Mixer usable for multitracking in DAW

I’m looking for a mixer that can send every input as its own track into a DAW (mainly Ableton Live).

I’m already aware of the Tascam Model series, but the Model 16 is starting to feel too small for my setup, and I’d like to see if there are any cheaper alternatives with more inputs that still offer true multitrack USB recording.

My priorities are:

- 16+ inputs (or easily expandable) - True multitrack USB to Ableton - Reliable drivers and low latency - Good value for money

I’d love to hear what you’re using and what you’d recommend.

I have the zoom l12next and happy with it, if the l20 is like it then maybe worth checking out. The major problem is that it's either a mixer or a multi track interface, not both (the faders and onboard eq are bypassed when multi tracking to Ableton). But if you can live with that then it's hitting your prios nicely.

  Thanks for this info. Was eyeing the Livetrak range to replace my Soundcraft M12

What I would look for in your situation: get any mixer that fits the bill and that has direct outs (many do). Then get an appropriately sized RME interface.

  This is the way the pro's do it.

  Couldn’t you also get a basic analog mixer for monitoring and splits to send the signal to an interface in parallel?

If you don't need the physical faders, an interface like a MOTU Ultralite mk4 or mk5 + ADAT (such as ada8000) can do 18 ins on the cheap while controlled from an old iPad.

Go for an interface with 16 i/o...much easier

The latest Mackie mixers have 16 usb outputs.
u/Infinite_Slice33051Aug 1, 2026, 11:54 AM
You get 8 preamps, 16 inputs, 8 outputs, compressor & parametric EQ on every channel with the Tascam US16x08 for $399. You don't get faders or encoders, but I've been using mine for over 2 years with no problems at all.

Get a digital mixer from Yamaha or Behringer.
u/dj_soo1Aug 1, 2026, 7:15 PM
If you just need inputs and don’t need to route ableton tracks to mixer tracks, zoom and newer mackie and Yamaha mixers are options.
