Tascam Series 102I
The Tascam Series 102I is a 10-input and 2-output audio interface.
Provides up to 10 audio inputs and 2 audio outputs to your computer under MacOS or Windows or to your device under iOS
- Audio resolution up to 192 kHz / 24 bit
- USB Audio Compliance 2.0 for use under iOS
Hardware features
- 2 analog mic/line inputs on balanced Combo connectors (mixed XLR/ TRS jacks)
- High-end microphone preamps, using Ultra-HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) technology, for ultra-low background noise (EIN : -127 dBu)
- High quality audio input circuits for low background noise on recordings
- 48-volt phantom power supply can be switched separately to XLR inputs
- Each TRS input can be switched to instrument position for direct recording of an electric guitar or bass
- Gain adjustment and signal presence and clipping indicators on each analog input
- Multi-channel optical audio input for up to eight additional inputs ideal for use with the Tascam SERIES 8p Dyna microphone preamplifier
- S/MUX format with support for high sampling rates (ADAT compatible): 8 inputs at 44.1/48 kHz, 4 inputs at 88.2/96 kHz, 2 inputs at 176.4/192 kHz
- 2 line outputs (Monitor) on balanced TRS jack, with volume control
- Direct Monitor option, for low latency listening
- Monitor Balance potentiometer to mix the live input signals with the signal read on the computer
- 2 headphone outputs on 6.35 mm stereo jack, with volume control (power 2 x 18 mW)
- MIDI Input/Output
- Mains power supply, via dedicated PS-P1220E power supply unit (delivered)
- Robust metal frame
