Tascam IF-FW, IF-DM owner manual Varispeed pitch

Please note that when running at these track count and sampling rates, some DAW software will hit a limit in terms of hard disk throughput before the driver or FireWire limits are reached. Please experiment with hard disk caching and read-ahead settings if you are experiencing drop-outs or unexpected stops in playback. This is especially noticeable with slower hard drives, such as the ones found in the Apple Mac Mini and notebook computers in general.

The DM-3200 and DM-4800 can run at non-standard Sample Rates when locked to an external clock.

The IF-FW/DM MKII will attempt to follow along, but it has lower limits than the host mixer.

Here are the supported pitch ranges.

•44.1kHz : -3.0% to +3.0%

• 48kHz : -3.0% to +3.0%

•88.2kHz : -1.0% to +1.0%

• 96kHz : -1.0% to +1.0%

Outside of these ranges, the audio may become distorted, or the mixer will report “Driver not locked”, with the audio muted.
