    Nicely explained! Just picked up a Model 12, even though I have an Apollo x4 + MOTU 8 pre in the studio with Logic.

    I have the DP32 SD and have hardly used it. I only record 1 track at a time and build a song that way. Usually a rhythm guitar track on track one, two and three for edit and mixdown followed by bass guitar on track 4, drums track 5, synth track 6 and lead vocals track 7, vocal harmonies and lead guitar I'll generally assign to following tracks. I'll usually never use or need more than 12 tracks. If i can safely get through on the machine at that level I'm content. I'll usually get a clean full sound for rhythm guitar tracks and use my in-line guitar processors rather than the internal sound effects. It's my plan to not overcomplicate things.
    I can still use all the help i can get with hard disk recording I'm more proficient with pc recording and mixing programs like Logic and a few other systems. Thanks for the info, I'll subscribe now why not?

    I have the 12 and like it, it fits what I need it to do. I have a12 channel Yamaha mixer that I could mic drums ( if I had a drummer) and send them to one stereo channel. I take everything I do solo and put the card in the PC and mix with Audacity then take it back to a stereo channel on the 12. I like to separate playing from mixing functions since there is only one of me. On the negative side it's 3 years old and I had a power switch failure the first year that was warranty and now I have some sketchy noisy mute buttons on 2 channels.

      Thanks for your comment. I figure Tascam will continue supporting the Model series as they have for about 10 years in total. They seem to be doing a hardware refresh in the 5th year of their mixer line. So, we should expect to see Version 2 come out in a couple of years. Tascam also seems to update the firmware until it reaches peak for the hardware. I don't the the Model 12 has hit that limit yet because it's digital, but the 16 and 24 probably have. So, this means Tascam could come out with new software for the 12. They recently released 1.41, which was nice.
      I don't like the sound of the power switch going bad. I have seen several people talking about that online and maybe it seems to be more common than it is. I don't know. Mine is brand new. Fingers crossed. Cheers.

    I have a DP24SD and am finalizing my home studio (taken me a while following a nasty car accident) and I came across your channel in search of knowledge and noticed your name, which happens to be my brother's and am curious if you are from Ohio of California?

    I’m toying with the idea of the model series for my home studio. Just me. No live band recording. The reason is that DAW’s just seem overwhelming. Too many options. The Model series seems straight forward. Make music, record it, and move on. Thoughts?

    • @RobertHamm
      @RobertHamm  Před 2 měsíci +2

      I use mine for exactly that same reason: sit down, record, mix, done. However, I have found that my problem with making music that way is I can record covers of other songs pretty easily. My music, not so much. I feel like it isn't finished, and the M12 makes it feel even more final. This is a headspace thing. All creators, regardless of the medium, will struggle with "completionism" at some point. Now, because I have a tool that can ACTUALLY put my songs together in a way that works best for me, I don't have any more excuses, and so I have kind of hit a brick wall. this is a different creative block that I didn't expect to experience. What it shows me is that most of my music wasn't ready, and the stuff that is, needs to get started.

      @@RobertHamm Thanks for taking the time to respond. I’m the same way with my own songs, constantly tinkering and changing. Fortunately the record company isn’t pressing me with a deadline to release a new album😜

      Probably two years down the road. That's when I expect to see a hardware refresh.
