12-Track Recording in a Compact Mixer

The Tascam MODEL 12 features an internal 12-track recorder that captures WAV/BWF audio directly to SD, SDHC or SDXC media. With up to 24-bit/48kHz recording, 10-track playback, overdubbing, punch-in/out and metronome support, it gives creators a practical standalone recording workflow without relying on a computer at every stage.

Recorded WAV files can be moved into your DAW for further editing and production, making the MODEL 12 ideal for song demos, band rehearsals, live performances, podcast sessions and compact studio production.


USB Audio Interface and DAW Control

With USB Type-C connectivity, the MODEL 12 works as a 12-in/10-out USB audio interface for compatible computer recording and playback. It supports 44.1kHz and 48kHz operation at 16-bit or 24-bit resolution, giving musicians and producers a smooth bridge between hands-on mixing and computer-based production.

HUI/MCU protocol emulation provides tactile control over major DAWs, including faders, mutes, pans, solos, record arm, play, record, stop, fast forward, rewind and jog control. For creators in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Perth, it is a practical centrepiece for hybrid analogue-style and DAW-based workflows.


Podcasting, Streaming and Live Production Features

The Tascam MODEL 12 is built for modern content production as well as music recording. Features such as mix-minus, smartphone input, Bluetooth pairing, dual headphone monitoring and internal multi-track recording make it a strong choice for podcasts, interviews, livestreams and performance-based content.

A dedicated click output with tap tempo supports live performance and recording sessions, helping performers stay locked to tempo while using the built-in multi-track engine. MIDI in and out also allow connection with keyboards, drum machines, controllers and other MIDI-compatible equipment.


Pristine Sound and Hands-On Mixing

The MODEL 12 includes ultra-HDDA mic preamps with low-noise performance for clear vocals, instruments and spoken-word recordings. With 8 XLR mic inputs, +48V phantom power, TRS line inputs, instrument inputs, 3-band EQ, low-cut filtering, internal effects and 60mm faders, it gives creators direct control over tone and balance.

Built-in effects include hall, room, plate, studio, live, delay, ping pong, chorus, flanger and combination effects, allowing you to add depth and character to music or spoken-word productions without needing additional external processors.


Ideal For

The Tascam MODEL 12 is ideal for musicians, bands, singer-songwriters, podcasters, streamers, producers, rehearsal spaces, project studios, live performers and multimedia creators. It is a strong choice for Australian users who want one compact unit for recording, mixing, DAW control, podcast production and USB audio interfacing.

From home studios in Sydney and Melbourne to podcast rooms, rehearsal spaces and creative setups in Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Gold Coast, Canberra, Newcastle and Sunshine Coast, the MODEL 12 offers a flexible production workflow for serious creators.
