Tascam MZ-372 – 7-Channel Rackmount Multi-Zone Installation Mixer

Product Overview

The TASCAM MZ-372 is a 3U rack-mount 7-channel multi-zone installation mixer designed for permanent installation in venues requiring complex audio source routing to two redundant main outputs. It accepts 19 total audio sources — via 6 input channels each with dual stereo RCA pairs, plus 6 XLR inputs and a front-panel XLR mic input — and routes them to dual main outputs, a sub output, and a monitor output with independent level controls. Channels 2/3/4 support phono-level signals for turntable connection, and the talkover function automatically lowers any mixed source when the front mic is active.

Product Description

The MZ-372's dual redundant main outputs — each with balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connectors — allow the same mix to feed two independent amplifier or distribution systems simultaneously, providing system redundancy for critical commercial installations. A 3-band EQ per input channel allows tone shaping for each source without external processors. Channels 2, 3, and 4 can be switched to phono level for direct turntable connection, making the MZ-372 suitable for DJ booths and music venues where vinyl is part of the source repertoire. Front-panel source selection buttons, volume sliders, and mute controls make operation straightforward for non-technical venue staff. A booth output provides a separate independent stereo feed for DJ monitor speakers. A master recording output sends a stereo mix to an external recorder for event and performance capture. The MZ-372 is available at Creation Networks alongside the MZ-223 and MZ-123BT for smaller zone count requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does dual redundant output mean on the MZ-372?

The two main outputs carry the same stereo mix to two independent amplifier chains. If one amplifier or connection fails, the other continues to feed the loudspeaker system without interruption.

Can the MZ-372 connect a turntable directly?

Yes. Channels 2, 3, and 4 can be switched to phono level input for direct turntable connection without a separate phono preamp.

What is the booth output used for?

The booth output provides a separate independent stereo feed for DJ monitor speakers with its own volume control, independent of the main output level.

How many audio sources can be connected to the MZ-372?

The MZ-372 accepts 19 total sources: 6 channels each with two stereo RCA pairs (12 RCA sources), plus 6 XLR inputs and 1 front-panel mic XLR.

What warranty applies to the MZ-372?

TASCAM products purchased through authorized dealers including Creation Networks carry TASCAM's standard limited warranty.
