DA-3000SD2-Channel DSD/PCM Master Recorder and AD/DA Converter

The TASCAM DA-3000SD combines a top-of-the-line reference-grade master recorder and AD converter for high-sample rate musically correct recording. Utilizing premium components, the DA-3000SD carries on the legacy as the industry standard in professional master recording and top level AD/DA conversion for recording engineers.

Professional Stereo Master Recorder with Superior AD/DA Converters

Following in its critically acclaimed predecessors footsteps, the DA-3000SD is a must-have master recorder and professional grade monitoring device in a single rack mountable unit.

Bouncing a recording in a DAW alone cannot capture the quality afforded by the DA-3000SD as a master recorder. When used as an AD/DA conversion unit in a DAW production environment, noise free superior monitoring is second-to-none as the clarity and depth of audio is enhanced and allowed to shine

Masterful Audio with PCM 192kHz, DSD 2.8/5.6MHz Recording

For recording, the DA-3000SD supports audio capture at 192 kHz for PCM as well as 2.8 and 5.6 MHz for DSD, the highest quality recording format commercially available. Based on project needs, users can select which recording method best matches the music’s characteristics and save the settings. Multiple units can be synchronized for sample-accurate recording and playback, allowing for the creation of a DSD multitrack recording environment. Recording directly to SD card media makes transportation and storage of sessions simple and easy-to-handle.

Utilizing High-Quality Audio Circuitry for AD/DA Conversion

An EI core transformer with separate windings for the digital and analog circuits is used in the power supply section, while the output audio circuit has a dual monaural configuration with two high-quality mono circuits to achieve an exceptional sonic profile. Additionally, all stages of the audio circuits have a balanced configuration to reduce noise on both input and output paths. Equipped with a TCXO (temperature compensated crystal oscillator), the DA-3000SD’s clock generator boasts an accuracy of +/- 1ppm for digital audio processing with no jitter.
