Twenty-five
years after the introduction of the first Portastudio™,
the new DP-01 8-track Digital Portastudio makes hard
disk recording affordable and simple enough for all musicians.
Continuing TASCAM's "Capture Your Art" campaign
of making recording approachable to all musicians, the
DP-01 features the one-knob-per-function design that
has made TASCAM cassette Portastudios the choice of thousands
of musicians. It shatters the confusing page-shift-menu
interface popular with most other digital recorders.
Multitrack recording
to hard disk has never been more affordable.
The DP-01 has two mic
inputs on ¼" TRS
jacks for dual mono or stereo recording. Its eight
tracks record at uncompressed CD quality to an internal
40GB hard drive, and a stereo master track is available
for recording a mix. Each channel of the DP-01 has
a 45mm volume fader, plus dedicated controls for pan,
effects send, high EQ and low EQ. An LCD display shows
meters, editing settings and locate points. The DP-01
has a USB 2.0 jack for file backup and transferring
mixes to a computer. There are analog RCA line outputs,
a headphone out and S/PDIF line output.
For more inputs and effects, check out the DP-01FX.
It adds XLR microphone inputs with phantom power for
connecting professional condenser microphones. It has
a multieffects processor for adding effects to an instrument
during recording and a reverb processor for adding
effects during a mix.
