TASCAM is unveiling the new US-224 Digital Audio Workstation Controller at Winter NAMM. Combining a hardware interface with computer functionality, the US-224 is a simplified version of their US-428 digital audio workstation controller and interfaces with both Windows and Macintosh based platforms via a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port. Like the US-428, the US-224 requires no additional interface card to install, and is compatible with applications that accept standard MIDI controller messages. "The US-224 offers an extremely simple method of getting audio in and out of computers while offering control of the most commonly-used functions," says Jeff Klopmeyer, TASCAM advertising / marketing manager. The US-224 ($375.00 MSRP) allows users control over any number of software faders via four hardware faders selectable in banks with buttons located beneath the US-224's jog wheel. The unit's control surface also supports transport and control functions for sequencers and DAWs. The unit can support two inputs and two outputs of 16- or 24-bit audio simultaneously at 44.1 or 48 kHz, and is equipped with two balanced XLR and two unbalanced line/mic/hi-Z inputs, as well as S/PDIF digital input/output. The US-224 is powered via its USB connection to the computer with no external power supply required. The US-224 can also run in US-428 emulation mode offering users the ability to use software already supporting the US-428. For more information, visit their web site at http://www.tascam.com/.
