into the future of recording. Whether you’re mixing for
standard CD mastering or more advanced applications in
surround encoding or DVD authoring, the DM-24’s superb
audio quality blows away the standards in affordable
digital mixing. 96kHz is the standard audio sampling rate
for DVD video discs also for the new DVD-A (DVD Audio)
discs that are just starting to appear on the market. (Please
note that in 96kHz mode the number of channels is
halved.)
One Of The Most Powerful Automations Available …
At Any Price. Completely built into the mixer with no
external computer or software required, the DM-24 offers
the most comprehensive automation capabilities ever desi-
The DM-24 is an entirely new designed, powerful
and affordable small-format digital recording
console with 32 channels. With excellent audio
quality, highly flexible routing, extremely powerful
built-in automation, built-in professional-quality
effects, dynamics processing and parametric EQ, and
flawless interaction with the MX-2424 hard disk
recorder, the DM-24 is destined to become the
centerpiece of great studios around the world.
Masterly Sound Quality. With premium-quality 24-bit A/
D and D/A converters and up to 96kHz sampling rates, the
DM-24 is designed to take your mixes into the future of
recording. Whether you’re mixing for standard CD mastering or more advanced applications in surround encoding
or DVD authoring, the DM-24’s superb audio quality blows
away the standards in affordable digital mixing.
New SHARC DSP chips allow 32-bit floating point processing. As a result the DM-24 offers more digital headroom
when applying dynamics processing and time based effects
and in the end this enhances the overall sound quality. By
the way, the DM-24 offers 16 of the best mic preamps that
TASCAM has ever made. It also features four custom-designed LED ring encoders on the EQ knobs that can be assigned as aux sends or EQ and Pan – sound and aux level
ajustments are so much easier now!
24-bit, 96kHz Performance From Day One. With 96kHz
sampling rates, the DM-24 is designed to take your mixes
gned into a compact digital mixer … bar none. Up to eight
entire mixes can be stored in the DM-24. Once a new mix is
opened, the DM-24 automatically goes into its automation
mode so that any static changes you make are instantly
saved. Plus, you can offload all automation data via MIDI.
Flexible Interfacing. Whether you’re working with
digital or analog systems, the DM-24’s standard interfaces
allow easy integration into any studio environment. In
addition to its 16 analog inputs with XLR mic and 1/4” line
inputs on each channel, it includes 24 channels of TDIF
interfacing plus eight channels of ADAT Optical I/O, two
stereo AES/EBU and two stereo S/PDIF interfaces. Two
option slots are also provided for additional 8-channel
analog and digital interface modules.
GPI-Outputs. The “General Purpose Interface” is a simple
control interface that sends trigger signals to external
equipment like tally devices (e.g. a “RECORDING” sign
beneath the control room door) etc.
Full-featured Channels. Each channel of the DM-24
offers a four band fully parametric equalizer, a compressor
that can be configured either pre or post EQ. Highly-configurable Noise gates are available in channels 1–16. There is
also a digital delay on each channel to compensate for
microphone placement and digital converter delays when
using external analog equipment. The DM-24 also features
1/4” TRS inserts on each channel, as well as detailed capabilities of routing audio internally throughout the mixer.
Extensive outputs and monitoring choices are also
provided. All faders are motorized and touch-sensitive

with respect to automation allowing easy and comfortable
operation.
Professional Dynamics Processing, EQ and Effects.
You may not ever need to turn to outboard effects processors, equalizers or compressors with the DM-24. With
highly-configurable gates, fully-parametric 4-band EQs and
compression on each channel, the DM-24 offers everything
you need for great mixes built right into the mixer. Each
channel also features a custom-designed delay with an
innovative circuit design that compensates for fixed latencies within a digital studio.
Also, the effects available on the DM-24 are comparable to
the best effects found in professional studios worldwide.
It’s easy to understand why: TASCAM has teamed up with
