m-320 — TASCAM

Beschreibung

The Tascam M-320 is a vintage analog mixing console positioned in the consoles analogiques category. It is described as a 20-channel analog mixer with a four-buss routing scheme, including inserts and sends to buses 3 and 4, along with two auxes and a dedicated effect send. The model also features four program returns that can be mixed back into the bus sum, providing flexible routing for analog signal flows. Notable on-unit features include: per-channel inputs for line and mic with phantom power, INSERTs, and semi-parametric EQ (mid 200 Hz to 4 kHz; bass 50 Hz to 1 kHz; high 4 kHz). Each channel offers a dedicated send to the buses, panning, mute, and solo controls. The bus section provides insert capability and a switchable symmetric/asymmetric output, while the master section includes a master and mono output, master insert, a headphone out, talkback, and a lamp connection via BNC. The return program section accommodates eight mono magneto returns (four stereo). Typical use cases suggested by the available information include multi-track or live-room mixdowns with analog summing and coloration, and general tracking or mixdown workflows that leverage the console’s vintage 80s routing and character. Descriptions emphasize the practical, straightforward analog workflow and the distinctive tonal qualities attributed to the preamps and EQ.
