TASCAM DP-02 Digital Portastudio
TASCAM's DP-02 makes recording simple by matching 8-track CD-quality recording with a Portastudio interface-so you can ditch the menus and concentrate on the music. A pair of record-quality TASCAM mic preamps features XLR inputs with phantom power for condenser mics and a guitar input for direct recording. Each channel gives you dedicated controls for instant access to fader level, record arm/track mute, pan, effect send, high and low EQ. There's also an EQ frequency button for finer control over the mix.

Two effects processors are included in the DP-02. A multi-effects processor on the input provides great-sounding overdrive, flange, delay, and more for your guitar, vocal, drum and bass tracks. In addition, there's a reverb processor on a send and return for adding hall, room, plate, or chamber reverb to your mix. The DP-02 is loaded with great TASCAM extras like a chromatic tuner, metronome, and bar-and-beat display for getting around your song.

The DP-02 records two channels at a time to a built-in 40GB hard drive. When you're satisfied with your production, arm the dedicated master track for your stereo mixdown. You can transfer your tracks and mixes or backup your song to a computer through a speedy USB 2.0 connection or burn it to a CD with the slot-loading drive. No other workstation makes recording so simple, affordable and fun as the TASCAM DP-02.

Having loads of fun with this little recording studio. So simple to use even an old analog person can figure it out. Highly recommend. Easy to make a cd right from the studio, or put on your computer.

I was looking for a small digital recorder for some home studio recording projects,and since I'm an old dog and can't be taught new tricks, I was looking for an easy to use system.If you have used an old analog cassette recorder you can use this thing . Easy to understand and quick to get started making quality recordings. This is the "CATS MEOW ', if you need a small unit for a great low price,you won't go wrong here.

I've been a big fan of Tascam for many years. These guys know what recording is all about. One feature you may like is it does have a metronome. I don't use it but it's still there if you need it. One thing I like is you can record two tracks at once, this makes it nice if your using a multi tap delay in stereo for pinging back and forth. The use of this unit is pretty user friendly, and for the bucks its reasonable. It has phantom power too. You can master your track fairly easily and save to your computer or just burn a cd. The built in cdr makes it real nice if your stuck in a hotel room, a couple of xlr inputs along with the 1/4 's for direct guitar, you can use midi out or digital, it even has line outs, so its very versitale no matter what the situation. Spend alot of time with it, learn the ins and outs, and you'll enjoy it
