Description
Tascam M-224 24-channel mixer for sale.
NOTE we don’t add the Direct Out Mod to this model as we are not convinced the power supply can handle it (these have the same spec supply as the 16 channel version and it’s not worth the risk of doing the work only to find out it can’t handle the strain from all the extra outputs). If you want Direct Outs on a Tascam M-series then get in touch for an M-208 or M-216.
Serviced including recapping of power supply and cleaning of all pots, sliders and switches. Defective parts are replaced with original spec parts from another donor mixer. Some crackly may be possible after a period of not being used but this should clear.
See photos of the top and rear panels for information on the functions and connections available.
Sound-wise these are, as you might expect from their era and high quality manufacture, great. Warmth and character are instantly added to whatever you put through, the overdriven sound is lovely, and the 4-band EQ gives excellent control.
NOTE: All the XLR outputs on these are set up for US pin configuration and cannot be switched. For UK/EU use you will need six XLR pin hot switchers. Let us know if you need assistance sourcing these. They are not expensive.
Condition
In very good cosmetic condition with minor wear to the face. A couple of knobs are missing their caps. The end cheeks are clean with some wear and damage around the edges and corners. Please see photos or get in touch if you require more information on condition.
Voltage Information
100v Japanese model - it will run on North American mains 115/120v without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power); however, a step-down transformer is recommended for extended use. A step-down transformer is required in the UK/EU. We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers and can supply a high quality UK-made unit if required.
Tax
For sales in UK the price will include 20% VAT. Buyers elsewhere may incur VAT or other local taxes on import.
