for faders and mutes only. This allows the DM-24 to control other devices or other devices to control the DM-24 via MIDI. Again, this uses the "audio faders." There is another separate layer

    There is also an external control page on the DM-24. This is where you can set up separate MIDI fader layers and controller pages. Any combination of fader layers and controller pages can used up to a total of 8. With the MIDI fader layer, fader 1 is MIDI channel 1, fader 2 is MIDI channel 2, etc. A

    HUI compatibility. So now, all of these popular DAW applications can be controlled by a HUI. The DM-24 has now implemented HUI "emulation." This means that these DAW applications see the DM-24 as a HUI and thus the DM-24 can now be used to control these DAW applications in much the same way. This is

    , internal automation. No computer required. The internal automation of the DM-24 is actually more powerful and easier to use then many large frame consoles used in professional studios. The following mix controls of the DM-24 can be automated: • Fader levels • Mutes • EQ settings: • Gain, Frequency

    parameters go into static mode. As soon as the DM-24 receives time code and WRITE is pressed, the DM-24 is ready to write dynamic automation. Move a fader POD controls detect movement in order to begin writing automation, but because these controls are not touch sensitive, there is a "Control sense

    Cascading two DM-24s Two DM-24s can be cascaded together to act as one large console. This requires a cascade option card in SLOT 1 of each mixer. Cascading allows the two mixers to share busses 1-8, aux sends 1-6, the solo buss and the stereo buss. Connections to the control room and stereo outputs

The same is true for saving automation mixes. However, when these files need to be cleared from the DM-24

    This is a TC Works reverb. You should immediately hear reverb in the control room. • For the vocalist to hear the reverb you need to turn and EQ and monitored with additional compression and EQ. This is serious power! Cascading two DM-24s provides: • 32 mic pres • 64 channels (120 inputs to stereo

    choices are: Stereo outputs, Buss 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, Aux 1-2, 3-4 or the control room outputs. • There are only 2 assignable sends and returns available. • The can send 2 channels of data at 96K on one AES/EBU cable.
