There are also inputs onboard for piping in your other gear — synthesizers, effects processors, etc. The TASCAM US-2000 connects to your computer via high-speed USB 2.0, and it even comes with a copy of Cubase LE recording software, so you can record, edit, and mix your productions. If you need a reliable centerpiece to your project studio, you can count on the TASCAM US-2000.

  • Enough inputs to record an entire band
  • High-quality LED monitoring for inputs and your outputs
  • Comes with Cubase LE4 recording software

Enough inputs to record an entire band
With the TASCAM US-2000, you have an amazing amount of input and output flexibility, making this a great interface for anyone who plans to record full bands now or down the line. Onboard this powerful USB 2.0 audio interface, there are eight microphone preamplifiers with phantom power for your condenser microphones. There are also six analog inputs for your other gear, such as a synthesizer, a drum machine, or a sound module. In all, there are a total of 16 inputs and four outputs.

High-quality LED monitoring for inputs and your outputs
You'll appreciate the TASCAM US-2000's extensive metering section, so you can keep an eye on your levels and prevent problems with clipping. On the front panel, there are separate 5-segment LED meters for all 16 inputs and all four outputs. Couple this with the convenient front-panel level controls, and the TASCAM US-2000 takes the guesswork out of getting usable recorded sound.

Comes with Cubase LE4 recording software
You get powerful recording software with the TASCAM US-2000, so you won't need to purchase separate software to get started on your projects. The included Cubase LE4 software for your Mac or Pc gives you 48 audio tracks and 64 MIDI tracks to work with. Plus, it works with VST effect and instrument plug-ins, so you have room to grow.

A Great Interface For The Little Extra $.

by Jordan O. James from Albuquerque, NM
July 28, 2011
Music Background: Sounds like a great title to a broadway play.
When i was looking to upgrade my recording interface from a fire-wire 400 decive to a USB 2.0 device, i had looked at all the different models available, and i have to say, that this US-2000 device is... read more [+] by far the best. Besides interfacing really well with my Logic Pro application on my iMac the interface itself has some great little features, its got the little dust flaps for the top XLR inputs which are great to have since i live out here in the desert of New Mexico where dust is a huge problem. The graphic display has REALLY helped to eliminate any clipping issues when im setting the input or monitoring the output to my monitors and headphones. I would highly recommend this device to anyone who wants to put in the few extra bucks compared to the slightly cheaper units. Cheers. close [-]

A good buy! I was recording in minutes.

Music Background: Local Musician, Amateur Engineer
I've owned many audio interfaces over the years and this one is very good for the price. The drivers installed and played nice with my Apple MBP running OSX Lion. It was pretty much plug and play with... read more [+] logic studio 8 as well. No latency Issues as of yet. I've had it for about a month or so. It fits nicely on my rack mount. I monitor with m-audio monitor speakers and Beats studio headphones. The headphones are driven pretty well by the unit. I can hear the sound flawlessly at half volume from about 3 ft. from a drum kit during live recording. Honestly, I don't have anything bad to report as of yet. I got what I paid for and then some. close [-]
