Tascam USB-US-144

USB Four-Channel Audio/MIDI Interface with Digital I/O

The follow-up to our mega popular US-122, the new US-144 delivers everything you’d want in a portable audio/MIDI interface.

Record four tracks at a time and monitor them with zero latency. Whether you have a PC or a Mac, your song ideas go down in real time, real easy. Its size means you can take it anywhere you take your laptop, yet it’s packed with features that make buying it an audio no-brainer. High quality mic inputs, digital SPDIF input and output, MIDI input and output, 96kHz/24-bit recording (better than CD quality)-all the stuff you’d want without the fluff you wouldn’t (if you’re fine with two channels and you don’t need the SPDIF I/O, have a look at the US-122L).

The US-144: the answer to your recording needs.
