Contact your local TASCAM representative for the latest information.The TM-D4000 is an incredibly cost effective mixer, and isflexible enough to fit into a number of applications.Personal and Project StudiosThe TM-D4000 is a wonderful centerpiece for studios basedaround MDMs (Modular Digital Multitracks). A digital mixerminimizes the A/D and D/A conversions, allowing the highestquality audio available. The TDIF and Lightpipe cards comewith their associated machine control built in, offering directcontrol right from the surface of the console. The addedvalue of all the dynamic processors, extensive EQ and builtin effects offer mix control far beyond anything found inanalog consoles many times the price. Plus, dynamicautomation capabilities with the external Windows 95/98computer and surround sound capabilities solidify the mixer'srelevance well into the future of DVD audio delivery.Audio for VideoThe TM-D4000 has 8 high quality mic preamps and surroundmixing capabilities, offering a powerful solution for monitormixes in ADR and Foley stages, as well as recording simplesurround stems for later assembly. The TM-D4000 has astandard 9-pin port for controlling video decks, and canbe equipped with AES/EBU cards for interfacing with mostany digital audio workstation. For larger projects, up to fourTM-D4000s can be cascaded providing up to 128 channels.Page 1 of 5TM-D4000_TECHDOC_030100.pdf• 32 Mono & 2 Stereo Inputs• 8 Busses & 6 Auxiliary Sends• 24 Bit A/D and D/A Converters• 8 High Quality Analog Inputs with XLR & TRS inputs• 4 Band Parametric EQ and Dynamic Processor onEach Channel, Aux Return, and Stereo Output• 100mm Long-Throw Motorized Faders• Stereo Effect Processor• Built-in Full Featured Machine Control• SPDIF and AES/EBU Digital I/O• Built-in Cascade Port Supporting Up To 4 Mixers• Surround Capabilities for 5.1 (Dolby Digital™) andLCRS (Pro Logic™) Systems• Libraries for EQ, Dynamics, Effects and Snapshots• Dynamic Automation Package Included forWindows 95/98 computers• Option Cards Provide I/O in 8 Channel Banks InAnalog, TDIF, Lightpipe, and AES/EBU FormatsPRODUCT OVERVIEWAPPLICATIONS SPECIFICATIONSMIC Inputs (CH 1-8):Line Inputs (CH 1-8):Insert Connections:OL LED (CH 1-8):Stereo In:Aux Sends 1-6:Stereo Output:2 Track Return:CR Monitor Outputs:Studio Monitor Outputs:Phones:Digital In/Out 1:Digital In/Out 2:Sample Frequencies:Supported Fs Variances:Word Sync In and Out:RS-422:To Host:MIDI Ports:TC In:Cascade In/Out:To Meter:Power Requirements:A/D, D/A Converters:Overall Frequency Response:Overall THD:Power Consumption:Dimensions (mixer only):Weight:Standard Accessories:Optional Accessories:Balanced XLR, +67dB Max Gain (Pad Off)Balanced TRS, +39dB Max Gain (Pad Off)Unbalanced TRS(T=Send, R=Return, S=Ground)Lights at -3dB Full ScaleUnbalanced 1/4", +4dBu NominalBalanced 1/4", +4dBu NominalBalanced XLR, +4dBu NominalUnbalanced RCA, -10dBu NominalBalanced XLR, +4dBu NominalUnbalanced RCA, -10dBu NominalUnbalanced 1/4", +4dBv NominalUnbalanced 1/4", +6dBu Nominal1/4" Stereo, 40 Ohm, 50mW per sideXLR, AES/EBU (AES3-1992 data format)RCA, SPDIF (IEC60958 data format)44.1kHz & 48kHz, accurate to ±50ppmFollows up to ±6% base sample ratesBNC, TTL level, 75 OhmFemale DB9, conforms to RS-422 specFemale DB9, conforms to RS-422 specIN, OUT, THRU on 5 pin DINsUnbalanced RCA, 20 kOhm, -30dBVDB25, uses optional PW-4000CS cableDB37, connects to optional MU-4000US/Canada: 120VAC, 60HzEurope: 230VAC, 50HzAustralia: 240VAC, 50Hz24 bit, 44.1kHz, 48kHz20Hz-20kHz, +0.5dB, -1dB<.1% (Nominal Levels)60W644x237x703mm, 25.4" x 9.3" x 27.7"26kg (57.2 lbs)Moxa CI-132 ISA card, Serial Cable,Automation SoftwareIF-AN4000 (Analog), IF-AE4000 (AES/EBU),IF-TD4000 (TDIF), IF-LP4000 (Lightpipe)MU-4000 (Meter Bridge)PW-4000CS (Cascade Cable)The TM-D4000 is TASCAM's third generation of digital mixers,benefiting from seven years' development of digital mixingtechnology. The TM-D4000 is a 32 channel, 8 buss, 6 auxiliarydigital mixer with built in effects and surround mix capabilities.For users wanting even more channels, up to four TM-D4000scan be cascaded with the built-in cascade port. A flexible I/Ostructure and extensive built-in machine control capabilitiesallow users to integrate this mixer into many live and recordingsituations. Single layer buttons and a large, clear screen offerintuitive navigation of this feature packed mixer. Libraries forEQ curves, dynamics, snapshots, and effects allow frequentsettings to be recalled at any time. Dynamic automationcan be accomplished with the included Windows 95/98software application.
