Pushing
the limits of what an audio interface can be, Tascam has launched the
FireOne - a FireWire Audio Interface with shortcut keys and a weighted
& illuminated jog wheel to inspire creative interaction with the
artist's music. The Tascam FireOne is the first stereo audio interface
in its class that records two mic ins and two outs over FireWire at
192kHz/24-bit audio resolution The most unique feature of the unit is
its large, weighted, backlit jog wheel, which allows musicians to zip
through their song while the backlight provides useful feedback such as
a visual metronome.
The FireOne features a pair of mic inputs with
phantom power and pad switches. A front panel guitar input allows
convenient direct recording of guitar or bass. MIDI input and output
are also provided for 16 channels of MIDI. It's the first FireWire
interface in its class to record and play at up to 192kHz/24-bit
resolution. It includes multitrack recording software, so you'll be set
to go right out of the box. In addition to its weighted & backlit
jog wheel, the FireOne has transport keys and eight shortcut keys to
control functions in most popular DAW applications.
