Capture your entire band's sound with the Tascam US 16 x 08 USB interface, featuring 16 mic and line inputs designed for Mac, Windows and iOS systems. This versatile recording solution includes eight ultra-HDDA microphone preamps that provide up to 56 decibels of gain, plus two switchable line inputs perfect for direct guitar or bass recording. The unit functions as a standalone mic preamp when you don't require mixing capabilities, making it ideal for various recording scenarios.
Professional connectivity options include eight balanced line outputs for sending audio signals, with two featuring front panel level controls for performance monitoring. USB 2.0 drivers enable seamless iPad synchronisation through the rear panel, while MIDI input and output connections expand your setup possibilities. For those preferring analogue workflows, dedicated analogue input/output connections accommodate traditional recording applications.
Installation flexibility allows desktop placement or rack mounting using the included rack ears. All eight XLR mic inputs feature switchable 48-volt phantom power, supporting up to eight condenser microphones simultaneously for vocals, acoustic instruments, or amp recording across your entire band.
