When getting your ideas down quickly is not enough . . .

TASCAM's DP-02CF Digital Portastudio has enough recording power to let you create a full production at 16-bit/44.1kHz CD quality. The DP-02CF combines 8-track CD-quality recording with a Portastudio interface. The DP-03CF Portastudio's one-button-per function design is for musicians who want to record quickly and have fun! First, record your stereo drum machine using its 2-track simultaneous recording, and then use the line inputs to record bass and layer guitar parts. A song position bar/beat display makes it easy to overdub. Or, if you're going the straight acoustic route (no drums), use the internal metronome to keep time. Next, use the low-cut filter, two-band EQ, and pan controls to make sonic space for your vocals, which you can record with a high-quality condenser mic thanks to a pair of matched TASCAM preamps with XLR inputs and phantom power. There's also an EQ frequency button for finer control over the mix. When you're happy with your tracks (and you should be happy with a DP-02), mix down to a dedicated stereo master track and save your final mixes to an included 1GB CompactFlash card (The DP-02 records two channels at a time to the card). Finally, you can transfer your tracks and mixes or backup your song to a computer through a speedy USB 2.0 connection for MP3 encoding or CD burning from your Mac or PC. Let the fun begin!

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

  • Great!!!

    As reviewed by Bubba J on 1/3/2009

    I just got this portastudio and I love it. The sound quality is great and it was very easy to use. The only thing I had trouble with was the memory. It comes with a 1GB Compact Flash, and after recording 4 songs only about 4 minutes long each, it said "no free disk". To solve this all that needed to be done was clear the history of all the "undos" and "redos" that took place in learning how to use it. It opened up an extra 60 minutes of recording for each track.

  • Nice For Single Artists

    As reviewed by KyGuy316 on 12/30/2009

    This recorder is great when just recoding alone and with less than pro equipment. Although you need some external effects, the effect send and return knobs give you a great feel for the amount of reverb, delay, etc, you want with each track. I work with a BOSS Digital Reverb pedal and a Line 6 POD for my effects and I still get quality sound out of this thing. The auto punch functions are great for precise entrances but I am disappointed in the lack of pre-recording time you get before you play. Also the memory card is a joke. One gigabyte gives you about enough room to do a song and a half before its full. Not a dozen like the detail claim. all in all a good product though.

  • Great Recorder

    As reviewed by gibsonplayer on 4/2/2009

    This recording system has a great sound. I run all my guitars, acoustic and electric, through my half stack head and straight to the recorder. It gets a really nice sound to it. My electronic drums record very well too. One thing that I had to figure out was that after recording, realizing i dont like the track, re-doing it and recording again... the system saves each recoring so u can go back and pick it if you decide u liked it. so when you're done recording, you must delete the history or it will take up a lot of memory.
