Why Thunderbolt?
Thunderbolt is the interconnection technology of the future. More than twice as fast as USB 3.0 and twenty times faster than USB 2.0, it allows digital signal to be routed to and from your computer at astonishingly high speeds for virtually instantaneous audio recording and playback. The higher bus power carried by Thunderbolt also enables the use of high-end electronic components for better sound quality, plus stable phantom power for connected condenser microphones.
Enhanced Software Functionality
TAC-2 MixEfx is a free Macintosh application designed specially by Zoom for the TAC-2R. With TAC-2 MixEfx, you can set mix parameters and add high-quality effects such as reverb and echo. Other features include a low cut filter, phase reversal, and Auto Gain control for each input. TAC-2 MixEfx even provides three memory slots for saving and instant recall of user settings.
Onstage
Take your performance to the next level. Use the TAC-2R onstage to get the best sound quality from your laptop. With its Thunderbolt speed, high quality converters, and rugged chassis, you can trust the TAC-2R to deliver superior audio night after night.
In the studio
The TAC-2R gives you all the tools you need to create great audio. Flexible routing options allow you to use a variety of microphones and instruments, with high-quality preamps to ensure crystal clear sound. There's even Direct Monitoring for zero latency overdubbing.
In your home and office
Enhance the audio you enjoy everyday. Plug your headphones or speakers into the TAC-2R instead of your computer's audio outputs and enjoy streamed high-resolution audio�all the way up to 24-bit/192kHz�in full fidelity.
