Tascam Model 16: The Complete Compact Mixer for Live and Studio Use
The Tascam Model 16 mixer brings unparalleled recording and mixing capabilities into a more compact and affordable package than its predecessor, the flagship Model 24. It's an ideal solution for small format live performances, recordings, and production environments, blending the classic warmth of analog with the precision and flexibility of a digital workflow. This all-in-one mixer includes a multi-track recorder, USB audio interface, and comprehensive effects, making it the perfect partner for creators who need versatility without compromising on quality.

Flexible Input Options for Any Scenario
Equipped with 14 easy-to-access top-panel inputs, the Model 16 offers immense flexibility, accommodating everything from microphones to instruments. It features 10 Mic/14 Line/2 Inst inputs, ensuring that you can connect a wide array of audio sources. Additionally, Bluetooth 5.0 integration allows for seamless streaming from mobile devices, providing even more versatility with inputs that include stereo RCA and a 1/8" Stereo jack.

Pristine Sound Quality Across All Channels
Tascam's renowned Ultra HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) mic preamps are utilized on inputs 1 through 8, delivering audio with unmatched clarity and detail. These preamps ensure that every nuance of the sound is captured, from the softest whisper to the loudest roar, maintaining a pure, transparent, and natural tone with an ultra-low noise floor.

Advanced Controls for Professional Sound Shaping
Each channel on the Model 16 is equipped with professional-grade controls, including a tactile gain knob, a push-button Lo-Cut filter, and a three-position input selector that makes it easy to manage your sources whether live, from a PC, or from a multitrack recorder. Channels 1 through 8 also feature a 1-knob inline compressor and a sweepable 3-band EQ, providing all the tools needed for precise audio adjustments.

Extensive Routing and Output Options
The Model 16 does not just excel in input flexibility—it also offers a wealth of routing possibilities. Three Aux buses and a Sub bus enhance its routing capabilities, perfect for sending mixes to stage monitors or external effects. Moreover, dedicated outputs for stage monitoring, external gear, and headphone mixes are provided, along with a footswitch control jack for additional flexibility in signal routing and monitoring.

Robust Recording and Integration Features
As a 16-track multi-track recorder, the Model 16 records directly to SD cards and integrates seamlessly as a 16-in/14-out USB audio interface. This allows for easy recording, playback, and DAW integration. Record up to 8 tracks simultaneously with punch in/out capabilities and use built-in TASCAM effects to enhance your recordings.
