It seemed to every now and again. Just suddenly would for one take and then wouldn't work again.
I didn't realise at first 'cos I wasn't actually trying to record songs with it, I was just recording a few tones and stuff, getting used to it, different inputs and all that sort of thing.
Then as soon as I went to record a song in time with a beat last weekend there was obviously a problem.
Just had a good chat with the bloke from Anderton's - he said that "off the record" they're known to be a bit problematic, not from a physical breakage point of view, but that they just don't work for some people on some systems.
I'm getting a Focusrite 18i20 instead now which I am pretty sure will work as my 2i2 is fine. Might put my drum recording back a month as it cost me an extra 100 quid! But I got paid earlier this week.
Just reading through the reviews of the Tascam online, most of them are good as you'd expect, but there's a sizeable group of 1* reviews from people who've just not managed to get it to work with their system for whatever reason.
Its quite interesting when you look at the reviews:

They're either good from people it just works for and terrible from people who just can't get it up and running!
