TASCAM makes recording and playback products for music, professional audio, broadcast and film. For more than 30 years, TASCAM has developed products for every segment of the sound and music industry. From the high-end audio professional in a major post-production studio to the novice or hobbyist at home, TASCAM is everywhere. We are a company committed to providing our customers audio/video solutions that enable breakthroughs by using sound in ways that are as exciting as they are accessible. In short, we provide tools that let people translate their creativity into reality. After virtually creating the home recording scene during the early 1970s, TASCAM went on to achieve recognition for pioneering products in the professional recording arena as well. Our legacy of product development and innovation is reflected in the sheer number of industry firsts. As evidenced by the awards and professional recognition we've received, TASCAM products are clearly in a class by themselves. Our MMR-8 digital audio dubber for the motion picture industry won an Oscar® at the Scientific and Technical Academy Awards in 2001 - based largely on its contribution to the Dolby Surround EX final mix for "The Lord of the Rings." TASCAM also won Emmy Awards in 1995 (for Outstanding Achievement in Engineering Development for the TASCAM DA-88 Digital Multitrack Recorder) and 2000 (for Outstanding Achievement in Engineering Development for the MMR-8 and MMP-16).

Masterdisk, founded in 1973 and owned and operated by expert engineer Scott Hull since 2008, is “one of the most enduring mastering facilities in the world” (Mix magazine). The NYC studio has mastered many of the world’s most famous records, and continues to master for major labels, indie labels and independent artists. Masterdisk masters for vinyl as well as digital: they have one of only a few existing Neumann VMS-80 lacquer cutting lathes on-site, and the expert engineers to use it to the best of its formidable capabilities.
