Hi guys! You may have noticed some fancy affiliate links here in this description. If you purchase something from these links, I might receive a small percentage from that purchase. It’s the company’s way of saying “Aw. Thanks for sending your friends our way!” The best part is that it doesn’t change the cost to you at all. So, we all win!
For those that didn't know the model 12 is a digital mixer. The 16 and 24 are both analog mixers.
Hmm, ordered the 16 today. Guess it doesn't matter. Like have 16 input channels .
I love how you humbly talk about the gear as if you are kind of novice, but about halfway through the video it's obvious you really know your stuff!!! Makes it great for people who are just getting started and those of us with some experience! Excellent video!!
Hello Cato - That's an EXCELLENT video. Esay to understand and very informative. So many video tutorials I watch I exit within 2 minutes but not yours. Thanks for posting!
I’ve had my Model 16 for over a year now and have had no issues with it. Loving your videos also
Nice video loved the song cant wait to hear the process of mixing
Great video and nice work with the cozy concert, seems to be a great fit for that purpose. I got this board last week and am waiting for a compatible SD card, which the one I had obviously was not.
Thanks, Cato - this is really helpful for myself and some of my friends. 🙂
Would love to see more videos on this workstation! Have you considered tutorials on the process of transferring the audio to protools and even more on how to use protools ! I have only recorded analog in a vintage studio environment and know very little about digital. I used to use Tascam 216 mixing board and 38 reel to reel - can't believe I sold them bc I was moving! But that's how long ago! There were no women in the audio work force back then ! Want to reenter recording now and just ordered the Tascam 24 since it had analog components. Great job on video and commentary/tutorial!! Many thanks, Kay
Great video! I’ve just received the Model 16. Still have to set it up. Extra stoked after seeing this! Really excellent and sunny run through of all the features. The only thing I didn’t pick up was the inserts. My current mixer Yamaha mg12xu doesn’t have an insert on a channel.. but that’ll be easy to find out. Subscribed👍
Edit: please do some more hardware content 😊🙏
Soundboard…..Well you every day learn something new!
Great review. I think you touched on a lot of things that I would consider when making this type of purchase. Your pros and cons were pretty on point.
If you’re looking for another mixer in this space, I would suggest the Zoom Livetrak l-20. There are upsides and downsides vs the Tascam. You’ve inspired me to make a longer form review on that one. If I ever get it finished, I’ll link back to this one. It improves on a couple of the issues you had with the Tascam, but brings in a few more. It’s also a digital mixer so it a shared channel strip.
I got mine for a rehearsal setup and the Tascam had just come out around the time I purchase the Zoom mixer, and I needed more monitor mixes than I could get from the Tascam.
I haven’t been hands on with the Tascam 16, so I can’t really speak to the quality comparison. From what you said, it seems like the Tascam is a bit more robust. I’d say check out the specs and let me know how you think it compares. I know the cost is a bit higher, but it does give you a few different options.
Great video, really detailed and from a working person’s point of view. Thanks.
I began loving my board after this. Love from England 🥰🥰🥰
Yay! I'm glad it had that effect for you - it's a great board!
I have used these mixers as a front end for sampling into MPCs and this line of mixers fit that function so well
Yep. I do the same thing. Model 12 into MPC X all day.
would have been a great intro if I hadn't bought one already, but I agree this is a great analog board, and offers a hands on approach to recording and mixing. Works great with Ableton and I am learning to use volume faders more than I would in the DAW with a mouse. Thanks.
Hi Cato, Great review on the Tascam 16 hybrid mixer. I hope I was not annoying you too much when I was trying to correct your EQ on the live stream, if so I am sorry. You can see by the live stream feed how muffled the low end was, luckily people watching on phones didn't hear much of that due to the phone speakers response. I didn't know your setup then (mic in front of a speaker) or I would have suggested that you raise the phone (mic) on a mic stand or something to horn level as to not pick up as much of the woofer. Then the board EQ wouldn't have to dip and effect the recording file. Love your channel, keep up the good work ---- Dennis
Hey man, thanks! And no worries. Honestly, the live stream was the lowest priority this night. I had to prioritize the recording and the live audio for all the people that were physically there. Before that, I had wasted some time trying to stream from a GoPro attached to a Rode mic, which kept disconnecting. I figured it was still worth doing though (got some feedback from people saying they'd still like to see the stream, even if it's from a cell phone). So, I still set up the cell phone. I literally had to ask friends to tape the phone to a space heater to get the phone that was live-streaming into position. It's not that I couldn't think of better setups, it's that I didn't have time and it wasn't high on the priority list.
Hey Cato - nice meeting you at NAMM - thanks for the great video!
Hey, thanks - and nice to meet you too! And it's nice to see you on here, thanks for hanging out on my channel!
I have had a Model 24 for a while now. I LOVE it. The preamps sound fantastic.
Yeah, they're great! I've been eyeing the model 24 too....
@@CatoNoise The nice part about the 24 is it's 100% analog signal path. I know the 12 is 100% digital after the pre amp. Not sure about the 16, but I think it's digital as well. Maybe the compressor is analog? Not sure. I mix professionally and do live sound on the side so once I saw the capabilities of the console it was a no brainer! First show I did with it the actors (I'm in NYC, I work a lot of tech for theater companies) and the producers asked right away what was different. They even heard the quality difference. For the price the entire Model line is a steal. I know some people have issues with the built in MTR (Multi Track Recording) processing but from what I have heard it's only when you overload the system by pressing the transport controls too fast. I haven't used that particular feature yet but I do intend to. As long as you don't try to rush it I've heard they are quite stable. Thanks for making the video these consoles don't get enough screentime!
I've used my Tascam Model 24 in all settings: live as a stand alone mixer, a recorder (recording live performances), as well as sending audio from my DAW to the board. I don't mind that I can not control the DAW per say with the board like the Model 12, but I like how I can "Print" a Mix back into the DAW with actual panning and volume automation that I can do on the Board. My only gripe is I wish there was a bit more option to use Outboard gear as there are only two insert channels if I wanted to incorporate that but I bought the board mainly to record live performances or rehearsals. Great overview!
Awesome
Awesome Video, focussing on the important stuff. Love it. Besides: Did any of these Artists ever wrote a happy Song just for fun?
I just got a Model 16 recently and messed around with it some... it's very nice. The master EQ is powerful and the compression is also nice. This is quality gear. I feel like I made a great choice VS the Zoom L20 for a multitrack recorder.
I made my last homemade project with a 8 track VHS 20 bit ADAT deck and a Mackie 1202VLZ. This next project will go so much better with the Model 16.
I have a Model 12 and love it. Wish it had more onboard editing functions. Other than that, it's fantastic.
I bought one of these during Covid and have just dusted it off again. This is a great rundown on the unit. I had some problem getting the unit to sync with my Computer at 48000/24 as I was always looking for a global setting in the jog menu and it would keep going silent whenever I set the PC to 48000/24. In the end I created a song and choose 48000/24, then it worked fine for general monitoring.
I have the Model 12. It's amazing😌. Then again I come from a 8 channel completely analog mixer that doesn't even have inserts or an interface, or even phantom power😅.
The Soundcraft Signature 22mtk has an asymmetric EQ, & you can choose the frequencies on 2 of the bands instead of just one on the Tascam... Great vid though
Yay! Awesome review, Cato! Great sounding little board. Just wondered - when it records, can/does it record pre compression and EQ? 💚
It records with compression only. You can mixdown and use the EQ but the EQ does not affect the recording. Same way it works when recording to tape. The signal flow works exactly like it's laid out. So where the switch is to select the different modes is the cutoff point for recording. So high pass and compression only when recording MTR or to your DAW. Hope this helps!
You can record with EQ, Comp, FX, PAN coming through your headphones. And you can hear and adjust them in playback (in MTR mode). That's how you work out what to do when you get to the mix-down stage: what to pull up, down, adjust.
I have been using my Model 12 for a few years now and it works just fine. I did go thru the "Faulty Power Switch" issue and Tascam sent me a replacement... piece a cake...problem solved. All my stuff is DAW in my home studio. The main and only reason I got this unit was for the USB-C I/O cable to my DAW. I recently built a new computer specifically with a Thunderbolt MB but the only units that to date use this I/O are UA and they're "REALLY" proud of their stuff! So the Model 12 was the next closest thing. But...if they have put the USB-C port on the Model 16 I would have gotten it because I would like more channels. So there's that.
Thanks! Appreciate your help Cato!
Glad to help, thanks! 🎉
Punching in and out with a footswitch is the best thing since sliced bread!😂
Do you have a video of your mix for that concert? GREAT sounds on the rough mixes that you played here! Well done.
I have the model 12, but now that I am mostly mixing on it, I would like to get the model 16 or 24 to avoid summing channels which can be time-consuming. I think I could go completely dawless if properly used.
Love this demo and review, my choice for you to review next Korg MW series 1608 desk, thank you
Thanks for this informative video! I'm an old school ((clears throat)) analog guy and haven't been quite able to warm up to the digital realm of the DAW... My last attempt was during 2020 lockdown, I purchased a Tascam 208i interface which seems to work reasonably well (once I got it "mapped" correctly 🙄) Being drawn to the "hands-on" approach of physical knobs and faders of the Model series, and given that I like that the 12 has MIDI ports and USB-C, my question is this: Could I link my 208i interface to the Model 12 for more channels if the need presented itself? I have not purchased yet, and am considering either the Model 12 or 16... and possibly the Mackie ProFX16v which has USB and effects, but no on-board recording to an SD card... but seems to have more routing capabilities and features for both live and recording scenarios... Any input (pardon the pun😐) would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Stevensville, MD (guess where I work!?😉🎸)
Nice vid! Very detailed. Question, do the inserts just apply to channels 1 & 2, or can you apply the effects to other channels?
Yes, the 2 inserts are only for those two channels. Those same two channels also feature "instrument" inputs with High Impedance. The first 8 inputs all include Compression that is routed pre-recorder. The EQ, sends and pan are post record of course.
Q knob can be made dual concentric 'stacked' with another parameter, nice review, thanks!
Lovely review.
Please use limiters on individual channels when mixin 😊 ❤ maby im just sensitive.
Interesting mixer.
Greets from Amsterdam X
Such a great training
Tascam M12 is incredible. But I'm seduced by the 16-channel model. Nice review.
Yeah, i think the limitations are for 2 reasons. 1, to keep the price point attractive, and; 2, since people are meant to use this unit for recording, and use it as a very basic live mixer.. then for the finishing work, do the heavy lifting like specific sculpting EQ and effects work in the box.
Honest! Love it!
Very nice job. A few comments. Not all ribbon mics are alike. I have a pair of Bumble Bee SM-7's, and they have built in FET preamps that require phantom power. I use these to mic my wife's grand piano for her classical work, along with a couple of condensers in my own setup design that really captures the live performance and the range of note frequencies of a grand. Next, that switch label "MTR" is not for "meter". It stands for "multi-track recorder", meaning the source is coming from the SD card in the recorder section. Have you tried the Model 12? I understand it is partially digital, and I don't know if that affects the compression quality.
I think they could have gone with dual concentric knobs.
Each channel could have the middle band have Q control, frequency, and gain while the high and low bands can have both frequency and gain. The master EQ middle bands can have the same as the channel and the low/high bands could be the same as the channel.
This would have added some costs but would have made the board substantially more useful
Actually one other board I would love an honest review on is the presonus Ar16c desk, I loved it for it's on the fly recording my gigs to the SD card which sounded amazing when played back in the van and home hifi system, but I did not like the sound on stage foh it was putting out and it's effects are only just ok, so I returned the desk back to store, now I'm sorry, but after seeing this review I might just give the tascam a run for it's money, still able to record live gig with SD card but mic pre's and overall ease of use and sound on stage is what matters most to me, so still I'm deciding and wondering what will be my next desk outside of my Dynacord cms 1000...
Subscribed!! Cato - I meant to ask - that keyboard in the frame, you use it with ProTools, right? Do you know if one is available for Cubase (Windows, PC)?
Yeah, I do. And I could be wrong, but I believe that any MIDI keyboard should be able to work across DAWs and with Windows or Mac. The protocol for MIDI is pretty standardized, so it's the same whether it's a windows or mac or whatever - you just have to make sure your DAW is set to receive the MIDI properly.
Great review. When you play the video version, there is a notice-able drop in the high frequencies, is this what the internal recorder does? Or... why when you play the ProTools version does it come to life and not sound dull? Why does the video version have such a drastic fallout of the high frequencies?
Got the 24 love it...
SSL Big Six in comparison would be killer. Obviously a lot more expensive but very curious if you could tell the difference sonically.
Thanks! I have the Model 12, and I'm having a hard time getting it to do a count in, so that it doesn't just start recording. I like a little bit of a lead in. I'm trying to record on the SD card, when I'm doing something that I want to capture, without having my computer on. I'm sure I'm just missing something, but I don't understand how. Nothing I do, fixes it.
Record a click-track from a phone or computer, for the length of the song. Decide early on how many beats you want as a count-in. Keep that track there for as long as you can before you need the track for something else, by which time you probably have the main instruments coming in. Alternatively, have a click intro on an instrumental track, but leave enough space to cut it out when editing in your DAW (which most people do). In a 4/4 intro, it might be click-rest-click-rest/click-click-click-rest/play. There are many ways around this; you might have to be a little creative.
love the video! quick question, if I were to record, say, drums, but don't want to feed them into the room PA (as they're audible acoustically), would they still be recorded for post editing? or the level set by the faders is the level of what is being recorded on the SD? I looked at the manual but it's not really clear on that.
I believe the SD card is pre-fader, so that should be no issue.
Do you prefer semi analog mix boards , what you think about digital
options that can also sequence besides doing mixing .
The MTR mode is actually Multi Track Recording.
its actually a digital mixer... analog preamp. it has mmc... that's what sells me mostly
Hello Cato - really enjoyed this video - thanks for taking the time to review. We are a small 3-man band (acoustic guitar, electric guitar and cajon that uses a few digital effects) and use the Model 16 for live shows - about 2 a month. The last few shows, a few people have mentioned our sound is "muddled". We set the gain at the suggested, optimal level, then set our channels at about halfway to avoid clipping. Should we use the mid-cuts on each channel, increase the highs/lows and cut the mids on each channel or use the master eq to do the same? Any suggestions or guidance? Thanks! Ed
Do you have a recording of the sound from the board? That could help diagnose it. And how did you set the gain for the preamps? Can you describe that the suggested, optimal level is for me? Thanks!
@@CatoNoise Thank you Cato. Unfortunately, we don't have a recording, although we should. We'll do it next time we play a live show. We set the gain for the preamps based on the meters as described on page 28 of the guide. We make sure we don't go "over the line" as suggested by the graphic display, which I assume is the optimal level? Many thanks for your reply - much appreciated! Ed
@@edgromann5420 Yeah, that sounds like you're on a good path then! If you can grab a recording of your next set and throw it up on soundcloud or somewhere streaming, I'd love to have a listen and see if I can recommend anything for you. It might just be a matter of reducing those low mids like you mentioned, but it's hard to say without hearing it. Best of luck!
@@CatoNoise Hello again Cato - wondering if you can tell us about the Master EQ section in more detail? What do the two Mids do? I'm not sure what the symbols mean. The documentation is practically non-existent for this feature.
Another comment. To avoid need for direct boxes, the model 16 has hi z for only two channels while the 12 has it on all 12. I'm struggling with which to get. I'm old school, still using my Akai DPS 16 for recording, not live mix, but getting the music out of that is a PITA and pretty much intended for CD final product. It records at 24, but can only get it out at 16 bits for CD quality, and the backup tracks are 24, but can't upload them at 24. I think the Akai DPS 24 addressed this, but it's still ancient tech. While the Akai will do live mix, it's much more cumbersome and needs external compressors, etc. Also, I want to add live / recording in one, more compact, easier to use device, and being able to DAWless record to SD with all the tracks plus the stereo mix is very appealing.
I made my choice a couple ways... the Model 12 uses a wall-wart kind of laptop kind of power supply (which IMHO always fail, so plan to buy an extra one while they are still new and in production)... the Model 16 uses a standard IEC connector (no wall-wart thing)... the Model 12 has all the inputs on the BACK of the device, which means every time you plug something in you have to stand on your head or leave enough room behind it to walk behind and see what you are plugging in... the Model 16 has all the inputs top mounted... I went with the Model 16
Good review! I love mine. Favorite piece of gear that I own. And I own far to much
Would be nice if you could import effects like waves etc, for live streaming
They should hardly call this a 16 channel board. I come from old school recording... and have a Mackie 1604VLZ from way back. Back in the day- 16 channels meant 16 channels period. you got 16 channels with 16 individual XLRs/1/4" inputs. Now they skew the marketing - give you 8 XLRs - give you two 1/4 pairs - for a total of 12- then say because they give you a 1/2" iphone/android input - they count that as 13/14 - and then bluetooth as 15/16. Bunch of useless marketing crap if you ask me. This really strains you in a live enviornment when you end up not having enough channels to mic your drums and then get a subchannel mixer to run into this board. But your review is SPOT ON and awesome. I am just venting about where all the marketing flub has went with these boards. I guess if you want the individual inputs- you need to buy higher end boards. New subscriber by the way.. Great work!!! thanks for sharing.
I've had a 12 for about 3 years and I really like it. There are some things I like better on this beside more channels. Actual AC cord and not a wall wart / power converter. Most inputs going into the top and not the back. Also the software may be better.
I take the card to a PC and put the MTR files, MultiTtrack Recorder files in a DAW and mix them. Then bring to add more tracks. Put them in a single stereo track like channel 7/8.
This video is very applicable to the Model 24 (the 24 just being a larger version of this). One difference is the 24 has a 7-band EQ up above the screen. They're all really good gear, whether 12, 16 or 24. They sound great and all EQ is on the board. Not having to scroll through digital menus for EQ settings was the real seller for me. So I bought the 12 and the 24. So many people like the old-school way of mixing and recording (yes, it's digital recording on the SD card), but nearly everything else is knobs and faders. Make a mistake, do a new take (just like the greatest bands did).
i love zzounds i get everything from there.
Yeah, they're rad!
well done
I love my Tascsm. Mine cost me lots of money, but what's money when your happy. Your cool. Do you play RedDead Redemption 2 online? I have a gopro, but i do my videos with my phone.
"I tend to not trust bluetooth.." I hear you on that!
Ya BT sucks. It really can't be used for anything semiprof. It's ok for having easy access to rehearsing to a song from your phone, but it's very unstable even your phone is lying right at the device your streaming to there is often intermitten sound.
MTR stands for Multitrack, being the inbuilt SD card multitrack recorder.
Yes. Record in 'Live', listen back in 'MTR'.
If you hit record and do a song then hit stop and start recording again does it start a new file in the same folder ?
Its a great mixer but Its best to use external compressor and effects.
Just bought a Tascam 24 and would love to learn from someone like you! I'm in Nashville and my intention is to record up and comers live and studio. Also I write songs and want to really learn this board:) Thanks Cato! Mike
Can you record to a computer through the interface while also recording multitrack to the SD card?
If you have time to answer, do you know how well this would work for electric guitars for more like rock n roll or metal?
Hello ! I’ve been considering the Model 24 . I am a Drummer and back in the old days I always sun mixed my drums and sent that to FOH , they could tweak as needed. Mostly it was I believe a Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro. So my question … I have a Behringer X32 , which I think is just way too much for just Drums , but I LOVE that I can make 100’s of “drum kits” so I can make the kit perfect for different songs etc. I love the ease of use of Tascam but I cannot SAVE anything . Should I just make each kit into my DAW. ? But then I am chained to a computer. I miss my Roland VS2480HD , totally self contained for mixing and recording AND saving !
Start new song, Move the mode switch to mtr, then arm the desired track(s) using the square above track mute in the channel strip and then press record.
I surmise MTR stands for multi track recording, not meter.
I’m trying to hear instruments from line 3-12 how exactly do I hear those instruments if I’m running the tascam as an interface?
I thought MTR denoted MultiTrack functionality. Great video though. Very well done.
Live ,yeah
Can you have FX enabled for the mains (house) but bypassed for the SD card recording at the same time? I want my recording to be raw.
+1
Can you try to use a Zoom L-12 or L-20?
If the mike cable is wired right phantom power doesn't hurt a ribbon mic, I use them all the time with phantom power on
I think it depends on the microphone. There are some that can handle it nowadays, but I'm not risking it unless it's required in my signal chain. Especially not if it's a vintage mic.
What speakers are you using?
I do wosh they gave you a SD card, so i bought 15 from Sweetwater for, like, $850+/- . Yahoo!
How many stage monitor wedges can be used with this?
As many speakers as you wish, but only 2 separate matrix mixable sends.
Nice review and use cases!
Oddly, someone told me the Tascam model 16 is actually a digital console purposely designed to look and work like an analog mixer!
So I wonder which is correct?
That's the Model 12.
Mitch at Sweetwater shows a way to record on the SD Card, load it into Pro tools, play it back through the Tascam then control it on the mixing board. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/GgXUhcGSMb8/v-deo.html the explanation starts at about 5min 12 sec.
very cool, thanks for sharing this!
I know the 24, 16, and 12 do have slightly different features too, so I'd check that if anyone is interested in specific functionality.
Nice video. Explained well. However, all that camera movement was giving me motion sickness.
How much outboard gear can you connect to this if you’re using it as an interface?
It has 2 dedicated aux sends, you can also use the fx channel send as an additional aux send if you dont want to use the internal effects.
the company told me you have 12 connections for equipment im assuming you plug yors in a different way?@@Fuzzfooger
Great video! So just clarifying.. this records 14 channels onto SD card? I’m about to purchase but I want to make sure it can do what I need it for. Thanks!
Yeah, it records to the SD card. The number of tracks it records depends on the model you get, but yeah!
Very informative !!!
Chunk a Knobs !!! 😂
So does the tascam record separate tracks to the internal SD card
?
Of course!, no idea why she was not recording each track separate in these live gigs
Hi, yes it does! And then you can easily import them into your daw and mix them (that's what I've been doing). And I actually have been recording the tracks separately for the live gigs I do. Sometimes it's only a couple of tracks to actually mix if there's just one mic and one DI box, for example, but yep - that's what I've been doing and it's worked well so far!
@@CatoNoise great, definitely want to consider this for peace of mind recording rehearsal jam sessions, 5mics on drums, then direct in and mics on respective amps of guitar, bass, keyboards, that always have some gem moments. Much thanks , appreciate the feedback.
@@CatoNoise hope you are well! Nice you came to reply after months 😊👍
Excellent sound when you went to the Pro Tools recording, big big difference.
U can’t control Ptoools with it right?
I believe the model 12 does have HUI control with Pro Tools, so you can use it as a control surface, but not the model 16. When I looked into it, it was something about how the 12 design is centered around digital mixer functions, and the 16 and 24 are more analog focused.
@@CatoNoise Typical of Tascam to apply pointless limitations to their gear. I love a lot of Tascam pieces and features but there is always something they do that seems to totally miss market share potential and tie the hands of the user.
LETS GET HONEST
Great video. Isn't UA-cam fun?
It's a shame there's no insert on every channel
Staring at it is almost as good as using it. Lol sometimes better 🎸
Haha, yeah, it's nice! Isn't it?
Love this 🎉. Just invested in the zoom L-20 for home studio and small event. Any thoughts on L20? 🫣🤞🏿😅
I love the Bluetooth feature. Are you married? I6 married. And I'm old and decrepit. But i play video games, hey, im 64, cut me some slack. We all get to dream. Yes very good quality
Much better than the Mackie.
I would advise anyone to buy an external phantom power source, keeps the fear of breaking things when you plug your condensers into it.
No, it is NOT cute! haha
What's not to like about a chic that can b******* about mixing boards for hours... I'm ready to make some beautiful music...😊
The 12 is better it has usb
I like the eq is sufficient. Just buy a dog.
