    My gosh what an incredible piece of gear you guys have made. My buddy and I jammed tonight with all our hardware/synths and recorded into this and we were then able to jam again with the recording bringing bits in and out again and adding effects over the recording. A whole world has opened up for our jamming nights. Thank you so much!!

    Can you guys make a tutorial on the DAW control and MIDI capabilities such as MIDI Clock Output? I haven't seen any tutorials on this at all and reviews of these features on online retailers say a lot of buyers are having trouble. I understand you guys must be under pressure from COVID but this would go a long way for someone like me who is still on the fence about this product. Thank you!

    Here's a tip on how to send a recorded song from the SD-card via USB to a DAW with all channels separated.

    2.) Set SYSTEM/USB AUDIO/PC

    On the Model 12, as an example after 6-8 channels for a live song have been recorded to SD card, I'm aware that the results may be exported as a "stereo mix" -- but I'd like to confirm that from the SD card you can also export each of (say 6, or 8) tracks separately, per channel, so these may be modifed in post later using a DAW. Thanks for any help!

    • @TASCAMUSA

    Can you "automate" gain throughout the track as you would on a software DAW? And can you export/bounce a project as individual tracks so you can do your final mix/access to more effects on your computer?

    • @TASCAMUSA
      @TASCAMUSA  2 роки тому +3

      Hello Mayhem Jack! When bouncing a mix, you can ride the faders to change the levels of each individual channel. It's not automation like you'd write in on your DAW, but more like the old school approach engineers would use pre-computers. Also, each channel is recorded as an individual file on the SD card - you could then import all of that into your DAW and mix and add processing as you see fit.

      @TASCAMUSA  2 роки тому

      Hello Jon! The FX can be used in live settings. If you look at the bottom right of the mixer in the master fader section you'll see the FX fader. There are a series of buttons there which will allow you to assign the FX to one or more outputs such as AUX 1, MAIN, and SUB. Just push one or more of these in to route the audio. AUX 2 is the default, but you may need to repurpose AUX 1 & 2.

    I need some help here. I have seen many helpful videos out here, but I've never seen how you can run the recorder if any to all 12 channels. If not the case, do at least 10 channels. Some say it can only record 8. If so, then 7/8 and 9/10 is stereo. So can anyone show me all of the channels being used for recording set up. Thank you in advance. Also, a second question is can the channels when set to MTR be recorded in Live Mode and played back without using the 3 way selector switch and wearing it out with time.

      Hello pEpul Etrz! Yes, you can definitely utilize the sub outputs that way. The main difference between the Main Outs and Sub Outs is just XLR vs TRS. In my personal setup, I use the Sub Outs for my monitors because the monitor controller in my studio only has TRS inputs. So, feel free to experiment and find what works best for you!

    • @TASCAMUSA
      @TASCAMUSA  3 роки тому

      Hello. If the drum track you're loading into your song is 16-bit/44.1k and you're receiving the sample rate mismatch error, that means that the song you're loading it into is not 16/44.1k. There's a couple of ways to tackle this - one being convert the file on a computer to the sample rate of the song on the Model 12, then import it. Or, start a new song and make sure to select 16/44.1k as the sample rate so the drum track matches that. However, if you've already started recording material before importing the drums, this could cause more of a headache for you.

      Hello Brian! Unfortunately, no - there is not a playlist function to make this happen. A couple of workarounds to this:
      1.) You could load the song files into your DAW and arrange them how you'd like, then bounce the file down and transfer it to the SD card, then load that file onto a track of your choosing.
      2.) If you aren't using a DAW, you could always play the songs on your phone or other device and - using either the 1/8" or Bluetooth inputs - record the songs in order directly to the Model 12.

      If you choose Click Out, on the back of the Model 12 is a 1/4" output labeled "Click". You can line out from there and input that into an open channel. Another option would be adding it to a headphone amplifier if you have your unit connected in such a way.

      There are two ways of doing it, and that's one. The other, is that there are 1/4" INSERT options on channels one and two. If you look at the back of the Model 12 you should see those directly underneath the XLR input. You can run your signal through the WA73EQ (great piece of gear, by the way) and then into the INSERT. This will effectively bypass the preamp built into the Model 12. Hope this helps!

    Great to see so many replies to questions. Mine is around mixing down and levels. MTR playback the levels seems to only show prefade so I don't know the actual level of returns and also confused by the master fader true level so I can best get final levels of the song. If I go through a mix, hitting record on the main rec button to record the mix and then export song as Stereo file. The file I bring in to my laptop the levels are usually poor and there seems to be no way to judge/know what these levels will be, am I missing something? Everything else about the Model 12 I really like, many thanks

      That is NOT enough and the manual does not mention this basic procedure. It is as follows:
      1. IMPORTANT: Bring the MAIN and SUB fader all down (to protect against sound burst);
      2. Connect the USB, install the drivers, connect the speakers to either MAIN output or SUB output (or both);
      3. Switch the 1 and 2 channel MODE to PC. Afaik, only those channels output the audio from the computer, regardless of others labeled as PC mode available as well;
      4. Pan channel 1 hard left and channel 2 hard right to get a normal stereo sound;
      5. Bring the channel 1 and 2 faders all the way up (make sure your SUB and MAIN faders are all DOWN! - step 2). This is to ensure the even level of sound in both channels, since there is no sweet spot anywhere and you can never be sure if your sound is 100% balanced in both speakers.
      6. Make sure the red "PFL/AFL" diode is off (just unpress all the buttons on the board if you are in doubt, so they are in UP position - they are not pressed down);
      7. On channels 1 and 2 Press MAIN button to direct the output into the MAIN fader (or "SUB" if you are using SUB outputs). These buttons must remain in DOWN position, or you will hear nothing;
      8. Play a soundclip, yt vid or whatever and then slowly and carefully put the MAIN/SUB fader up, until desired volume level. If you do it abruptly, you can damage your speakers, not to mention waking up half of the city. There is a slight delay between the fader movement and actual volume change. MAIN meters should light up green.
      9. Act accordingly for headphones output.
      10. Enjoy this excellent piece of equipment ad maiorem Dei gloriam!

      @@LG-di5wz by setting the USB sends points, we're referring to at what point in the the signal chain each channel's audio is sent to the computer.
      For example, a user can have the audio sent directly after the preamp (the unprocessed audio, PRE COMP), after the compressor (after the preamps and with compression, POST COMP), after the EQ (after the preamps, compressor, and EQ - POST EQ).
      With this, varying levels of signal processing can be streamed and/or tracked into your software on the computer. To do this, follow these steps:
      1.) While not in use, enter the menu and navigate to the MIXER menu.
      2.) Select the MTR/USB Send Point Menu - from here we'll have the options for every channel, so this can be completely customized.
      3.) On each channel, highlight the channel in question and press the multi-jog wheel to access that channels menu, then scroll to which selection is preferred and click the multi-jog wheel again to confirm.

    Great video, Can you remove the SD card from this unit and install it to your comp and then tranfer the master file to your comp instead of connecting a USB cable to transfer the master file to your comp? My Model 12 is not located near my comp Thank you.

    • @TASCAMUSA
      @TASCAMUSA  4 роки тому +1

      Yes, you can do that. Taking the SD card out and putting it into your computer is the same as connecting the device over USB and putting it into Storage mode

      @@Artinmotionmusic - you can definitely use both interfaces on you Mac. If you go to the Launchpad, then the OTHER menu, then Audio MIDI Setup, you can click the plus sign at the bottom left of the screen and create a new Aggregate Audio Device. This means you can link multiple interfaces together and have your system recognize it as one.
      For a step-by-step guide on this, we created a tutorial that you can find by following this link below. We used a Model 12 and a US-16x08, but you can use any interfaces you'd like. Let us know if you need any additional help!

    I don't know if this has been mentioned but is there the option of using the other knobs such as the EQ or aux sends to map in a DAW to control parameters? I know the pan and faders and solo are mapped already, but is it possible to use more of the mixer as a midi controller? Could this come in a future firmware update? The ability to control your DAW through your mixer is pretty unique so I am curious. :)

    • @TASCAMUSA
      @TASCAMUSA  4 роки тому +1

      Most of the knobs and buttons send midi messages so you should be able to map other controls within your DAW

    has anyone been able to have the model 12 syncing its internal clock to an external source connected to its MIDI din input, or sending out its clock to the MIDI out port ? Doesn't seem to work for me. Not even sure if it actually relays anything through the rest of the MIDI chain...

    I just bought it, sounds very good, my cubase is reading it but two annoying things:
    1) I can’t connect my pedal on the aux, it has only aux out, no returns?
    2) the return of my laptop is going only on channels 1 and 2 which is a waste, I can’t use those two channels for my other instruments when im producing
    If anyone has any tricks and tips for those two issues will be very much appreciated 🙏🏻

    • @TASCAMUSA
      @TASCAMUSA  3 роки тому

      Hello Francesco! Glad you're enjoying the unit so far, here's what you can do to fix those issues:
      1.) The AUX is a send only, no return. Operation for this is going to require you to send from the AUX of your choice and then bring that signal back in on an open channel. If you're recording to a DAW this shouldn't be an issue at all. But, if you're recording in standalone MTR mode, this can definitely leave you with one less channel than you anticipated. You could bounce some tracks down to counterbalance this.
      2.) As far as changing the output monitor on the Model 12, there are some options. On a Mac, you change this in the AUDIO/MIDI setup in your settings panel. With Windows, you cannot change what outputs the system sounds come from - channels 1 & 2 are your only options. Now, that only applies to system sounds. If we're talking about the return from your DAW, these can absolutely be changed. You'll need to do that in your DAW - you'll need to change whichever channels are routed to monitoring to whichever alternate output you'd like to use; then make sure those channels have been switched to PC. If this isn't working, you may need to access your DAW's I/O mapping and add those channels to the list.

Or can those 5 tracks only be 'exported' as files? Cheers
