The Product

The Tascam US-800 is a simultaneous 8 input (6x analogue 2x digital) and 4 output (2x analogue 2x digital) USB audio and MIDI interface, with support for recordings up to 96kHz/24bit resolution. The unit has two front mounted combo (XLR and ¼" jack) inputs providing for balanced mic and unbalanced line connectivity. The unbalanced inputs can be used for electric guitar, bass and other instruments. On the rear there are a further four combo (XLR and ¼" jack) inputs providing for balanced mic and unbalanced line connectivity. Each of the 6 combo inputs have their own level control and there is a globally assignable phantom power option to enable the mic inputs to be used with condenser microphones. Unbalanced left and right line outputs are presented on a pair of phono sockets. Two headphone sockets are provided, one on a ¼" jack and the other on a 3.5mm jack, both receiving the same monitoring feed. S/PDIF digital input and output phono sockets provide digital connectivity.

Connection to a Mac or PC is by USB 2.0. An internal digital mixer enables the inputs to be monitored with low latency. Precise monitoring levels are achieved through software control of the internal digital mixer and independent dedicated hardware controls for monitor and headphone output levels. 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 DAW (digital audio workstation) software environment. The US-800 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.
