This is a great buy at $799.00, and you get a 24 track studio, with 8 pro mic inputs and can make up to 250 tracks. If you play other Instruments such as Keyboard and have a digital drum machine, not to mention, your guitars it's almost endless the amount of Instruments and vocals you can do. </span><br /><p><span style="color:#000099;">The one thing I love about these machines is the ease of use, it does take a few hours to learn about the machine, you do have to read the Instructions, but I love the speed that this baby runs at, you can cut and paste music, edite,delete, store songs, store a full CD if you wish, you can burn the CD when your done. And once the CD is finished, just take the CD over to your Computer and run off 60 copies an hour. And I know you have a computer or you woudn't be reading this right?</span></p><br /><p><span style="color:#000099;">The advantages of doing this is awesome, you can sell your CD's in concerts, at your favorite church, or how about on the Internet, and in Stores.......yes friends, you can make a professional CD using this Tascam 24 track digital workstation. Also I have use this machine to run a line from my professional guitar floor boxes and professional modeling effects processors and it works beautifully. I also like directly connecting my acoustic guitar into this Tascam 24 track, the sound is awesome, also do mic my acoustic guitars to give it that pick sweeping sound that you can't get by just running a line from the guitar, but that is normal if your running a line into the 24 track striaght from the acoustic guitar. I found that combining both methods running a line from the guitar gives it a fuller sound, and by also taking a microphoning the guitar you get that ligt and airy string sound, this allows for the most perfect acoustic sound you can get in a top pro studio, and you can do this on this 24 Track digital work station.</span><br /><br /><p><span style="color:#000099;">Now just think - only extra's you'll need to buy for your studio is, a set of headphones and at least 2 microphones.....of coarse this is bare bottom line, for spending the least amount of money you can and sell a CD. You will have to listen back into your headphones, untill you place the finished CD into a stereo system or your car stereo system to hear what it sounds like without the headphones.</span><br /><br /><p>The Specs are below for the - Tascam 2488neo 24 - Track Digital Recording Work Station.<br />Updated mastering effects include multiband compression, EQ, and noise shaping for pro-sounding CD mixes<br />3-band EQ on 24 channels, 8-inputs and stereo bus with high and low sweepable shelving bands, and full parametric mid band<br />Three aux sends on all channels except the effects return<br />Loop effect provides reverb, delay, chorus, and more on an aux send and return<br />Assignable guitar multi-effects processor for overdrive, distortion, chorus, delay, flange, and more<br />Up to eight assignable dynamics processors for compression during recording or mixdown<br />Dedicated stereo compressor on the stereo output<br />Eight inputs: 4 XLR with phantom power double as 1/4" mic/line inputs, plus four more 1/4" mic/line inputs<br />Nineteen 45mm faders including master fader<br />LCD display for viewing meters and editing parameters<br />250 virtual tracks<br />CD-RW drive to record Audio CDs, import/export WAV files and backup hard drive<br />High-speed USB 2.0 jack connects to PC or Mac for data backup and SMF/WAV files<br />Recording resolution: 44.1kHz, 16-bit or 24-bit<br />TASCAM 2488neo 24-Track Digital Recording Workstation Specifications:<br />Audio performance:<br />Sampling frequency: 44.1 kHz<br />Bit depth (resolution): 16-bit/24-bit (user-selectable, per song)<br />Crossfade time: 10 ms<br />Number of tracks: 24 (8 may be recorded simultaneously)<br />Frequency response: INPUTS A to H STEREO/MONITOR/EFFECT SEND: 20 Hz 20 kHz +1.0/ 1.0 dB (trim at min.)<br />Noise level: (inputs with 150 Ohms terminator, INPUTS A to H STEREO/EFFECT SEND: <90>96 dB 20kLPF+A curve<br />Crosstalk: Faders at nominal, INPUTS A to H STEREO/EFFECT SEND/MONITOR: >80 dB @ 1 kHz (trim at minimum, 20kLPF+A curve 1 input at max)<br />Dimensions: 21.5"W x 5.7"H x 14"D<br />Weight: 17.6lb.</p><br /><p><span style="color:#000099;"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong>Microphones</strong> </span>- Since we are creating a limited budget Home Studio - Here's my choice for Mic's </span><br /><p><span style="color:#000099;"></span><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><br /></p></strong></span><br /><center><span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"><strong><em>MXL V69 Mogami Edition Tube Microphone</em></strong></span></center><br /><p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"></span></strong><br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkf_Uo1tyCNIGkdqcftzOAv5BcnRbinWo1_3PbJqX19imXpdCRfMi1rLYkhGmXvb66sLdpDsDWSiqt1mXeZCT42c_h-B5N9r8oisZCcZbTiTF9BCx6BX1EO_jq90_EdHJucloJn48qWXqd/s1600-h/Rock+Guitar+Online.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5308723213196528802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 250px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 250px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkf_Uo1tyCNIGkdqcftzOAv5BcnRbinWo1_3PbJqX19imXpdCRfMi1rLYkhGmXvb66sLdpDsDWSiqt1mXeZCT42c_h-B5N9r8oisZCcZbTiTF9BCx6BX1EO_jq90_EdHJucloJn48qWXqd/s400/Rock+Guitar+Online.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><p>You need a great mic, even if you can only afford only one mic, this mic really puts out, it has very low noise and is a large diaphragm condensor,mic with warm sweet sound, vesaltile shock mount,power supply and 7 pin XLR mic cables and wins screen. This is Phantom Power Mic. yet the Tascam digital recording unit has phantom power on it so they will work together fine.<br /><p>Remember, a great mic is needed, and mics equal to this can cost over $1000.00.<br /><p>But This mic is only - $299.00. ...if you can get 2 of these then do so, or get 1 of these and a regular Sure hand held, but whatever you do, you will not regret buying this microphone.

By routing in good eq units you can get even a better more controled and taylored sound, sure you can do a great job on the Tascam 24 track All In One Work Station - but adding a mixer takes you to a far higher level.<br /><br /><p>With The Mackie 24 Channel - 8 Bus Routing Out puts you get lots of options. One thing I like to say before starting, is you can order the professional meter bridge or just use the lead meters on the unit. But this is one very nice looking board with the meter bridge added, has that real studio look to it.</p><br /><br /><p>Any ways - This mixing console comes with sweet sounding preamps,4 band channel eq's,pristine professional quality, this very board is used in small professional studios around the country. And I am talking real studios, not just home studios.For the price this compares to sound boards costing 3 to 4 times as much. It's a great investment for your studio and is my top pick for sound boards in a price range anyone can afford. Also if you own your own home like I do, then it's great for having people over to practice if you have your own band.</p><br /><br /><p><br /><br /><center><span style="color:#3333ff;">__________________________________</span></center><br /><br /><center><span style="color:#3333ff;"></span></center><br /><br /><center><span style="font-size:180%;color:#000099;"><strong><em>24 Track Digital Recording</em></strong></span></center><br /><br /><center><strong><em><span style="font-size:180%;color:#000099;"></span></em></strong></center><br /><br /><center><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Tascam 2488neo - 24 Track Digital Work Station</span></strong></center><br /><br /><center></center><br /><br /><p><br />Yes this is the same 24 Track unit listed above, so go back to the top of the page and read about it if you haven't done that already, I think this unit is awesome and with a Great Mixing console it is an unbeatable combination in the Home Studio.</p><br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><p><strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;">Equalizers - The Peavey PV 231EQ Graphic Equalizer -</span></strong><br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLLeL9vpg9Ub52YCObekvw0jCddD0GOa5RCvVxvivnmNeuBwz9vPcF90JMo0y1SFZ9zWmEyGfkZe93qEJv69P9xgyAC4bmJXPz0n94b0kwP-Fx5jKZPJonIe6asjTrpdQ6yfAzYO30aVDv/s1600-h/Guitar+World.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5308793509870997986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 250px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 250px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLLeL9vpg9Ub52YCObekvw0jCddD0GOa5RCvVxvivnmNeuBwz9vPcF90JMo0y1SFZ9zWmEyGfkZe93qEJv69P9xgyAC4bmJXPz0n94b0kwP-Fx5jKZPJonIe6asjTrpdQ6yfAzYO30aVDv/s400/Guitar+World.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><p><br />I have always loved the control I get using Peavey Eq units, and trust me I have used a ton of them. A great eq unit can help you balance out sounds and get great harmonics on your sound system, most people know about eq's for preventing feedback, but the real truth is, eq's help you get the sound you want while recording, the most perfect sound that you can create, and most home studios have at least several of these. They can be used in many different ways, they can be used routed through the mixing boards send and return, or - they can be used seperatly on each channel for each instrument using the mixers send and return on each channel, or they can be used from the output of the mixer to the recording units.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#000099;">I found that for the cleanest sound</span></strong>,<strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">when recording</span></strong> I run my eq's from the boards main out puts to the Tascam Digital Multi-Track.Infact....here's how I do it....from my Mixers Main Outputs I run a line to Reverb Effects Processors, then from the reverb unit I run a line to a a Boss Compressor-Limiter unit , from the Boss Compressor I run a line to the <strong>eq unit </strong>and then a line into the Tascam 24 Track Digital Work Station. </p><p>Anyways, my eq unit is the last in a chain of units I use on each output channel from my Mixer.I make sure it's the last unit in the chain or line of rack mount units and the reason why is simple- after sound has passed through the reverb and compressor I try make the sound sparkle with warm and clear highs and lows, that is why the eq is last in my chain of gear before it goes to the 24 track.</p><p>Sure there's a lot of ways to do it, most people add reverb after the recording is done, but I do it before I record into the Tascam 24 Track Recorder, the reason I do it first is because I have been running sound for years and I know the perfect amount that I want on my music, I really don't go very heavy on reverb either, I use only a very slight amount, but I use the eq unit to get the perfect sound that I want for my music.<br /><br />Like I said there's many ways to record, that's the great thing about recording, everyone has a different style, and a different sound.
