Tascam MiNiSTUDIO Personal Online Broadcast Studio w/ Recording Bundle

The TASCAM MiNiSTUDIO Personal US-32 is your complete, desktop online broadcast studio.  Featuring a professional quality audio interface and a number of unique real-time effects, the MINISTUDIO Personal delivers everything you need to set the Internet on fire.

You talkin' to me?
At the heart of every Podcast and online broadcast lies the desire to communicate. And more often than not, this communication takes the form of the human voice...and TASCAM knows a thing or two about recording the human voice. Central to the MiNiSTUDIO Personal is an XLR/combo mic/line connector and a professional quality micropone preamp. Built-in phantom power allows you to quickly and easily connect your favorite dynamic or conderser microphone...or not... For the ultimate in plug and play convenience, the MiNiSTUDIO Personal features a built-in microphone, so you're ready to talk the talk right out of the box. Simply press the ON AIR button and go to town. And to top it all off, the MiNiSTUDIO Personal features a 4-band parametric EQ, adjustable on-board compression and a digital reverb effect with a convenient front panel depth control.

Have an effect
Designed to bring an extra dimension to your podcasts and live streaming, the TASCAM MiNiSTUDIO features three assignable PON sound effect buttons. Use the included bell, buzzer and applause effects or apply your own .wav or .mp3 files for a completely customized experience. You can also set each velocity sensitive PON button to act as a one-shot sound effect, to only play while you press or to loop as long as you hold the button down. Why should the morning DJ's have all the fun?

Find your voice
Diguise your voice, fool your fans! Perhaps the most extreme feature of the MiNiSTUDIO Personal is the Voice Effects option. Simply pressing this innocent little button will instantly transform your voice in any one of a number of amazing and amusing ways. Pitch your voice up into cartoon mouse territory or pitch it down like you've joined the Dark Side. Add a spacey Echo, wobbly Chopper or go old school with the Walki-talkie-approved Radio effect. Voice Effects: crazy, wacky and a whole lot of fun.

Become an Expert
In addition to the default Easy mode of the TASCAM MiNiSTUDIO software panel is an Expert mode that can be accessed by selecting the tab along the top of the window. This exposes a more comprehensive set of controls that enable you to fine tune EQ, compression and reverb settings as well as customize the behavior of the PON sound effect buttons and the various Voice Effect options. Don't be fooled by the friendly face of the MiNiSTUDIO - underneath the shiny exterior lies a truly professional tool that proudly carries the TASCAM name.  

Your audience hears what you hear
You talk. You play music. You play games. You fire off PON sound effects and bathe your voice in the mysterious fog of a reverberant hallway. In short, you create an immersive soundscape that you want to share with your listeners. To make this dream a reality, the MiNiSTUDIO Personal US-32 supports TASCAM's unique Broadcast architecture that seamlessley mixes your voice and effects with any and all audio produced by your PC or Laptop.
