In order to set up our Model 12 as a DAW controller, we’ll first need to navigate
to the Model 12 product page on the Tascam website and download firmware version 1.30
to the Utility folder on the Model 12 SD card while in storage mode.
After properly ejecting the Model 12 from your computer, power the unit off
then on again while holding stop and rewind simultaneously.
Click on the new firmware version and then restart the unit once installation
has been completed. After that’s been installed we’ll connect the Model 12 to
our mobile device via USB. Next we’ll enter the menu on the Model 12
and scroll down to DAW Controller and push ENTER.
Next scroll down to Cubasis which uses the Mackie Control Universal
protocol and push ENTER again. Next we’ll open Cubasis, navigate to the Setup menu
and click on the MIDI tab to the right.
We see Mackie Control here. Click the power icon then select Model 12 DAW Control IN
and Model 12 DAW Control OUT from the list.
Click anywhere to exit that menu and now we’re ready to control Cubasis with our Model 12.
From here we can now use the Model 12 controls to manipulate functions into Cubasis.
As you can see, when I raise the fader, push Solo or Mute, use the Pan knobs or
press the Shuttle control buttons, they control those same functions within the DAW.
