Tascam Sonicview-24 Digital Mixing Console

TASCAM has a long history of high-quality digital mixers. With TASCAM Sonicview, TASCAM has created an entirely new line of digital mixing consoles that incorporate the latest technology and make it easy to see and control all of the parameters you want, when you want, with completely customizable touch screens and user-definable buttons, along with motorised faders and intuitive control software.

TASCAM Sonicview mixing consoles integrate beautifully with the rest of your system, thanks to built-in Dante networking, a 32-bit/96 kHz multi-channel USB audio interface, and plenty of I/O. No-compromise audio quality, including 54-bit float-point FPGA mixing, combines with ample signal processing, an expansion slot for additional connectivity, and wireless remote control to make TASCAM Sonicview mixers a next-generation choice for touring, installed sound, recording studios, and broadcasting.

The TASCAM Sonicview 24 offers motorised channel faders in three banks of eight, plus a motorised stereo fader for the main bus. Above each bank of channel faders is a colour touch panel that allows you to view entire mixer channels, or get down to details, controlling each parameter with your fingertip. Thanks to the VIEW user interface, there are three different ways to view your settings, and each touch screen can be configured independently, so you can monitor and control any combination of settings you want, in whichever screens you want, whenever you want. For instance, you could monitor levels for eight channels of vocals on screen 1, while tweaking the parametric EQ on a drum submix on screen 2, and adjusting reverb settings on screen 3.

TASCAM Sonicview delivers the finest audio performance in its class, thanks to a 54-bit float-point FPGA mixing engine; continuous, high-definition 32-bit/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 FPGA mixing engine make it possible to ensures ultra-low latency, even in analog-to-analog connections. The result is no-compromises performance, including with Dante networks and in-line monitoring systems.

The TASCAM Sonicview 24 offers 24 channels with XLR mic/line inputs or 8 channels with both XLR mic inputs and balanced TRS line inputs. You also get TRS insert points on two channels, two stereo pairs of RCA aux inputs, and an XLR input for a talkback mic.

Each TASCAM Sonicview microphone input feeds a TASCAM Class 1 HDIA (High Definition Instrumentation Architecture) preamp—the finest mic preamp they've ever made. Thanks to an instrumentation amplifier with extremely good noise characteristics in the first stage, Class 1 HDIA microphone preamps exhibit excellent EIN, signal-to-noise ratio, distortion ratio, and frequency response. TASCAM Sonicview ultra definition mic preamps will pick up the slightest nuance from rosin on a violin bow to the subtle dynamic changes of a voice or saxophone. The mic inputs can accept up to +32 dBu signals, providing plenty of headroom for sudden level increases.

The combination of Class 1 HDIA preamps, 32-bit/96 kHz ADCs, and their 54-bit FPGA mixing engine is impressive but they didn't stop there: after conducting extensive internal and external evaluations to tune TASCAM Sonicview mixers for optimal performance. The result is best-in-class sound that will never disappoint.
