I've switched as well. The mixcast 4 powers an sm7b with no mic activators. The line out and inserts are beautiful to have and they work. The effects are crisp. Fun fact: the rodecaster pro's USB power adapter works with the mixcast 4.

Need to get my hands on this. Great review. You have a new subscriber.

Great review, Travis! What an amazing board! Thanks a lot…now I’m gonna end up dropping $600! 😂 And mint chocolate chip is NOT just for old ladies!!

What would be nice is if you showed us whether we can use talkback feature without interrupting the background music before you turned it all the way down. Otherwise, this was a great demo! Much Thanks!!

You are an amazing natrual broadcaster, you played this thing like a flow. Like your style very much, and thanks to you I just purchased a Mixcast 4. Actually, I need a machine just for playback background music in some live productions, this mixer has it, and has a fader for it, and also has music name shows in the screen, those could be very helpful. After watch your review, I am little exciting about all other functions, maybe run a show on my own oneday.

Will it work with Adobe can I control the faders on screen?

I purchased this Tascam Mixcast 4 simply to play around with music while I’M in an AUDIO ROOM on FanBase, YEAH YEAH I know this was over kill, but all of a sudden I feel the DESIRE to create a podcast, oh yeah! Now I’m looking for a Standalone DJ mixer as well. Anyway this machine is AWESOME!

Good review... i hope i win this ... this would do great to start the podcast/radio show i always dreamed of

For livestreaming musicians is the rodecaster pro still best or should I buy the tascam? I've been using their products as well forever. I still record on my tascam 2488

I'm trying to find a sample of the poly wav file produced by the Mixcast 4. Specifically, I would like to determine if I am able to open the multitrack file in Audacity. I know there is a Tascam podcast editor, but I would like to migrate to a new board without impacting pre-existing production workflow. Thanks.

Wow. This device is awesome.

Great video, thank you for doing it for us. I couldn't help but notice that the touch screen often took more than one tap from you to respond. Is that because you're trying to be quick on screen? Or are we going to be tapping many times to get basic things done as well?

How is it better than the rodecaster pro?

This was very useful but since I am a complete greenhorn at this, I am looking to hire an expert to help me get up an running. Can you recommend how to do this?

Oh no, I (believe) I was first, in the 80's I used the Tascam's 4-channel Porta studio with cassettes, learning to overdub like crazy :-) . As a user of their DR-70D 4-channel mixer that's connected to the Atem Mini Pro in the current configuration of my streaming/teaching, I believe every word you say and I think it's hands down a more complex machine than the Roadcaster Pro. Only the audio delay is enough in my case, otherwise I'm fixing it either in the DR-70D or in the Atem Mini, Ecamm has it as well. So not crucial, but very convenient. Also, the gain at 66,5 db is only 0,5 less than on the DR-70D, albeit a bit noisy according to some reviews. With good mics though, you won't need too much gain anyway. My "micro" complaint - they should change the colour of the recoding indicator to yellow or green when the Talkback button is pressed down. And I don't really understand if the recording is being muted for all participants of only for one of the channels (mine for ex.)..

Great breakdown and review Travis!

Cheers gr8 review 🙏🏿🤲🏿

After couple of weeks - an issue when using the USB Delay - it produces .... a delay, two of my voices. The amount assigned is just the time lapse before my words get repeated. It's like when I'm playing my guitar and using a delay pedal. It's not what I expected. In the Ecamm software there's an Audio Delay function that works flawlessly, but I don't use Ecamm every time I go on ZOOM for example. Am I missing something?

Great stuff, Travis. But, there’s no link to win the TASCAM!!!! Unless I missed it…

to clarify, effects can only be used on one channel at a time? let's say reverb, if I have two singers (ion channels 2 and 3) that will sing in duet they can't use the reverb simultaneously right? it's either channel 3 or channel 4 that would be able to use the effects? If so, this is one of the let down. I'm planning to start a streaming and would focus more on local singers and reverb I think is "vital" specially when doing it live! Nice review by the way! have you reviewed QSC Touch Mix 8? I would love to see your review on it!

OK I just bought this mixer and I love it but I do have one question which I can't figure out if I'm in the sound pads and I'm going to assign audio or my voice or anything to a particular pad how do I know I'm recording with the sufficient enough gain since there is not record levels on the sound pad record menu I hope that makes sense I mean how do you know how much gain to add other than trial and error thanks in advance for any help

Thx for the video. Can I connect my DBX (mic pre amp) directly to one of the microphone inputs ?

Do you personally believe this would be a good brain for mixing midi in/out synths but use the unit to run multitrack I have a podcast and a lot of electronic standalone equipment I make music aswell I want to make music live .. and broadcast live possibilities on my yt and podcast I have 2 korg kaoss synth pads a zoom 48 several synth’s and a theremin.. I want to record my sessions - and have lives .. I have ableton but hate using it want a better physical approach I want to do ambient recordings and plug the audio from the gear I have into each track and then visually be able to release quicker.. In my music and my podcast endeavors any advice would be so appreciated

Yes, where is the link to win it?

I like the rodecaster but I can’t really talk because I have used the mixcast. But looks good though

can this be used as a portable device..does it have a way to power other than AC?

Brother what kind of cord do I need to connect the tescam to the laptop dell ? Or can I just Bluetooth it ? Any tips too going go get it today ?

Great video!

I am FLOORED

Do you need to use the cloudlisfter with this as well?

I would love to see a master out on these units so u can route the main audio to a fm transmitter. Then it can also be used as a main mixer in a radio station. That would kill all those expensive broadcast mixers out there.

Can you record multi tracks directly into logic?

How many decibels does it amplify to?

I went with an audio interface instead of mixer because one a mixer is expensive and so is a mic

Awesome

Very nice

There's no physical PLAY button.

Have you sold you Rodecaster Pro yet?

I'm beyond shocked how this product is getting all those glowing reviews... I can only imagine these reviewers are PAID and PAID good... the recording is beyond terrible quality. Let's not even mention the audio quality of any recording from any source of any type... it will sound like a RADIO quality no matter how good signal you're inputting. This product is worst than the cheaper recorder out there when it comes to quality.
