Q: 3. Does it transfer audio file to my phone via Bluetooth? If not, does it allow my phone to play back audio file stored in the TASCAM X8?

A: No. The Tascam AK-BT1 allows you to remotely control your Portacapture X6/X8 Recorder.

Q: 4. Does this (and the other Models) record post fader for individual tracks to the SD card? The manual mentions a "post record switch" and "When this switch is on, signals from after the MAIN fader are recorded to the SD card." That's all the info in the manual about this feature. I need to know if this switch allows recording of each channel post fader to the SD card.

A: The Tascam Model 12 Integrated Production Suite Mixer/Recorder/USB Interface appears to standardly record "pre-fader" signals to the SD card. This indicates that the signal at the input source is being recorded before it is affected further down the signal chain by EQ and individual fader level settings. There are ways to change this, such as the "POST REC Switch" you mention, which would indicate a post-fader recording of each channels "mix" level signal. The manual also mentions the ability to select the positions that recording signals are sent from each channel, including the ability to send Pre or Post Compression and Post EQ.

Q: 5. Is phase reverse offered on all the channels?

A: No phase reverse shown on any channels, or in the Operator Manual.

Q: 6. Would I need mic activator for Shure am 58 or Shure sm7b?

A: You will need a cloud lifter for the SM7B

Q: 7. What is the A/D & D/A on this Unit? Also, what is the max Mic Pre Gain? Specs look confusing...seems to be +50db which is not enough for a SM7b (needs 60db) without a Cloudlifter

A: Tascam does not disclose which converters they are using. And yes, you will need to use a cloudlifter when using an SM7B.

Q: 8. Does this work with Atomos/TCS timecode-sync modules, like the Blue?

A: No, the AK-BT1 Bluetooth Adapter has not been confirmed to work with TC devices like the Blue. It is mainly designed for use with the Portacapture Control app.

Q: 9. Can it simultaneously record to both the SD card and to a PC through USB?

A: Absolutely - no problem at all.

Q: 10. Can two of these be chained together into a PC for more channels during multi-track recording?

A: No, it would not be possible to connect multiple USB mixers to one computer for a single recording.
