TASCAMModel 16 16-Channel Multitrack Recorder With Analog Mixer & USB Interface
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Model 16 puts an analog 16-channel mixer, SD multitrack recorder, and USB audio interface in one unit. Record up to 16 tracks at once to supported SD media, then play them back through the mixer for overdubs, rehearsing parts, or a stereo bounce. Each channel has four-band EQ and AUX sends, while stereo, control-room, and headphone outputs cover monitoring. USB connects the mixer’s inputs and outputs with a Mac or Windows DAW for further editing and mixing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Capturing a full-band session with up to 16 tracks recorded simultaneously to SD media.
- Live mixing where per-channel four-band EQ, AUX sends, and dedicated monitoring outputs are useful.
- Continuing a recorded project in a Mac or Windows DAW through USB.
