Essential Information About the TASCAM Model 12 Mixer



  • All-in-one Console: analog mixing, multitrack recorder, USB audio/MIDI interface, and DAW control combined in a compact format.

  • Computer-free Capture: 12-track recording/10-track playback in 24-bit/48 kHz WAV on SD card with Punch In/Out and Overdub.

  • Designed for Podcasting: TRRS smartphone input with mix-minus function, Bluetooth 5.0, dual headphone outputs, and click output.

  • Smooth Workflow: Ultra-HDDA preamps, one-button compressor, 3-band EQ, 60 mm faders, PFL/AFL, and SIP.



From TASCAM Heritage to the "Model" Series: The Versatile Compact


Following the line of TASCAM hybrid consoles, the Model 12 adopts the "analog mixing + digital recording" approach in a portable chassis. It establishes itself as a central production solution for home studios, rehearsals, and small stages without sacrificing modern connectivity or the professional ergonomics valued by the brand.



Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?


The Model 12 is aimed at musicians, singer-songwriters, content creators, and podcasters who want to record, broadcast, and mix with a single device. Ideal for multitrack demos, live sessions captured on SD card, or shows/podcasts with guests via smartphone and Bluetooth, it simplifies setup and speeds up the recording process.



Key Features That Speed Up Your Workflow



Standalone Multitrack Recorder


Start a 12-track recording directly to an SD card, add takes with Overdub, and secure your transitions with Punch In/Out. The built-in metronome and click output with TAP TEMPO stabilize performances, and WAV files can then be easily imported into your DAW for editing.



USB Interface and DAW Control


The USB-C port offers 12 inputs/10 outputs audio and USB-MIDI, while HUI/MCU emulation provides tactile control of essential DAW functions (transport, arm, solos, pans, etc.). You switch from standalone recording to DAW production without changing tools.



Tools Dedicated to Podcasting and Streaming


The 3.5 mm TRRS input with mix-minus accepts a smartphone for calls without feedback, and Bluetooth 5.0 (AAC/SBC) facilitates wireless source integration. Two headphone outputs with independent sources allow the host and guest to each have their own mix.

What to say except that this little studio console is absolutely fantastic. It's a real Swiss army knife, moreover, one of the sharpest in the drawer. I needed a console in my studio to connect my DJ turntables, some machines, microphones, and also to be able to listen to the sound from my computer for production or web pages and especially to replace my old obsolete sound card; it's done, all simply connected by a USB-C to my Mac running Big Sur. It fulfills all its functions and much more, I still haven't explored all its possibilities. The preamps are good, no hiss, it's an ultra-complete machine, I wonder how it's possible to do without it, it's essential in your home studio. Forget directly the equivalents from Yamaha, and even less from Soundcraft, and add a little hundred euros to get a much more reliable console.... (Show more)
