Overview
Tascam builds the US-16x08 as a rackmount USB audio and MIDI interface with a mix of XLR and quarter-inch inputs and a bank of outputs. Control software is named in the title for managing the unit from a computer.
Many inputs in a rack-sized chassis make this a tool for drum and band recording. The black chassis and control software are mentioned in the title. Detail is limited to channel counts, sample rate and size, with nothing on preamps, phantom power or drivers.
Who it's for
Studio owners who need many simultaneous inputs and a rack-sized box feeding a computer. Players who want a compact tabletop unit, or who want long warranty cover, should choose another model.
Pros and cons
- USB audio and MIDI in one unit
- Control software included
- Warranty limited to ninety days of labor
- Preamp and phantom power details not listed
- Compatibility listed for PC only
Performance notes
The channel count decides how many sources can record at once, and the maximum sample rate sets the resolution limit. USB carries the audio and MIDI to the computer, while the control software manages the unit. The listing gives no latency or preamp figures.
