Just wait until the on off switch starts playing up, lots of reports on internet of the on off switch being faulty! Totally unacceptable. I sometimes have to switch the thing 50 times to get it started. So infuriating

This is one of the many perils of the digital age. From experience, when a file is lost, corrupted, whatever, it always goes way faster the second time around recreating it.

I haven't seen a "File Error" yet but I should watch and save this vid. If anything can be done wrong I will do it eventually. Thanks !

I've always got my Model 12 connected to my computer. So I just connect in the system menu, drag the files across, and I've got a new backup. Every device occasionally has a hiccup and the 12 is no different. I'm so pleased with mine it's almost untrue. I treat the data as no different from photos on an SD card: when I get the camera home I backup - always. Even tape can break. Good luck for new takes, you'll probably be fine from now on.

Awesome that you were able to recover most of the project. Woohoo!

This has been an issue on the Tascam dp series for me since 2011. There has been no effort by Tascam to fix this issue. I still have several of the devices but this forces me to save constantly and use a focusrite and computer on occasion.

Great tune and informative video 👍

appreciate your knowledge thanks alot!

!so good that i found this video, thank you very much. one little detail, it's better not to obscure buttons you push by putting the arm between camera and the apparatus ;)

Yaaay! Thanks!! I got to watch this after kid finally sleeps. I'll try it out soon! 😊

Channel 11/12 is always recording, to prove this record your three tracks and then take your audio into a daw and 11/12 will be there separately this is why I use what you did in the beginning of the video for mixdown, without a computer. Because the faders on channels 1 to 9/10 are live when summed to the main fader I can arrange and mix the tracks live.

You actually CAN listen back to 11/12 in real-time. Just press the button labeled "SD Main Mix Return" (its right above the second headphone volume knob) and when you press play and are monitoring the main mix, it'll playback whatever was recorded to 11/12.

Hello sir im a beginner wanting to learn about lyric writing could you please suggest which book should i refer I've already bought writing better lyrics by pat Pattison now im trying to buy essential guide to songwriting by pat pattison Thank you.

his last name rhymes with teeny, not tinny…

Hey Jordan, Did you sell your TASCAM dp-006 yet?

How about the points that make the tape sound better than the digital? As a resident producer at WB's I hear quite a few.

Very cool video! Good information and lets me listen to it again!

Oh yeah, I had a close friend that just passed away, finally drank himself to death. He played bass in a band I was in and we stayed close. He loved punk rock and several Albini engineered bands. Loved In Utero, PJ's Rid Of Me, Pixies Surfer Rosa, and The Breeders stuff. I don't think my friend Eddie even put it together that Albini had his hands on Eddie's favorite albums. RIP Eddie and Steve 😢

Hey man, totally agree, I record music and you tube videos in my little shed also. Love the philosophy, from uk ❤

Hey Jordan. Well said man. I love your shed studio!!! Mine is in kinda tight quarters in my bedroom, but I like it because I'm within reach of everything as I spin my chair around. My room isn't treated and I don't care. I have curtains and rugs that dampen some sound but it's fine, just like your shed. You have a unique room sound like nobody else!!!

Oh wow. That was my first pedal too. I was 15 though, but close enough. I got from Guitar Center too. It was Chicago’s only Guitar Center at the time, so everybody went there. At the front of the store they had a killer demo rig setup where you could try out virtually every effects pedal they sold. It was f-ing awesome. Every Boss, MXR, Ibanez, DigiTech multi-effects, and DOD. I don’t remember there being any Electro Harmonics pedals there, but I could be mistaken. I was a few months in to playing guitar, and needed a distortion pedal so I could finally play Smell’s Like Teen Spirit the way you’re supposed to. I talked my dad into giving me half the money for it if I came up with the other half. I only hustled up about half of my end, so I just told my dad it was more expensive than it actually was to make up the difference. lol. I sat at the display for around two hours, trying every pedal there. They looked so cool. All the different colors, and the various casings. The MXR pedals looked kind of strange. They were so plain and simple. A very industrial, utilitarian look. It was the mid 90’s, so they had the DOD lamb series, with the crazy names and graphics. Back then, that whole series was looked at as like the trailer trash of the effects pedal world. People would look down on you I they saw you using one of those. They were just lame. Even the quality was bad. They were made cheap and marketed toward the younger Gen X musicians. Disposable. There were a lot of people who thought everything by DOD was junk because of it.

great! thanks for this video that shows that parents of little kids can actually get some song recording done! =) just one question: could you explain HOW you did the bouncing so you could liberate some tracks?? thanks again and keep the music flowing, it sounds nice!

La canción y la interpretación es genial! Por eso no importa el sonido, que igualmente me agrada el sonido cassette. En un album más moderno creo que igualmente una rola así funcionaria como track número 7 x ejemplo, como algo artístico y adrede.

Having used the Zoom L-8 for 3-4 years, I feel like the way it enables a computer-less, hands-on recording experience keeps things feeling musical and inspired. Then mixing and editing in a DAW gives all the power and flexibility I could ever want. The L-8's pretty handy and powerful but far from perfect and a little flimsy, so I've been wondering if the Tascam Model 12 might be a good upgrade.

I have a DAW, but I recently acquired a Roland CD-2e, it's 15 years old and it saves music to a CD and or to a SD card. Came with a nice Roland mic, gonna see what I come up with. I have had many setups over the years, an Audigy sound card was great, but only works with windows XP. Fun videos.

Great video!

Hey, awesome video! I just have one question. Are you able to export tracks from the DP-006 into your iPhone running GarageBand with an adaptor?

Dude how are you not famous 😭 your music is really good 👍

Amazing video man, I got a tascam dp03sd last weekend I really like it, making my first real ep on it over the next months.

dude I went thru the same thing going back to Tascam units and ambandoning DAW.Cool at first then I literally wanted to quit making music.too many tutorials and issues,subbed.

Zoom L12 is another mixer you can use as well.

Speaking of DAWless your video unleashes your creativity potential with it being real on the fly and glad to see no talking into a big black can mic in your face like all the wannabe podcasters. Great video! kid and all you cant get any more real than that.

Would it ut be possible to play 2 guitars in 1 amp that way?

This was Really good, Thank you.

Thanks for sharing

Man, that's a tiny room you are in!

I have a Tascam 12 and have moved all recording out of my DAW. I only use my DAW now to master. Just bought a vintage cassette tape and record to that as well. WAY BETTER SOUND!

Great sound! Lucky you 🎸💪

Sounds great but you should've of put your camera over your DP-03SD to show us how you are bouncing your process on that song!

Powerful stuff

Hey man. I think you hit the nail on the head and described the phenomenon of songwriting better than I ever could myself. I think You’ve got plenty to say, and you’ve helped me on my journey as a songwriter so thankyou for that.

Great tune!!!

Jordan, I came here to get ideas/help with my brainfarting with a tune I'm writing...needing some inspiration, or just ideas how to get past writer's block. What I found was a guy that's got serious talent for writing. Your ideas for the verses are all great, but even better is your Bachelor Roses way of sussing them out! Cutting to the chase: your first idea for the verse is great. Different, tells a story. The 2nd idea for the verse, however- is so much more poignant, direct, story telling, but moreover- it grabs the listener, sits them down in front of you, and tells them the story - its got more X factor. My thoughts? You can use the first idea for the first verse, the 2nd idea for the 2nd verse, OR- after doing a (rare) long first chorus, go into that 2nd idea as a BRIDGE, then a solo or a instrumental interlude, then back into a double chorus and then an outtro. Simple, to the point, effective, and you utilize BOTH ideas, because in story telling, you can travel thru the woods, then exit onto a busy street with tons of traffic and SLAM that storyline home! Whatever you do, or may have already done, I'm sure it'll be incredible. Damn. Would love to keep in contact with you !

Nice man

Great point Jordan. We have to make our art for ourselves. If anyone else likes it, that's a bonus. Cheers from Motown brother. ✌️
