Tascam Sonicview 16

A New Generation of Sonicview Consoles Designed for Recording and Live

With the Sonicview series, Tascam introduces a range of digital recording/mixing consoles built around tactile ergonomics, advanced customization, and current network integration. The Sonicview 16 is the most compact version in the family, featuring 16 physical input channels and a control surface designed to focus on essentials without sacrificing the processing and routing tools expected in studios, tours, or fixed installations.

Within the range, the Sonicview 16 stands out by its format and number of physical inputs, while the internal architecture remains identical to the other series version. Practically, you benefit from a generous and coherent mixing structure, ideal for building complex sessions, managing monitor mixes, or organizing clean routing for capture and broadcast.

Who Is the Sonicview 16 For?

The Tascam Sonicview 16 targets sound engineers, stage managers, technicians, and content creators who want an intuitive digital console, quick to master, and robust enough in features to cover real-world scenarios: recording studios, mobile studios, touring, broadcast, and fixed installations. Its approach centered on direct parameter access, interface customization, and recall of settings makes it an excellent choice whenever responsiveness and repeatability matter.

It is especially suitable for setups where stages, groups, participants, or shows frequently alternate: you quickly visualize what matters and control your mix without getting lost in menus.

A Console Designed for Speed Without Compromising Precision

A Clear and Customizable Control Surface

The heart of the Sonicview experience is touch navigation and customization. The fully configurable touchscreens and programmable buttons allow you to display and access the parameters you truly need, exactly when you need them. Add to this motorized faders for smooth control and perfect consistency during scene or configuration changes.

High-Definition Audio and FPGA-Based Mixing Engine

The Sonicview 16 is equipped with Tascam Class 1 HDIA mic preamps, designed for detailed and reliable capture. Its mixing engine relies on an FPGA and internal 54-bit floating-point processing to preserve precision during summing, processing, and routing, even when the session becomes dense. Integrated signal processing functions help shape your sources and stabilize your mix without multiplying external gear.

Current Connectivity: Dante, Multichannel USB, and Expandability

To naturally integrate into modern control rooms, the console features Dante capabilities and a multichannel USB audio interface operating at 96 kHz/32-bit. This facilitates connection to a computer for recording, multitrack playback, or integration into a production environment. The console also includes built-in inputs/outputs and a slot for expansion cards, convenient for evolving connectivity according to venue or equipment needs.

Integrated Stereo Recording and Remote Control

To secure a capture, create a quick reference, or record a broadcast mix, a stereo audio recorder is integrated, with recording onto SD card or via USB. Finally, wireless remote control and control software contribute to flexible use: adjustments from the room, balance tweaks, or operation in mobile setups.
