Technical Information

INTRODUCTION

TASCAM’s DA-6400 is an all-new 64-track record­er that records to an internal SSD drive caddy for
live and event recording. Professional I/O options
like MADI and Dante make it ideal for live record­ing, event capture, or as a backup for critical DAW
sessions. Available with a single or dual/redundant
power supply, the DA-6400 is an unbeatable option
for professional remote recording.

Included with the DA-6400 is an AK-CC25 hot­swappable caddy containing a high-performance
240GB TASCAM solid-state drive. The caddy in­cludes a USB 3 jack for stand-alone use – simply

hand the drive to the client to ooad the BWAV
les into their DAW session. The DA-6400 records

64 tracks at 48kHz/24-bit or 32 tracks at 96kHz/24­bit. Included on the rear panel are SMPTE, word
clock, RS-422, parallel and Ethernet connections.

I/O options for the DA-6400 include the IF-MA64/
EX interface card, with both coaxial and optical
MADI. This card includes a redundant coaxial con­nection so that MADI is passed through even if
power is lost, making it an ideal backup recorder
for DAW sessions. Other I/O options include the IF­MA64/BN MADI card, IF-DA64 Dante card, IF-AE16
AES/EBU card, and IF-AN16/OUT analog output
card.

No dedicated recorder combines the high per­formance, exible operation, and complete reli­ability of TASCAM’s DA-6400 solid-state 64-track
recorder.
