TASCAM DM-24 Installation and Use v 2.0 Manual Addendum - Page 4

DM-24 version 2.0-Release notes-I/O-OUTPUT selection New mixing (snapshot 001) • TDIF 1, TDIF 2, and TDIF 3 assigned to channels 1 through 24 (return). • MIC/LINE inputs 1-8 assigned to channels 25 through 32 (input). • Assignable send/returns 1 through 4 set as send/ returns for Aux 3 through 6. Assignable returns assigned directly to ST via the ASSIGN page. • Effects (1, 2) returns assigned directly to ST via the ASSIGN page. • All channel buss assignments off, and channels assigned to ST with direct off. Overdub 17-24 (snapshot 002) • Channels 1-4 set as inputs (MIC/LINE 1 through 4). • Channels 1-2 assigned to buss 1-2, channels 3-4 assigned to buss 3-4. • Effects 1, 2 (L, R) returns assigned to channels 5 through 8 (input). • TDIF 3 assigned to channels 9-16. • TDIF 1 and TDIF 2 assigned to channels 17-32. • Assignable send/returns 1 through 4 set as send/ return. Recording 1-16 (snapshot 003) • Channels 1-16 set as MIC/LINE inputs. • TDIF 1 and TDIF 2 assigned to channels 17 through 32 as returns. • Channels 17-32 assigned only to ST (minimum gain). • Channels 1 through 16 assigned as direct outputs (ST off). • Assignable send/returns 1 through 4 set as send/ return. I/O-OUTPUT selection • Buss 1-8/Direct out 1-8 • Buss 1-8/Direct out 9-16 • Buss 1-8 • Stereo • Stereo • Aux 1-2 sent to the stereo buss, stereo linked, with all pans at center. Similar to the previous mix snapshot, 24 returns are immediately available, but in this case, the full channel facilities, including EQ, are available for the eight mic/line inputs. Working this way also provides more external effect capabilities. Mic/line inputs 916 are still sent to Aux 1-2 and the outputs of the internal effects as well as the assignable returns are assigned directly to the stereo buss. • Channels 5 through 32 assigned only to ST and set to unity gain. With TDIF tracks 1-16 assigned to the second fader layer (channels 17-32), the first fader layer (1-16) is used for four mic/line inputs, the returns from the two internal effects units, and the returns from the third return group (tracks 17-24). This is ideal for overdubbing solo parts, etc. to tracks 17-24 over the 16 backing tracks. This snapshot also gives you the resources to record a vocal track dry, yet monitor the vocal with reverb in the cue mix. This allows you to record and monitor the first 16 tracks of a multitrack session, using the first and second fader layers. Since the channel outputs are all direct-to-track, the second fader layer controls the levels of the tape returns to the stereo buss (and hence the monitoring). Aux 1-6 can be used as six mono, or three stereo, studio cue feeds. 4 TASCAM DM-24 2.0 release notes
