The TASCAM DM-4800 Digital Mixer consists of 25 fully motorized, touch sensitive faders, 24
rotary encoders with ring LED indicators, a dedicated “fat” channel set of controls for instant
access to common channel settings, a large clear LCD display, and well-placed system controls.
The mixer features 24 balanced inputs; mic preamps w/ +48 volt phantom power (switchable in
groups of 4) and line inputs. Hard wired insert points are provided for the 24 channel inputs.
The DM-4800 provides 64 channel modules which can be assigned to any of the 24 output
modules. Of these 64 channel modules, 48 are “full-function” modules with 4-band EQ, digital
trim and phase, and full dynamics ;processing with compressor/expanders and gates. The
additional 16 (simple channels) are more basic in the facilities provided, but still provide full
group/buss assignment and aux sends.
Rear panel I/O include eight assignable send outputs and inputs, Balanced (XLR) Main Outs (R/L),
Unbalanced (RCA) 2-track input, 3-sets of L/R Balanced (TRS) outputs, Stereo AES/EBU Digital
I/O, Stereo S/PDIF Coax Digital I/O, ADAT Digital I/O, and 24-channels of TDIF I/O. Rear panel
external control consists of word clock (in, out, and thru), time code out (RCA), foot-switch out,
midi (in, out, and thru), RS-422, and GPI output for parallel control. Additional rear panel
connectors include connection for optional meter-bridge, cascade ports (supports two DM4800s),
4-expansion card slots, and USB 1.1 connector.
The DM-4800 provides 24 groups/busses, 12 aux-sends, and 16 assignable inserts (in addition to
the channel inserts on rear panel). The mixer incorporates digital effects, including a digital reverb
by TC Works. External effects can be looped through the assignable analog sends and returns
(then assigned to channels). The automation facilities, independent of external computer, can be
stored in standard compact flash.
