  • Investment worth the money

    As reviewed by S.Thomas on 2/26/2011

    With very little recording experience under my belt I have been able to turn out good quality work. Ive been wanting to get into home recording for a while now and I needed an afordable way to begin. After many hours of research, the NEO has been by far the best decision I could have made. It's a little intimidating at first especially when you first unbox it but once you get the basics down...it's all gravy from there. The manual could be a little more comprehensive, especially for beginners!! I recommend purchasing the instructional video. YouTube also has short instructional videos. I have called TASCAM Customer Service twice so far and both experiences have been excellent...quick, comprehensive, knowledgeable answers, advice and instruction!!! I bought the package deal and the accessories that come with NEO are awesome. The condenser mic is an AT2020. I have recorded a lot of vocals and acoustic guitar and the audio quality is excellent for the price. I added a Shure SM57 dynamic mic at the advise of the GC sales associate...excellent choice for guitar amps...Have fun with it!!!

  • Great so far!!

    As reviewed by Joe on 6/4/2009

    I have had the NEO for a bout a month.So far this thing is GREAT! I have had a little recording exp in the past - not an expert by any means. I've learned a ton just in a month on thsi thing. I've recorded, mixed, and mastered 2 tunes - basically for practice. There's almost nothing you can't do with this thing. The condeser mic that came with teh package sounds very good- guitar, acoutsic and vocs. My only complaint is the manual - not so detailed. But I did find the Tascam forums and teh facebook page so that helps a lot. If you are looking to make great recordings and have a low budget I would highly recommend the NEO
