Windows 7 64 bit USB compliant driver for Tascam US 2400

thanks Mark for the info.  What I did was to buy another hard drive & install XP.  I didn't want to lose win 7 x64, so...... as soon as there's a work around with USB issue then I will just re-connect that drive & be up and running.  What did you have the co-worker try.... to get the Tascam 2400 to install and work correctly? Is he/she  using Cubase 5?  thanks, Jerry

Tascam US-2400 works fine under windows 7 both 32 and 64 bit. Im typing from my 64 bit desktop right now and I just closed down Pro-Tools 8 with my M-box2 and everything worked well. You do have to open pro-tools as administrator though for the HUI controls to function properly (but what's new?). The driver is the generic windows USB driver and it actually recognize the US 2400 BY NAME, which i thought was pretty dope.

I actually ran across this post trying to figure out how to work FL 9 with the us 2400. had the same issue in XP to get all 3 banks to work individually instead of the 2nd and 3rd to mirror the first, but thats unrelated to this post.

I know this opened in November and it's now January but for future reference, the Tascam us 2400 DOES indeed works just fine in windows 7 32 bit and 64 bit. Don't know about vista but since the drivers are essentially the same, i would image that it would work under Vista as well.

On this topic Tascam is **** big time. Why would it be the responsability of Microsoft to design an OS that complies with Tascam's device(s)??? Tascam fall in deep **** profit corporate mentality trap OF NOT SUPPORTING THEIR CUSTOMERS, IN ORDER TO MAKE MORE MONEY, which $$ will eventually fall in shareholder's and CEO's pocket. This is very bad business decision and they are not alone to fall in the same trap.

Everytime I find a company which don't support their customers, I stop to buy from them right away. That's the power of your hard earned money. I don't agree with that corporate stingy attitude at all. Unfortunately, a good idea and good product (US-2400) has become a dinosaure which will haunt the techno junk yard.

Shame on you Tascam.

I tried to use the Tascam US-2400 on my Windows 7 professional 64 bit computer with Cubase 6.5 and Pro Tools 11 and it would not work. I'm being told that the US-2400 controller works with Windows 8 because 8 has a good OS class compliant driver and the last Tascam firmware update will work with Windows 8 .If 8 can work with this device  it's a bargain. Anybody using Cubase 8 and Pro Tools 11 successfully with Windows 8?
