Analogue Mixer, Multi-Track Recorder and Audio Interface
Your Perfect Mix
Has Found Its Match
The Tascam Model 16 all-in-one mixer brings the flagship Model 24’s powerful recording and mixing features and functionality to a new level of compactness and affordability, creating a fully featured compact mixer that combines the warmth of analogue with a digital workflow. The Model 16 is the perfect mixing solution for small-format live performance, recording and production environments, featuring a multi-track recorder, USB audio interface, effects, comprehensive mixing and routing capabilities, and Bluetooth wireless.
14 Inputs for Complete Flexibility
14 easy-to-access top-panel inputs provide flexible options for microphones, instruments or other audio sources. You can connect up to 10 mics, 14 line signals or two instruments for live recording or mixing. There is also a Bluetooth 5.0 enabled stereo input for a streaming audio device that also provides (selectable) RCA connectors and a stereo mini jack for direct connection of CD player or mobile playback device.
Pristine Audio Quality
Mic inputs 1 through 8 deliver pristine audio quality, featuring Tascam’s Ultra-HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) technology for pure, transparent natural tone with ultra-low noise.
Professional Channel Strip Control Features
A tactile Gain knob tops each channel for precise tweaking of input levels. A push-button low-cut filter and three-position input selector (Live/PC/MTR) facilitate quick and easy control of input source signals. A 1-knob inline compressor is available on inputs 1–8 as is a 3-band EQ with sweepable mid range.
Maximum Audio Routing Possibilities and Monitoring
Three Aux busses (Monitor 1, Monitor 2 (pre/post) and Effects) and PFL (Pre Fader Listen) round out the Model 16’s pro-level signal path routing options. A Sub group provides an additional pair of stereo line outputs which can be used to drive an additional amplifier, for example.
The three Aux outs let you route audio signals for stage monitoring, or to external gear such as outboard effects, signal processors or headphone mixes. And an additional Control Room output with individual level fader can be used to drive a pair of powered studio monitors.
Monitor Your Signals on a Computer (added in v1.40)
Connect the Model 16 to a PC or Mac via USB to access the Model Mixer Settings Panel app and take advantage of a digital meter bridge. Use it to monitor the input, multitrack or USB signal and adjust the peak hold times. Scale the window to suit your needs, or for an even better experience, display the app on a separate monitor.
