Each track and input offers 3-band EQ and three effect sends for sound and dynamics variation. The 2488neo’s editing functions enables the user to edit their audio tracks with high precision. Sections can be copied and pasted, cut and moved, tracks can be duplicated and up to 999 steps can be undone and redone. Alternative takes allow users to select the best take from multiple takes of a recording session.
