Tascam US-20x20, 20X20 CHANNEL AUDIO INTERFACE, 20-in/20-out USB 3.0 Interface with Mic Pre and Digital Mixer Modes

The Tascam Celesonic US-20x20 packs feature its 20 channels of analog and digital I/O into a single rackspace with great sounding preamps and USB 3.0/2.0 connectivity. The Tascam US-20x20 has an eight Ultra-HDDA microphone preamps that can provide a 56dB of gain and high headroom to make microphones sound their best. Also, the Tascam US-20x20 feature its up to ten channels of digital I/O are included on ADAT and S/PDIF connectors, with word clock also provided for use with external clocks like TASCAM's CG-1000. MIDI I/O allows use with controllers and synthesizers, and sample rates up to 192kHz/24-bit are also supported.
