Up for grabs is my Tascam US-428 audio/MIDI interface. My recent move and interest in DIY electronics has left my music production hobby (and the gear associated with it) gathering dust, and I'd rather that it was used as it was meant to be used!
Here's the description from the Tascam website:
+++++++++++++++
TASCAM and Frontier Design Group have partnered together to create the first major innovation in USB-based audio. Start with a fully 24-bit front end, with two XLR inputs, two balanced 1/4" TRS inputs, two unbalanced 1/4" inputs (switchable to Hi-Z), and S/PDIF I/O. Four channels of audio in and two out simultaneously via USB. No opening your computer, no sound card to install - it's USB, so you can even hot-plug it.
You'll spend a lot less time mousing your mix with the US-428. It's got real tactile controls for the most-used functions in your DAW applications. Transport, mute/solo and locate keys, unlimited banks of eight faders, an EQ module that supports control of up to four bands of fully parametric EQ, plus four aux sends and a panpot. It's even got 32 channels of MIDI I/O. Use one for your keys and modules, and the other for MTC, to lock your MTC-capable tape tracks to your computer.
# PC or Mac Compatible via USB interface

# Four in (analog or S/PDIF) and two out simultaneously

It's basically a sound card, MIDI controller and I/O bank in one convenient USB module. This package includes the US-428 unit, the DC adapter, the software/driver CD and a printout of the user manual.
Functionally, the unit is in perfect shape. Aesthetically, the only flaws are some scuffs along the top edge of the unit. Pictures are available here: moodysteve/Tascam US-428 - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
This unit sold for $600 new and still fetches around $300 for refurbished units. I am asking $120 shipped in the CONUS. Paypal preferred.
Aside from my head-fi feedback, I have 100% eBay feedback that you view here:eBay My World - bahamut91
Thanks for looking!
