About the DM-3200
The DM-3200 provides a fully comprehensive range
of I/O facilities. Almost all inputs and internal busses
are “soft”, allowing connections to be patched inter-
nally (naturally, routing configurations may be stored
and recalled).
Inputs
For analog input, the DM-3200 provides
sixteen balanced inputs, with both high-quality mic
amps, and balanced line connections as well as ana-
log insert points (both mic and line connections may
be made to the same channel at the same time, but
only one may be used at a time). There are also four
assignable send outputs and inputs for external loop
effects.
The digital side comprises three TDIF I/O ports, as
well as ADAT “lightpipe” I/O, and two pairs of ste-
reo S/PDIF or AES/EBU inputs and outputs.
Two TASCAM-standard card slots provide I/O
expansion capabilities, with a variety of digital or
analog options being available, including a FireWire
expansion card for direct high-speed bidirectional
communication between a DAW and the DM-3200.
Channel modules
The DM-3200 provides 48
channel modules. These may be freely assigned
internally to the 16 buss modules.
Of these 48 channel modules, 32 are “full-function”
modules with 4-band EQ, digital trim and phase, and
full dynamics processing with compressor/expanders
and gates. The other 16 are more basic in the facili-
ties provided, but still provide full buss assignment
and aux sends.
The first 32 EQ-enabled channels can have two
sources (input and return), which may be freely
assigned, and can be switched, depending on whether
the project is in the recording or tracking stage. See
the section on assignments (“Routing & assignment”
on page 46) for details of how channel sources are
assigned,
