The Model 2400 is a clever hybrid – a powerful analogue mixer with a built-in recorder and USB interface. It's an excellent choice for bands and songwriters who want a streamlined workflow, combining the feel of a classic console with modern digital connectivity. This is especially appealing for those wanting to capture a live band performance without a huge outboard rack.

- • Loop-in paths on channels provide flexible routing for effects and external processors.
CONS

Frequently Asked Questions
The recorder uses Tascam's internal converters, which are good, but dedicated high-end recorders often offer a slight edge in dynamic range and noise floor.
No, the USB interface is limited to 24 inputs and 22 outputs – it’s designed to complement, not replace, a full DAW recording session.
While excellent for the price point, they don't quite reach the sonic depth and character of truly high-end preamps, but they're a very respectable performer.
