TASCAM ANNOUNCES DP-006 and DP-008EX

POCKETSTUDIOs

MONTEBELLO, CA (Jan 24, 2013) – TASCAM is the Pro Audio Division of TEAC America. 

            TASCAM has been revolutionizing PORTASTUDIOs since they invented them. For decades, TASCAM’s PORTASTUDIOs have remained the ideal scratch pads and easy-to-use home recording devices. Utilized by seminal artists and home for legendary albums throughout the years, TASCAM has stayed true to manufacturing rugged, compact, feature-rich song-writing and demo tools. Next in line is the DP-006 6-Channel and DP-008EX 8-Channel Effects Fueled POCKETSTUDIOs for all songwriters and bands alike.   

            The DP-006 is the most compact solid-state multi-track recorder on the market. TASCAM equipped it with 6-channels (2 Mono and 2 Stereo/Mono), selectable track modes, built-in high-quality stereo condenser mics and 2 mic/line inputs. This recorder will easily fit into any gig bag, pocket or suitcase.

            To take it a step further, TASCAM is introducing the DP-008EX 8-channel POCKETSTUDIO with built-in input and master effects. Each channel is conveniently loaded with volume, pan, reverb-send knobs, auto-punch in/out, 2 XLR Mic inputs with +48V phantom power and built-in high-quality stereo condenser mics making the DP-008EX an ideal take-anywhere solid-state recorder.

            Both units come with a 2GB SD card for reliable recording and mini-USB for easy file transfer. To keep things simple TASCAM installed both units with the same user-interface they have been perfecting for years. These recorders allow any artist to record high-quality audio with ease so no focus is lost on what’s most important, the song.
