TASCAM dp-004

The DP-004 offers four tracks of CD-quality digital recording. Users can simultaneously record two sources at once and playback and mix up to four tracks at once. The Bounce feature makes it possible to free tracks by creating downmixes internally. The four tracks can then be edited, mixed, and mastered to a dedicated internal stereo track.

The DP-004 is the perfect companion for beginners, songwriters, composers, bands, music teachers, language teachers, or school music programs
