TASCAM's IF-FW/DM mkII is the first 32-channel audio interface to use a single FireWire cable to get in and out of the computer. The card is compatible with TASCAM's DM-3200 and DM-4800 digital consoles turning them into the ultimate front-end for computer workstation recording. The card supports resolutions up to 96kHz/24-bit without changing the incredible 32-in/32-out channel count.

For recording engineers and musicians who are comfortable working on a mixing console the DM-3200 and DM-4800 is the control centre for their studio. The IF-FW FireWire Interface Card is integrated into the mixer bypassing the need for expensive audio interfaces. They provide 32x32 audio and remote control over recording software like Pro Tools 9 Logic Pro Cubase Nuendo SONAR and Digital Performer adding transport jog/shuttle fader panning aux control and more. All of this control is a single button press away from normal mixer operations making DAW software control simply another fader layer of these powerful consoles for seamless workflow.

During tracking the DM-series gives engineers the flexibility that only a large console provides. The DM-4800 provides 24 great-sounding mic pres 36 digital inputs 24 groups and 32 direct outs so tracks can easily be routed into the computer. Twelve aux sends (8 on the DM-3200) means that everyone in the band can get their own headphone mix while leaving a few for effects sends. The consoles offer powerful monitoring capabilities including source switching dim mono and even speaker switching on the DM-4800. Add other interface cards for additional ADAT TDIF and AES/EBU I/O or install the powerful IF-SM/DM Surround Monitoring card for mixing in up to 6.1 surround.

The mix processing and automation capabilities of the DM-series free the computer's CPU to add tracks and plug-ins to the recording project. As recording software continues to add tracks and plug-ins get more complex you can use the DM-3200 to handle the mixing EQ compression and other processing tasks it excels at. The powerful automation system of the DM-3200 also alleviates the processing pressure on the DAW and many users prefer TASCAM's intuitive mixer automation system over even very high-end consoles.

The IF-FW/DM mkII & DM-3200/4800 combination replaces thousands of dollars of computer audio interfaces with a simple integrated solution. Your studio gets the editing and plug-in power that DAW systems deliver while keeping the flexibility and speed that recording consoles provide. Professional recording facilities know that using a mixing console with their DAW is often a more efficient flexible and better-sounding solution than working with virtual mixers. The 32-channel IF-FW/DM mkII FireWire Interface is the ultimate front end for serious computer-based recording studios.
