Tascam SERIES 8p Dyna 8-Channel Mic Preamp with Built-In Analog Compressor and Digital I/O

Description Designed for studio and stage use, the Tascam SERIES 8p Dyna is a 1 RU rackmountable mic preamp with selectable analog compression on each channel, as well as low-noise preamps, dual S/MUX optical ports, and selectable 48V phantom power on a per-channel basis. Because of this, you can use the unit as an expansion device for S/MUX equipped interfaces, as a front-end for DANTE setups, or as a standalone front end.On the front of the unit, you’ll find two combination XLR-1/4″ input jacks for mic, line, or instrument usage. The rear provides six more XLR-1/4″ combination jacks for line or microphone inputs. You’ll also find eight 1/4″ line outputs and a DB25 connector for all eight analog outputs. BNC wordclock I/O and optical ports are found on the rear as well.The front panel offers individually switched 48V phantom power as well as comprehensive metering via digital peak and level meters. The unit ships with its own power supply. FeaturesMic, Instrument & Line InputsFor Recording or Live Use8 x Mic Preamps with Analog CompressionSelectable 48V Phantom Power8 x Mic/Line Inputs, 2 x Instrument Ins8 x 1/4″ TRS Line Outputs1 x DB25 OutputOptical S/MUX & ADATWordclock I/O via BNC SocketsIncludes Power Supply SpecificationsDigital SpecificationsSampling Frequency44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, and 192 kHzBit Rate24-Bit InputsInput Connections8 x XLR-1/4″ Combination JacksInput ImpedanceMic Input: 2.3 KilohmsInstrument Input: 1 Megohm or MoreLine Input: 10 KilohmsInput GainMic: -58 dBu (Minimum), -6 dBu (Maximum)Instrument: -58 dBV (Minimum), -6 dBV (Maximum)Line: -48 dBu (Minimum), 4 dBu (Maximum)Gain Range52 dBMaximum Input LevelMic: 10 dBuInstrument: 10 dBVLine: - 24 dBu OutputsOutput Connections8 x 1/4″ TRS Line Outputs, Balanced1 x DB25 ConnectorOutput ImpedanceAnalog Output: 100 Ohms or LessLine Output: 230 Ohms or LessLoad Impedance: 2 kOhms or MoreOutput LevelNominal: 4 dBuMaximum 20 dBuDigital Audio ConnectorsOptical I/O, Multichannel Optical Format, Supports S/MUX2 at 88.2 and 96 kHz, S/MUX4 at 176.4 and 192 kHz ClockWord Clock I/OI/O: 2 x BNC SocketsVoltageClock Input: 2.0 to 5.0 V p-pClock Output: 2.0 V p-p into 75 OhmsImpedanceInput: 75 Ohms ±10% with Terminal On/Off SwitchOutput: 75Ω ±10% with OUT/THRU SwitchSampling Frequency44.1 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, and 192 kHz Audio PerformanceEINMic Amp: -127 dBu or LowerFrequency ResponseMic/Line to Line Output20 Hz to 40 kHz, ±0.5 dB40 kHz 80 kHz ±5 dBMic/Line (Analog) to Digital Output (S/MUX)Fs 44.1/48 kHz: 20 Hz to 20 kHz ±0.5 dBFs 88.2/96 kHz: 20 Hz to 40 kHz ±0.5 dBFs 176.4/192 kHz: 20 Hz to 80 kHz ±5 dBSignal to Noise RatioMic/Line/Instrument Input to Line Output: 116 dBMic/Line/Instrument Input to Digital Output (S/MUX): 113 dB at FS 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz; 111 dB at Fs 96 kHzTHDMic/Line to Line Output: 0.0007%Instrument to Line Output: 0.0009%Mic/Line/Instrument to Digital Output (S/MUX): 0.001%CrosstalkMic to Line Output: 119 dBMic to Digital Output (S/MUX): 114 dB PhysicalPower12 VDC (Dedicated AC Adapter)Power Consumption16 WOperating Temperature32 to 104°F / 0 to 40°CDimensions19 x 1.8 x 9″ / 48.2 x 4.4 x 22.8 cmWeight5.7 lb / 2.6 kg Packaging InfoPackage Weight7.745 lbBox Dimensions (LxWxH)21.4 x 11.3 x 5″
