The MM-2D-E is a compact converter that converts 2-channel mic/line input/output signals into Dante signals. With half the size of a standard 1U rack, the MM-2D-E is suitable for different Dante systems as an exquisite analog output unit. The built-in DSP mixer enables small scale systems to fully perform with a variety of input/output models the TASCAM Dante Compact Processor Series offers. MM-2D-E supports up to 96kHz/24bit and uses Euroblock connectors for analog mic/line input/output.
2 mic/line input/output, 4 Dante input/output
The MM-2D-E can either convert 2-channel mic/line input signals into 2 Dante output signals, or 2 Dante input signals into 2-channel line output signals. In addition, it also supports 4-channel Dante input/output as well, making it possible to use audio sources within an established Dante network.
Phantom power and remote gain control compatible mic preamps
The installed mic preamps support phantom power (+48V) and the input gain can be remote controlled via TASCAM DCP CONNECT software, via Dante or other external controllers.
TASCAM studio quality mic preamps installed
The MM-2D-E has installed two natural-sounding, high grade TASCAM mic preamps made with all the knowledge and experience cultivated through the years in the making of pro audio equipment. Input range covers from -74 dBu to +26 dBu, with equivalent input noise achieving less than -125 dB, and signal-noise ratio over 105 dB.
Compressor, 4 band parametric EQ, auto level, and more effects included
They can be finely adjusted depending on the mic/line equipment used.
Built-in 6 in/4 out matrix mixer
Using the built-in matrix mixer, users can mix up to 6 input sources (2-channel mic/line inputs with 4-channel Dante inputs) and configure the settings on each of the four output zones. The matrix mixer is also equipped with a ducking function and an ambient noise compensator function, which detects the level of environmental sounds and automatically adjusts the input level of the source.
Input/output routing
Flexible routing allows users to choose the output zone of 2 mic/line inputs, 4 Dante inputs, or the built-in matrix mixer as 2 line output and/or 4 Dante output. The MM-2D-E can be also used as a simple mic/line input unit by bypassing the matrix mixer.
10 band EQ and a variety of output effects included
10 band EQ, high pass filter, low pass filter, delay, and limiter effects included. They can be finely adjusted depending on the powered speakers, or to the environment in which the unit is used.
PoE supported
Power supply can be provided to the unit via PoE (Power over Ethernet).
No need for AC adaptors; power supply construction fees and installation costs can be reduced by using a PoE compatible network switch.
Remote control via control software
Controlling effects or the matrix mixer can be easily done through the dedicated control software; depending on the amount of controls the user needs, there are two types:
- TASCAM DCP CONNECT, designed for system integrators/managers that handle the configuration and settings of an entire system.
- TASCAM EZ CONNECT, designed for end-users and allowing them to use simple controls.

Information
| Latest version info | |
| Firmware | V1.04 |
| Dante Module Firmware | V1.2.0.6 |
- In firmware V1.03 and earlier, when the total amount of packet data sent/received exceeded 2 GB due to prolonged operation after power-on, the network connection would become unavailable or the network would be disconnected.
This issue has been fixed in V1.04.
- In V1.2.0.5, remote connection could still become interrupted on networks where multicast was used. This problem was confirmed and fixed.
