I have a Tascam Model 24 multitrack mixer. It uses SD cards for recording. However not just any SD card will work. The Transcend 300S (TS256GSDC300S) is the one I use. In fact, I've bought it twice now.
It works with the mixer flawlessly. No latency. The Tascam Model 24 immediately recognizes the card, formats it and then it's ready to record.
I'm doing this review to help myself remember the steps in arming the mixer for record. I only use it once or twice a year so I always forget how to do the steps. So this is for my future self.
Self, in order to record to the SD card you:
1. Create new song by pressing MENU then NEW SONG on the jog wheel (name it if you wish).
2. Press MENU again to get back to 00h00m00s screen.
3. Arm the track or tracks you want recorded.
4. Finally press RECORD button. Voila!
Now back to everyone else. The Transcend 300S can record all 24 tracks from this mixer with ZERO issues. I've recorded several 2-3 hour shows and it works just as you'd expect. Each track shows as an individual WAV file when you transfer from the SD card. I record in 16it 44.1khz. Again, it will record all 24 tracks for hours without a hiccup.
I'm not too concerned about the read speed to my PC. The card states up to 100MB/s. It works with my Tascam mixer, and that's enough for me.
100% recommended.
