New Mixer Day
I just bought a shiny new Tascam Model 12:
One of the headphones out goes into the Aux in of the Yamaha THR10, which sounds glorious. I have a Beatbuddy drum machine which is performance grade, and also a Trio+ which isn't really perfromance grade but is just great for solo practice and Lockdown days. Both are velcroed to the top of my Katana: The Kat has an acoustic amp model as well, so it's perfect for any guitar. The Tascam also has a USB connector so I can record on the Tascam itself or take the signal straight into the PC, or take the recording from the Tascam into the PC...huge possibilities for a relatively modest outlay.

HI P-pasta
Very flexible with lots of 'options'. Thanks for posting your rig. I like the more-than-average amount of inputs, and the USB-out as well as the conventional options. Great for connecting 10 channels at once to a DAW… |

Thanks guys! The mixer is a Tascam, BTW, I just use the Yamaha THR as a loudspeaker for it. The THR sounds great, and is my go-to guitar amp for practice. I probably got more value out of the THR than any other piece of equipment, it is used everyday as guitar amp, computer speaker and now mixer monitor. It's a real workhorse.
One of the things I like about the Tascam Model 12 is how analog in appearance and operation it is, despite everything after the input preamplifiers being digital. I really love all the knobs and the strip approach to the signal processing. It reminds me of playing around with reel-to-reel tapes in my younger days. It's really easy to use once you get your head around all the busses used to transport signal around. I haven't got around to using DAWs yet, but when I do the Tascam can be used as a user interface to the DAW so that you can continue that analog mindset. I'm still learning all the things it can do. |

This one seems like the best of both worlds for a knob guy who still wants the some of the benefits and DAW and MIDI and so on. Probably my Christmas present to myself! |
