The Product

The Tascam US-1800 is a simultaneous 16 input (14x analogue 2x digital) and 4 output rack mounting USB audio and MIDI interface, with support for recordings up to 96kHz/24bit resolution. The unit has eight balanced microphone inputs presented on XLR connectors on the front panel, each with an individual level control. Switchable phantom power is provided to enable the interface to be used directly with condenser microphones, and can be assigned in two groups, inputs 1 to 4 and 5 to 8. An additional pair of balanced inputs are also provided on the front panel on ¼" jacks with switchable sensitivity between line level and guitar level. Four balanced line inputs are also provided on the rear panel on ¼" jacks, with switchable sensitivity between -10dBV (consumer level) or +4dBu (professional level). Four balanced line outputs are presented on ¼" jacks on the rear panel (output routing being assigned within software). Left and right balanced monitoring outputs on ¼" jacks are also provided on the rear panel for direct connection to studio monitors or headphone amplifiers. Digital connectivity is offered in the form of S/PDIF digital input and output phono sockets with the output switchable between S/PDIF and AES/EBU formats.

Connection to a Mac or PC is by USB 2.0. A direct monitoring function enables the inputs to be monitored with zero-latency. Precise monitoring levels are achieved through a dedicated hardware control for monitor mix (between computer output and interface input) and independent level controls of the monitor and headphones outputs. MIDI input and output sockets enable the connection of suitably equipped keyboards, synthesizers and controller interfaces to receive and transmit MIDI data.

A copy of Cubase LE is included enabling you to fully utilise the functions of the audio interface in a digital audio workstation (DAW) software environment. The US-1800 is capable of simultaneous operation with multiple audio software packages (even handling Windows platform ASIO and WDM audio protocols at the same time).

The Manufacturer

Tascam is one of four divisions of the TEAC Corporation founded in 1953 and since its inception, it has remained dedicated to making innovative products for capturing creativity in the field of music and audio. After virtually creating the home recording scene during the early 1970s, Tascam went on to achieve recognition for pioneering products in the professional recording arena as well. Their legacy of product development and innovation is reflected in the sheer number of industry firsts achieved, including the first half inch four track cassette recorder. Today Tascam continues to lead the way in the field of electronic music recording technology.
