The Tascam Model 12 Analog Mixer with Digital Recorder is an all-in-one mixing solution combining effortless workflow with the exceptional sound from Tascam.
The Tascam Model 12 is ideal for a range of applications. Use it in your rehearsal space, and record ideas when something fits. Or use it for small-format live performance, recording, or in your studio production environment.
Perfect manipulation:
The Tascam Model 12 now features an all new adjustable output delay. This allows you to easily adjust the delay of the signal to compensate for any offset between image and sound that normally occurs during live streaming. With a range of one to 2,000 milliseconds, the system is versatile enough to support most networks and cameras. Should you desire, the delay can also be set to manipulate the main outputs, as well as the monitoring signal, or a connected video encoder.
Clean and pristine audio inputs:
Across the top of the unit is a range of connections for sending both microphones and instrument inputs. The mixer has space for 8 microphones or 10 line inputs. It also features Bluetooth so you can stream music to the Model 12 - if your device doesn't use Bluetooth then you can use it to send a CD player or MP3 player through the RCA inputs. If sound quality is a concern, the eight ultra HDDA mic preamps provide you with clean, crisp, and pristine audio tone, with extremely low noise.
Get the sound you need:
Integral to every mixer is a set of channel strips that feature a deep control set. Model 12 does not disappoint. It features a very tactile Gain knob which allows for accurate control over the input level. There is a low-cut filter, which is activated with the push of a button and with the three-way input selector, it's easier to control your input sources. And of course, there is a 3-band EQ with sweepable mid-range which allows you to fully control the output of your signals.
If you want to add effects to your channels, then Model 12 provides you with 16 editable and foot controllable multi-effects. These include reverb, delay, chorus, flanger, and many many more. And once your happy with how everything sounds, send it all through the master 4-band EQ
Route where you need to:
Send your signals wherever you need to. The Model 12 features AUX busses and pre-fader listen. Providing you with as many pro-level routing options you'll need in a mixer of this size. There is a subgroup which allows you to drive an amp. You can route to stage monitoring or send over to external processes like EQs or compressors.
Record the whole set:
The digital recording capabilities of the Model 12 set it apart from other mixers at this size. The incredible sounding digital recorder can track all 10 channels as well as a stereo main output. This gives you a great way to record rehearsals or even live sets - all sent to the internal SD card in 24-bit quality. Hook the mixer up to your computer as an audio interface and record directly into your DAW - again in 24-bit resolution and hugely low latency. This mixer can truly do it all.
