Firewire DAW Control Plus Audio and MIDI! The FW-1884 is a professional DAW control surface and audio/MIDI interface from Tascam that uses the FireWire high-speed data transfer protocol. Tascam has used FireWire's high-bandwidth capabilities in the FW-1884 to provide audio and MIDI interfacing to computers. The FW-1884's eight 100mm motorized touch-sensitive channel faders and one master fader give you responsive level control. In addition, pan, solo, mute and select functions are provided on each channel. Tactile control for four bands of parametric EQ, a weighted jog wheel and a variety of shortcut keys for various popular software applications help complete the FW-1884 package. Audio I/O For Every Use Co-designed between Tascam and Frontier Design Group, the FW-1884's DAW control capabilities include comprehensive mixing, automation, editing and navigation tools. In addition to its surface control capabilities, the FW-1884 provides eight balanced XLR analog mic/line inputs with high quality mic preamps, phantom power and inserts on every channel. Using 24-bit/96kHz A/D and D/A converters, the FW-1884 offers full 96kHz operation on all analog I/O channels with compatible DAW software. In addition to its two FireWire (IEEE 1394) computer interfaces, Tascam gives FW-1884 users eight channels of ADAT lightpipe as well as stereo S/PDIF inputs and outputs. Perfectly suited to multi-channel surround production as well as standard stereo mixing, the FW-1884 provides eight analog outputs for simultaneous connection to L/R and 5.1 surround matrices. A headphone output is also provided. MIDI I/O For Every Use Four MIDI inputs and four MIDI outputs on the FW-1884 allow users to connect with a 64 channels of MIDI sound generation and timing tools. Its Word Clock in and out jacks allow computer systems to maintain accurate clock synchronization in digital recording environments. Also, its assignable footswitch jack can be used for tasks such as hands-free punching or MIDI control. In use, the FW-1884 allows up to 18 audio inputs to be accessed at once. As a DAW controller, the FW-1884 is compatible with a wide variety of popular applications including MOTU Digital Performer", Steinberg Cubase", Steinberg Nuendo", Cakewalk Sonar", and more. Expand On A Great Thing For people who require simultaneous control of more audio channels, Tascam's FE-8 expands the FW-1884 with eight additional channel control strips (100mm motorized faders and dedicated control buttons). Multiple FE-8's may be added to an FW-1884 system as needed for big console functionality with any DAW system.

Customer Reviews  This Is One Great Board   by from Akron, Ohio, May 27, 2006 Music Background:  Professional Recording Engineer “If your using Cakewalk Sonar look no further. This is the board to get. Great I/O connections. I have no issues with this board and Sonar. A little tricky to setup but once setup, WoW. Like mentioned below, all problems have been solved about a year and a half ago. As far as 1394 (firewire)connection is concerned a TI chipset based mobo or pci will eliminate all possible...” Read More • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review Sweetwater Expert Advice     "This is a complete recording solution for your computer-based studio.
