For musicians and production studios, the TASCAM 112MKII provides a 2-head, cost-effective cassette deck that is ideal for mastering and mixdown. The direct-drive transport provides optimal tape speed stability, which keeps the wow and flutter problems found on other cassette decks to a minimum. The gear and clutch input controls make level adjustments easy by allowing you to lock the controls together or use them independently. The 112MKII also features a parallel port for external control and an optional balanced connector kit, making it flexible enough to integrate into any production studio.
