I wasn’t sure if I was going to cover this topic or not because I don’t do it anymore. I have 2 DP-24’s, which basically gives me a DP-48 when I sync them using MIDI, so I can avoid bouncing tracks. However, there are more reasons to bounce tracks other than just track limitations, so I decided to cover this topic anyway and share the results. I hope this video serves useful.

@@PowercoatMusicwaaait, does my DP24 have midi?!... how does that even work?! why would I use midi, like, what would it do? why would you need midi for stuff like synths?
Did the exact same thing ,used two crappy stereo units, and used the tape decks with a 4 channel radio shack mixer in between, and did it that way, then got all the rest like he said 4 track machine, then a better one ,then all to this ! But man if only we had this stuff back then would have been awesome ! you kids got it easy today ! But then where's the music scene today ? nothing like back then ! you were motivated to make it big like your stars ! now there's nothing but pop star status !
Thank you for your input Clear and precised. I did the two tape decks as well. Man, the noise. Tascam was my saviour. Shame my music didn't Mach up to the technology.
Hello Powercoat, Bouncing tracks on the DP24 or DP32 can easily be remixed! Let’s say you want to bounce source tracks 2,3,4, to track 1 You will need to clone the source tracks to a virtual track. You will need three tracks of the same type available. If not, create virtual tracks on say 5.6,7. (You can Create more Mono tracks if necessary) Next, clone tracks 2 to 5, 3 to 6, 4 to 7. Next create virtual tracks on 2,3, and 4. Now, copy tracks back 5 to 2, 6, to 3, 7 to 4 Now, bounce tracks 2,3 and 4 to track 1 Create a clean virtual track on 2,3, and 4. Now, proceed with your mix. If you ever want to remix the bounced tracks, load the virtual track you used on 2,3 and 4 and bounce again! When done, just reload the virtual track to get latest copy. This way, you now have have nearly a 240 track recorder with the dp24. Also, using this method, you can bounce tracks to one of the source tracks.
If I'm understanding your question as intended, when you bounce your merging 2 tracks into 1. With this, the sonic quality of each track is maintained but the settings are now subject to the newly merged track. Thanks so much for watching.
Hi. I’ve questions. 2: I have a Cooper PPS-2 MIDI sync. Can I use it to sync two DP recorders or would I need two PPS-2s? 2: I suppose I can stripe one channel on the DP then use it to sync an SR-16 drum machine or MIDI workstation. 3: Is there a way to use it to sync a VST from a computer? Thank you for being so helpful. I’ve been lost in DAW world for years, always distracted and frustrated. You’ve given my new hope!
If you haven't already, check out my video "Tascam DP24/DP32 SD Digital Portastudio: SYNC to MIDI (No Hardware Required)", on this channel. That should help with your ideas. Also, I wouldn't think of it as syncing VSTs specifically, just systems. 1 PPS-2 can sync 2 DPs. I master, 1 Slave. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿
Also, the DP32 SD is now $499 on Amazon. $599 everywhere else I can find. I wonder if they are dropping the 32 to help push the new 12 channel board/recorder. The Portastudio looks better for my needs but I will take a closer look. Thanks again!
Excuse my ignorance.....1.does the track you are bouncing to have to be a free track...and 2. If so, can you bounce any number of tracks to the bounce track?
No. The track you are bouncing to does not need to be a free track but you will record over what's already there. Track bouncing allows you to collect signals of multiple tracks and use them to perform new mono or stereo recording. In this way, you can virtually record more than 24 tracks. Note, however, that the original tracks cannot be separated again. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿
Hi, I have been writing and learning every instrument for my music for almost 30 years, I use a Boss br-600 because I love the guitar settings and its easy to use, need to record and make an album, I play too much to be the engineer and I am very mediocre at it anyway lol is im in NJ , can you tele how to get recording and if its worth anything what to do ?
That’s a great question. If you have a DP-24 then you’ve started in the right place. I’ve spent a lot of time creating videos to try to help in this area. My best suggestion to you is to check out the DP Playlist on this channel. Lots of great information there on how to record and use that unit to get professional results. Also, I strongly suggest you check out the “Simply Explained” Playlist on this channel as well. This should get you off and running in the right direction. Thanks so much for watching and sharing. 👍🏿
The truth will set you free, right? I only use a DAW if I'm working with a client who does and demands it. Otherwise, I only use my DP-24s to record and produce with as that's what works best for me. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿
@@PowercoatMusic Yes, I have a working head phone jack still no sound . I tried the external speakers jack still no audio sound , however the meters are active when I push play.
i used to use the same exact method of recording with two boomboxes! id record on the small Sony, and playback on the much bigger and bassier Yamaha boombox! 😵💫🤙🆗🆒

How exactly did you sync them . DP48 Sounds Awesome

What u did as a kid was almost genius, that's amazing, I did kind of the sane with 2 radios making mixtapes before I ever knew how real dj's did it..

Clear and concise as ever. Very helpful, especially for bouncing on mono. I didn't know about the panning!
Great video. I am so glad you provide these instructional videos on the Tascam machines.
Thanks so much for watching. 👍🏿
Love your videos. You explain things simple and in right order (in my opi)... Thank you.
Thanks for watching. 👍🏿
Your excellent at explaining things and i surely appreciate you man, thank you sooo much
Thank you for your input

I did the two tape decks as well.
Man, the noise.

So many of us feel the same way. Thanks for watching and sharing. 👍🏿

This way, you now have have nearly a 240 track recorder with the dp24. Also, using this method, you can bounce tracks to one of the source tracks.
Thanks for watching and sharing this information with us all. It's appreciated. 👍🏿
Can the EQ settings for each individual track be bounced as well?
If I'm understanding your question as intended, when you bounce your merging 2 tracks into 1. With this, the sonic quality of each track is maintained but the settings are now subject to the newly merged track. Thanks so much for watching.

Just curious, do you use both standalone and DAW and be honest. lol

Out of nowhere my , Tascam DP 32 midi version, has no audio sound on playback . Do I need to replace some transistors ?
Does your head phone jack work? Try the other outputs with different speakers to make sure.
@@PowercoatMusic Yes, I have a working head phone jack still no sound . I tried the external speakers jack still no audio sound , however the meters are active when I push play.
@@Peacze Push your "Monitor Select" button to go through the options for routing your output signals.
YOU ~ SOOO ~ ROCK ! !

No luck here. A little convoluted. I'll keep trying.
Read the manual.
.... still too complicated!!!😵
Read the manual.
@@svenjansen2134 ......IT was reading the manual, 17 times, that led me to looking at this nonsensical crap in the first place!!.
