Twenty-four rotary encoders are 

provided, selectable to control pan or 

up to 6 aux sends. Or, with the press of a 

button, all 24 encoders can be employed 

as one large channel strip* for four-band 

EQ, aux and pan control. Each encoder 

has an easy-to-read ring of LEDs that 

displays the current setting of that knob. 

Another mode changes the LED rings 

to display meters instead for instant 

feedback on your levels. 

A set of solid-feeling transport but-

tons are also provided, plus functions 

like in and out points. A smooth jog/

shuttle wheel is provided for locating 

in your project or scrubbing audio clips. 

And the US-2400 is the fi rst universal 

DAW control surface to include a joystick 

for surround panning.  

The US-2400 connects to your com-

puter using a simple USB connection. 

No drivers need to be installed to start 

using it – since the US-2400 emulates 

the Mackie Control® or Mackie HUI®, 

setup is fast and easy. With it’s all-in-one 

design (no fader expanders required), 

professional-quality components and 

fl exible control functions, the US-2400 

is the ultimate front end for any studio 

serious about mixing on a computer. 

T

he new US-2400  provides all of 

the hands-on control that big 

computer mixing projects demand. 

With twenty-fi ve  touch-sensitive 

moving faders, assignable encoders, 

fl exible metering, surround panning 

capability  and reliable transport con-

trols, it’s ready for the biggest mix you 

can throw at it.  

Modern digital audio workstation 

software has become so powerful that 

many users mix inside the computer, 

never using an external mixer for 

more than monitoring their work. 

Unfortunately, mixing on the com-

puter often means moving on-screen 

faders with your mouse or panning a 

track by clicking and dragging. With 

the US-2400 , you can save the mouse 

for what it’s good at and use a control 

surface for what it’s good at: hands-on 

mixing with lots of real faders, knobs 

& buttons. The TASCAM US-2400 gives 

you enough faders to handle a real re-

cording session without lots of bank 

switching.  

The US-2400  features 25 touch-

sensitive moving channel faders and 

a touch-sensitive motorized master 

fader, each with 10-bit resolution for 

precise level control. Each channel has 

dedicated, illuminated select, solo and 

mute controls so you can see what’s 

going on without checking the com-

puter monitor.
