TASCAM knows you want true analog flavor on your DAW recordings, and we’re here to help. Your analog mixer can easily connect to your DAW using the Studio Bridge as a 24-IN/24-OUT audio interface. You can record directly into any DAW and even create a summed mix using your console and outboard gear with audio returns.

DAW Transport Controller and Dedicated Meter Bridge Software
Studio Bridge also works as a DAW transport controller. Rec/Play/Stop and Rec Ready buttons link directly to your DAW for ease of use. The control software includes a digital meter bridge which is available for PC /Mac to monitor audio levels on each channel, including the stereo master bus.

MIDI Synchronization for Your Sequencers
With MIDI In/Out ports, your favorite drum machines, sequencers, synths, and controllers can easily be integrated into any production. Unlock your creativity with your go-to analog hardware and the Studio Bridge.

Live Recording Applications
In live environments the Studio Bridge becomes your mobile recording studio when connected to your mixing console. Just one piece of gear - no complex system, no computer required.

Inputs / Outputs
With 24-INS and 24-OUTS over DB25 connectors, the Studio Bridge has more than enough I/O for tracking and mixing larger productions. Plus, no preamps means you can preserve that bold, beautiful analog signal chain you’ve put so much effort into creating.

Local Monitoring
Monitor inputs and track sources through the dedicated headphone/local monitor section on the front panel of the Studio Bridge.

Solo function
Solo any of the 24 inputs quickly by pushing shift and REC to the corresponding track. To check if any channels are in solo mode, a quick glance to the master section will reveal if the solo indicator is live.

Click out
Precision is a must. Keep your performers on time and locked in with the internal metronome and dedicated TRS click output.
