MG16X

Description

The MG16X is a 16-channel analog mixer with built-in SPX digital effects. It takes up to 10 microphones (8 mono combo channels plus the mic inputs of 2 mono/stereo channels), with 4 group buses, 4 aux sends (incl. FX), 1-knob compressors and 24 editable effect programs. It has no USB audio interface; the MG16XU adds that. An internal power supply and an included rack-mount kit suit both portable and installed use.
