Tascam 2488neo 24-Track Digital Recording Workstation

TASCAM's updated 2488neo 24-track, 24-bit recorder sports 8 mic inputs, giving you the power to record and mix a full band. The enhanced batch of mastering effects, on this version combine with the reverb, amp simulation, compression, and EQ processing to create and burn finished-sounding CDs in a standalone unit. With TASCAM's simple interface, great-sounding preamps and chart-ready effects, the 2488neo makes for a convenient 24-track production machine.

PM0.4 Powered Studio Monitors

Diminutive in size, but with a sound that has to be heard to be believed, the PM0.4 is naturally recommended for desktop use but its superb audio performance in a compact physical size expands its applications to professional console top studio monitoring, audio installation and portable audio monitoring. Features 36 watts of biamped power, UFLC 16mm soft dome HF unit, 100mm LF woofer and overall volume control.

Drivers:

The PM0-4 monitor features internal biamplification employing two state-of-the-art amplifiers which are precisely calibrated to match the performance of the drive units and utilize high quality discrete bipolar output devices:HF 18w, LF 18w. High-capacity power supply units are used for excellent transient response. PM0.4 offers TRS and Line inputs

High Frequency Unit:

The soft dome tweeters employ Fostex's UFLC technology (Poly Urethane Film Laminated Cloth) to achieve light weight and high stability performance.

Low Frequency Drivers:

Uses a mixture of cut and milled fibres made from aromatic polyamide impregnated with resins to simultaneously achieve high rigidity and
optimum damping. An olefin film is thermally adhered to its surface to control frequency response and ensure reliability. Distortion is minimized by the use of an ultra-pure copper voice coil.

AT2020 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The Audio-Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Microphone is the ideal mic for project and home studio applications. With a remarkably low price, cardioid pattern, and specs that put it in the big leagues, it features a custom-engineered, 16mm low-mass diaphragm and smooth 20Hz-20kHz frequency response.

Great so far!!

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
