GALLERY PHOTOS ARE THE ACTUAL ITEMWITH ONE STOCK MAIN IMAGE DetailsI am selling this unit for a friend who is no longer interested in using it. He kept it in immaculate condition. I know nothing about these type of mixers/editors, etc., and therefore have not tested it. My friend assures me that the unit is in perfect functioning order. My friend used the unit lightly and with delicacy. I have been safekeeping the 2488 since in my possession. It has been covered in a soft drape cloth for protection. Please see Gallery Photos for appearance.Included: Power cord, a User’s Guide manual, and a Reference manual. “Way way back in 1979, when TASCAM introduced the first 4-track cassette tape Portastudio, they also helped set the professional audio industry standard for recording tracks: twenty-four. Like the Portastudio, 24 recording tracks caught on, becoming the primary creative tool for artists and producers worldwide. Was then. Still is.Only now everyone can have access to that magic number of tracks. Twenty-five years after the first Portastudio comes the incredible 2488. It’s by far the most affordable 24-track recording and mixing workstation ever made for home studios – and the only model within three times its price range that can truly run 24 tracks at 24-bits/ 44.1kHz. Eight inputs can be simultaneously recorded into the XLR and 1/4″ inputs. Twenty physical faders control the mixdown channels; each channel has 3-band EQ and access to three built-in effects processors. A large internal hard disk gives the user ample space for over twenty 24-track songs and virtual tracks for comping. Plus, the 2488 hasa USB 2.0 port for back-up via home computer.” 24-track / 24-bit recorder (44.1kHz)36-channel mixer3-band EQ on 24 channels, 8-inputs, tone generator and stereo bus with high and low sweepableshelving bands and full parametric mid bandThree aux sends on all channels except the effects returnLoop effect provides reverb, delay, chorus and more on an aux send and returnAssignable Guitar multi-effects processor for distortion, chorus, delay, flange and moreUp to eight assignable dynamics processors for compression during recording or mixdownDedicated Stereo Compressor on the stereo outputEight inputs: 4 XLR with phantom power double as W” mic/line inputs, plus four dedicated W” mic/line inputsTwenty 45mm faders including master faderLCD display for viewing meters and edit parametersCD-RW drive to record Red Book CDs, import/export WAV files and backup hard drive64-voice General MIDI sound moduleStandard MIDI File playerHigh-speed USB 2.0 jack connects to PC or Mac® for data backup and SMF/WAV file transfer A REVIEWThe 2488 is an all-in-one 24-track recorder/editor/mixer that’s capable of recording eight tracks at once and mixing 36 tracks down to two. Its LCD screen allows for graphical editing of tracks. It has a built-in CD-RW drive for making Red Book CD’s of mixes or for importing and exporting audio files and song backups. Its General MIDI tone generator can play back a simple click-track or a complete backing song. And with a USB 2.0 port, the 2488 appears as an external hard drive when connected to a host computer. The Portastudio concept really has come a long way! Best of all, this Portastudio sounds great and it’s extremely usable. (The 2488’s DI has more midrange “honk” to it.) We’re talking about an extremely cost-effective, all-in-one unit that’s ready to go. Much fun is to be had with the built-in multi-effects processor. It includes multiple pages of tweakable controls for distortion, amp simulation, and delay-based processing. The EQ’s (low and high shelf; fully parametric mid; available on every channel) sounded just fine, although they can be a pain to use without dedicated controls. Same goes for the compressors. The built-in “send” effects included some decent reverbs that didn’t sound the least bit tinny or metallic; they had a very contemporary sound to them. Only after the first few hours of working on the 2488, you can navigate pretty quick through all the various “soft” interfaces. There are even a few shortcuts (via “chorded” button pushes) that made things like nulling or copying parameters easier. Impressive. If there is a low side, making precise track edits via the jogwheel can be slow. It’s too easy to operate the jogwheel quickly enough that the graphic image of the track shown on the LCD screen takes a while to “catch up.” Plus, jogging oftentimes results in audible clicks. Nulling (matching) the non-motorized faders- with only 45 mm of throw-to saved scenes requires an extremely light touch and lots of patience. The built-in digital tuner works only with the single 1/4” instrument input; you can’t assign it to other analog inputs. During mixdown mode, you have 18 faders to control levels for recorded tracks (the last 6 faders are for stereo tracks). If you want to bring in an additional eight analog sources during the mix, you have to assign them to faders that will then change the level of both their recorded tracks and their incoming analog signals. And once you have all your mixes done, you can’t change relative levels between your songs before you write them to CD. How about some unexpected useful features? Well, the unit can record up to 250 virtual tracks. This makes it possible to record a bajillion vocal takes and comp between them. During tracking sessions, It is also useful to “unload” the first eight tracks so you can load them with the vocal takes and use them to copy-paste to a single final take. Afterwards, it’s quick enough to reload the tracks that have been unloaded. With auto-punch, you can do as many takes as needed and choose the keepers from a list of takes. Undoing and redoing operations is also easy due to the list of operations shown on the screen. While tracking, you can monitor source (completely dry) or disk (post EQ, dynamics, and multi-effects). Oh, and given you can record up to eight tracks at a time, a polarity-reverse for each fader (post-disk) comes in handy. And one more point worth mentioning, there are two external sends which are soft-selectable pre/post, making them useful for external effects or for headphone feeds (although you’ll need an external headphone amp or two if you’re using the built-in headphone amp for the engineer’s cans). How about the computer interface? Transferring data to/from a computer is mostly straightforward and glitch-free. First, you have to copy your audio, MIDI, or song files to the standard FAT partition on the 2488’s 40 GB drive. Then via USB 2.0, you can access those files from either a Mac or PC. Audio files are Broadcast WAV files and song files are in a proprietary format. This makes it possible to move your project to/from a computer-based DAW for editing, tracking, or mixing. A definite plus. Various features are crammed into this unit. It’s really impressive what you can do with this all-in-one box.
