Product Information
Full details
The Tascam AK-DC16 is a custom-fitted protective accessory designed for audio engineers and home studio owners who use the Tascam Model 16 mixer. It provides a reliable barrier against dust, debris, and environmental contaminants that can accumulate on sensitive faders and knobs over time, ultimately extending the lifespan of your gear. While it is an excellent tool for equipment maintenance, it is important to note that this is a soft cover, meaning it is intended for dust protection rather than impact or moisture resistance.

FAQs
Does this cover protect against spills?
No, this is a soft dust cover. It is designed to keep dust and light debris away, not to prevent liquid damage.
Can I leave my cables plugged in?
Yes, the AK-DC16 features a foldable flap specifically designed to allow cable access while the cover is in place.
Will this fit the Model 12 or Model 24?
No, this cover is custom-designed for the Model 16 specifically and will not provide a proper fit for other models.
How heavy is the cover?
The cover weighs 390g, making it lightweight and easy to manage.
What are the dimensions of the cover?
The external dimensions are 450mm x 95mm x 480mm.
Is this cover machine washable?
It is generally recommended to spot clean with a damp cloth rather than machine washing to maintain the fabric's integrity.
Troubleshooting
Cover feels loose or doesn't sit flat
Ensure that your cables are not pushing against the underside of the cover; reorganize cable runs to allow the cover to drape properly.
Fabric has collected too much dust
Take the cover to a well-ventilated area and shake it thoroughly; use a handheld vacuum or lint roller for persistent debris.
