Note: I have only successfully tested this on an RS819 running DSM 7.2-64570 Update 3.

1. ssh into your new Synology via your normal user account, e.g. ssh userName@synologyIp.
2. Enter su -i and, when prompted, enter the password you just entered for ssh access. You should now be root.
3. Follow the instructions here. For posterity, I've listed the short version here, but I urge you to not only read the link's instructions, but also to inspect the shell script in the following step prior to running it.
4. Execute the following command: curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ta264/2b7fb6e6466b109b9bf9b0a1d91ebedc/raw/b76a28d25d0abd0d27a0c9afaefa0d499eb87d3d/get-docker.sh | sh
5. Once you see the message Done. Please add your user to the Docker group in the Synology GUI and reboot your NAS., do so by navigating to Control Panel/User & Group, select your normal user account that you used to ssh into the Synology in step 1, select Edit, go to User G

Problem: Samba is installed, set up, your smb.conf looks fine, but you still can't log in from another computer/your credentials are being refused?

Solution: Remember to set up an SMB password via smbpasswd -a $user

Note that I have only tested this with macOS 13.4.

1. Plug in both the power and USB cables of the Tascam, but don't power it on. It should be in "standby" mode with a green USB light, but the "power" light should only be dimly lit as opposed to fully lit.
2. Press and hold down the "Sel" and "Aux 2" buttons. While holding them down, power on the unit; you should see the Aux 2 button blink 5 times. This means that the unit is in "Sonar Mode."
3. Open Reaper's Preferences and navigate to Control/OSC/web under the Plug-ins section.
4. Create 1 Mackie Control Universal device. Set its input and output to Port 1 of the Tascam.
5. Create 2 Mackie Control Extender devices.
6. Set the I/O of the first extender to Port 2 of the Tascam, and set the offset to 8.
7. Set the I/O of the second extender to Port 3 of the Tascam, and set the offset to 16. Everything should now be working!

3. In Cubase's MIDI port setup window, uncheck all the Tascam US2400 ports from the "In all MIDI" column.
4. Create 3 Mackie Control devices in Cubase's Studio Setup window. Assign the input and output of Mackie Control 1 to port 1 of the Tascam 2400. Repeat this for MCs/ports 2 and 3.
5. Be sure to select the "Reset" button in each of the Mackie Control device windows.

Everything should now be working!
