Among the features of this integrated mixer are the acclaimed TASCAM multitrack recorder, the USB audio/MIDI interface, DAW control functions and the exclusive podcasting capability, which includes mix-minus inputs and smartphone inputs.

Tascam Model 12 is a product worth talking about, so we are going to explain a little more about the details that set this compact integrated mixer apart.

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

The basic DAW control of external devices (Faders, Mutes, Pans, Solos, Record Arm, Play, Record, Stop, FF/Rew, Jog), using HUI/MCU protocol emulation, is integrated for the touch control of most major DAWs.

Model 12 incorporates several features for podcasting and Internet streaming, such as mix-minus, smartphone input, multiple microphone-ready channels, Bluetooth pairing, dual headphone monitoring and multitrack internal recording. Use the Model 12 as a versatile live production recorder, USB audio interface and live streaming tool.

The TASCAM Ultra-HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) microphone preamplifiers with -128dB EIN (Equivalent Input Noise) ensure low natural noise and high-end sound quality. In addition, Hi-Z line level inputs are included on all channels for direct instrument input.
