Analogue 8-channel mixer engineered for clear, professional sound with practical features for small live, recording, and AV setups. Key benefits Ultra-low noise performance: Premium analogue design keeps background hiss and interference to a minimum so vocals and instruments come through clean and detailed. Single, high-quality mic preamp with phantom power: A state-of-the-art microphone pre delivers transparent gain and supports condenser microphones via +48V phantom power. USB media playback (note: not a USB audio interface): Play music or backing tracks directly from a compatible USB device without a computer connection — convenient for background music, rehearsals, or performance backing tracks. Built-in delay effect: Add controlled delay to vocals or instruments to enhance presence and depth without external processors. Flexible 8-channel routing: Multiple line-level sources plus the dedicated mic channel let you mix instruments, keyboards, media players and more in one compact unit. Function and compatibility Function: Analogue mixing across eight channels with one dedicated mic preamp and integrated delay FX; USB port for media playback only. Compatibility: Accepts microphones that require phantom power, line-level instruments and playback devices that support USB media output or USB storage. This mixer is not a USB audio interface for connecting directly to a computer. Performance: Designed for low-noise analogue operation and reliable mic gain staging via the built-in preamp. Practical applications Solo performer or singer-songwriter: Connect a condenser mic (phantom power), plug an acoustic guitar or keyboard into line channels, and play backing tracks from a USB stick while adding delay to the vocal for a fuller live sound. Small venue, café, or retail background music: Feed USB media playback for continuous music and use the mic channel for announcements or a live performer without additional playback gear. Podcast recordings or presentations with a single mic: Use the high-quality mic preamp for clear voice capture and the USB playback to cue intros/outros or source audio clips. Why choose this mixer Keeps your mix clean with ultra-low noise circuitry. Provides professional mic gain and phantom power in a simple, single-preamp design. Lets you play USB media without needing a computer, saving setup time. Built-in delay FX adds creative control without extra equipment.
