US-2400 DAW Controller with 100mm Moving Faders

Twenty-four rotary encoders are

provided, selectable to control pan or

up to 6 aux sends. Or, with the press of a

button, all 24 encoders can be employed

as one large channel strip* for four-band

EQ, aux and pan control. Each encoder

has an easy-to-read ring of LEDs that

displays the current setting of that knob.

Another mode changes the LED rings

to display meters instead for instant

feedback on your levels.

A set of solid-feeling transport but-

tons are also provided, plus functions

like in and out points. A smooth jog/

shuttle wheel is provided for locating

in your project or scrubbing audio clips.

And the US-2400 is the fi rst universal

DAW control surface to include a joystick

for surround panning.

The US-2400 connects to your com-

puter using a simple USB connection.

No drivers need to be installed to start

using it – since the US-2400 emulates

the Mackie Control® or Mackie HUI®,

setup is fast and easy. With it’s all-in-one

design (no fader expanders required),

professional-quality components and

fl exible control functions, the US-2400

is the ultimate front end for any studio

serious about mixing on a computer.

T

he new US-2400 provides all of

the hands-on control that big

computer mixing projects demand.

With twenty-fi ve touch-sensitive

moving faders, assignable encoders,

fl exible metering, surround panning

capability and reliable transport con-

trols, it’s ready for the biggest mix you

can throw at it.

Modern digital audio workstation

software has become so powerful that

many users mix inside the computer,

never using an external mixer for

more than monitoring their work.

Unfortunately, mixing on the com-

puter often means moving on-screen

faders with your mouse or panning a

track by clicking and dragging. With

the US-2400 , you can save the mouse

for what it’s good at and use a control

surface for what it’s good at: hands-on

mixing with lots of real faders, knobs

& buttons. The TASCAM US-2400 gives

you enough faders to handle a real re-

cording session without lots of bank

switching.

The US-2400 features 25 touch-

sensitive moving channel faders and

a touch-sensitive motorized master

fader, each with 10-bit resolution for

precise level control. Each channel has

dedicated, illuminated select, solo and

mute controls so you can see what’s

going on without checking the com-

puter monitor.
