Great review. I bought the MOTU M2 a few months back, and absolutely love it. I think it is ~$50 more than this one, so not quite as budget, but it offers 2 inputs that are both XLR and phono. I have been using Cakewalk as my DAW, and for free software, I am really impressed. Granted, it is Windows only. I would definitely love to see more content like this on your channel. Pedal reviews are awesome, but it is nice to see some additional gear reviews.
I made the mistake of buying a Tascam 2X2HR. First one of the input jacks failed and needed resoldering to the board. Then the headphone output died. As of now the unit will pass a signal into the computer but moitoring or listening via the 2X2 is not possible. All of this happened when the unit was just out of warranty. Conversely my Berhinger Euphoria is 10 years old and works fine. I wrote to Tascam about my expierence but never got a response. I'll never buy another Tascam product.
Want to start out cheap with my first time going from guitar to my laptop. I will be getting bias fx 2 standard. How will this work with the above mentioned software, and will I get it to a low enough latency to be unnoticeable?
Would this work just as an headphone amp when not connected to any PC/Mac/iOS device? Just with a usb for power of course. Have plently of old USB phone chargers around.
@@ThePedalGuy According to page 19 of the manual, it does work as a standalone device. Some options can only be accessed when connected to a PC, but once you set it all up, it works. www.tascam.eu/en/docs/US-1x2_RM_vA.pdf
Hello, I have a US 1x2 interface, but it does not connect to the PC, I have Win 10, the USB light blinks. I already reinstalled the drivers and nothing. What can I do? thank you
Actually this is one of the only usb audio interfaces in its price class that includes a loop back feature for OBS streaming so I’m sure it would be perfect for online guitar lessons.
I got one of these works fine enough with reaper but when i try to pair it with video in obs video and obs crash anyone else have this problem? Everything previously worked in obs
Thanks for checking out today's vid! I'm starting to incorporate more music tech vids into my channel so I hope to see you for the follow up vids!

Thanks Weston. I will be doing more tech videos soon. There's always an appetite for more tech content and it's in my blood, so why not?
This is something I really don't want to know about ... but really "need" to know about. You talk, I'll listen.
LOL. Fair enough. Trust me, once you get this under your thumbs it’s a walk in the park.
Yes, Please do a Demo of actual use of this unit. Seems like a GREAT tool for quick capture of original song ideas. Or MORE .. THX .. MUCH appreciated
Thanks. I’m getting the itch to shoot more of these vids
Yesssss! More, please!
Thanks
Lots of great info, thanks 👍
You bet
How about using the setup in the video?
You can hear a lot of "room" in the video. The sound is thin. Using the real setup might help.
Thanks. I've moved on from this topic so I won't be doing any follow up vids on the Tascam audio IO
Where did you get that skull "table cloth" that's probably not what it is...
Fabric glued to a board. Simple yet effective 👍
Great video! Can I use the second input line for a second mic? Thanks a lot!!!
Not in the traditional sense as it doesn’t have phantom power on the second input. You would need a mic pre if you’re using a condenser mic
@@ThePedalGuy thanks a lot for that!!!! Really appreciated!!!

Sorry to hear
Pretty good information review was degraded by annoying noise in the background.
Como puedo usar el mixing driver con la Us 4x4 Hr? quiero usar un mulitpista con plugin y en simultáneo escuchar sopotify o youtube!
im assuming its powerd by the usb since theres no wall wart that comes with it.
Yes
I have everything plugged up but I don't hear anything.
That's a bit vague. Can you elaborate?
@@ThePedalGuy i apologize. So idk if this makes sense but my mic was turned out to the opposite side. It’s working now.

Should be just fine
@@ThePedalGuy thank you
Hello.
Is it possible to select one program for loopback (discord for example) and record it separately from my system sounds?
Would this work just as an headphone amp when not connected to any PC/Mac/iOS device?
Just with a usb for power of course. Have plently of old USB phone chargers around.
Not sure. You might want to contact tascam

Hello sir, i just want to know if my nux mg-20 can work as an audio interface for recording in a computer ??i just couldn’t find out
Just had a look on the NuX website and it doesn’t work as an audio io.
¿Can I use TASCAM US-1x2HR sound interface with my (old) MacBook Pro with USB 2 ports ?
Possibly but you would need to double check with the tascam site.
Will these provide enough power for a 250ohm set of headphones? Or should I look elsewhere?
I would contact tascam in this case
@@ThePedalGuy thanks for getting back to me
Hello, I have a US 1x2 interface, but it does not connect to the PC, I have Win 10, the USB light blinks. I already reinstalled the drivers and nothing. What can I do? thank you
try different usb port, usb 2.0 ?
Does it do simultaneous multitrack recording
Most audio IO’s with multiple inputs can multitrack. This one is a 1x2 (1 in, 2 out) so I don’t think so.
How do I wire the output to my PC? Tascam US-1x2HR for midi.
It’s a usb-c connection.
Скажите Tascam us-1x2hr издаёт пищащий звук при подключении микрофона?
RAW test, please
Hope to do this soon.
@@ThePedalGuy I’m waiting...
How's it do if using during streaming guitar lessons? 🎸
Actually this is one of the only usb audio interfaces in its price class that includes a loop back feature for OBS streaming so I’m sure it would be perfect for online guitar lessons.
Cool 🎸🎸🎸
I got one of these works fine enough with reaper but when i try to pair it with video in obs video and obs crash anyone else have this problem? Everything previously worked in obs
How odd. Are you using the most recent version of OBS and the tascam ASIO driver?
Will it work on Linux?
Not that I’m aware of
Can it work on Android for streaming?
Not that I’m aware of
@@ThePedalGuy please do you have any recommendation for that?
@@ositaokoli112 I would reach out to Tascam to see if it does specially what you want it to do.
Hi, can i charge an ipad during using it with this US-1X2HR ?
A little late now. But yes. You can, with the apple's camera kit connection. I'm using it with this specific model.
