TASCAM Model 12 12-Channel Compact Recording Mixer

Tascam’s Model 12 is a compact all-in-one integrated mixer designed for music and multimedia creators, songwriters and performers. Features include Tascam’s critically acclaimed multi-track recorder, USB audio/MIDI interface, DAW control functions, and unique podcasting capability including mix-minus and smartphone inputs. The Model 12 supports your creative process, production, and workflow from start to finish including podcasting.

The Model 12’s seamless integrated workflow facilitates less focus on the technical and more on the creative. The comfortable, familiar feel of the Model 12’s 60mm faders and 1-knob compressor, 3-band EQ, and Tascam’s high-quality reverb effects allow fast tweaking of mixes and tones.

Tascam’s Ultra HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) mic preamps with EIN of -128dB ensure natural low noise and high-grade sound quality. Additionally, Hi-Z line level inputs are included on all channels for direct instrument input.

The Model 12’s intuitive internal 12-track recorder records WAV files of up to 24-bit/48 kHz audio quality directly to an SD card, with 10-track playback. Supporting metronome, punch-in/out, and overdubbing functions, the internal recorder also allows WAV files to be imported directly into a DAW for further editing or production.

An onboard USB Type-C connector facilitates connecting a computer to the Model 12 for playback and recording utilizing a wide range of popular DAWs. Basic external DAW control (Faders, Mutes, Pans, Solos, Record arm, Play, Record, Stop, FF/Rew, Jog) using HUI/MCU protocol emulation is integrated for tactile control of most major DAWs.

Standard MIDI in/out connectors allow connection with a wide range of keyboards, drum machines, controllers, and other sources that employ MIDI connectors. The Model 12 can also be used for synchronized operation of multi-track recorders and other external devices like drum machines.
