A wealth of enhancements leads to increased functionality.

 

TEAC Corporation, Tokyo, Japan - August 2023... TASCAM is pleased to announce the Version 1.4.1 firmware update for the company's Sonicview 16/24 Digital Mixing Consoles. With the V1.4.1 update, the Sonicview digital consoles gain numerous enhancements designed to improve the consoles' usability—resulting in increased functionality.

TASCAM Sonicview consoles integrate beautifully into the most sophisticated production environments—thanks to their included 64-In/64-Out Dante interface, a 32-bit/96 kHz multi-channel USB audio interface, Class 1 Premium mic preamplifiers, and wealth of I/O. These mixers offer no-compromise audio quality, including a 96 kHz, 54-bit float FPGA mixing engine, continuous high-definition 96 kHz sampling, and 32-bit analog-to-digital converters. The mixing engine's float-point processing makes it possible to flexibly change levels without compromising resolution, and the FPGA mixing engine ensures ultra-low latency of 0.51ms, even in analog-to-analog connections. The result is no-compromise performance, including with Dante networks and in-line monitoring systems.

The V1.4.1 firmware update includes the following improvements—by category:
