That said, a driver is required for PC users and there are advantages to downloading the Mac equivalent too, as the Software Panel it provides allows you to readily configure parameters including recording quality, which is offered at settings up to 96kHz at 24-bit resolution.

We tested the 2x2 with a Mac and it required no further mandatory drivers plug it in, select the interface via your host's audio preferences and you're good to go. Setting the unit up to work with your computer is similarly quick. Simple, compact and with a bare minimum of fuss. This is further enhanced by Tascam's promise of latency free recording. This makes it easy to balance volume for singers and instrumentalists against the track to which they're adding their recording, without the need to create a balance in your host software. To the right of the inputs, the output section provides independent Line Out and Headphone monitoring level dials, while you can balance signals between live input monitoring and the return signal coming from the computer. LEDs light green when a signal is detected for either channel, while another lights red if you over-cook levels into Peak territory. These include a Gain dial, as well as the option to switch between Mic/Line and Instrument inputs. Phantom power can be globally switched on for both via a single switch but otherwise the controls for each channel are independent. Here you'll find two recording channels which both offer combi XLR and 1/4-inch inputs. There's also an option to connect a 5V DC power supply but, if required, you'll have to purchase this separately, as Tascam don't provide you with one themselves. At the back, you'll find a modest array of essential connectors: a 1/4-inch, balanced stereo output pair (somewhat unconventionally labelled 1 and 2 rather than left and right), MIDI In and Out connectors and the all-important USB connector.
