A multi-functional mixer in a compact format for live or studio applications. Powered from the rear USB Type-C connection, this port also acts as a USB audio interface for direct recording and playback from a PC without an additional power supply. 2 mono channels can accept an XLR input for microphone or 6.3mm plug for line or instrument (selectable) with switchable 48V phantom power for condenser microphones. These can be routed to the internal delay effect section for echo effects if desired. An additional stereo line channel can accept 6.3mm plugs or a single plug for mono operation. Each channel has a Gain control with Bass and Treble EQ controls. A USB type-A connector is provided for playback of mp3 files from a pen drive and the media player even has a built-in Bluetooth receiver for wireless playback from a smart phone or tablet. Outputs include main outs, recording and headphone connections. Comprehensive features make this a useful tool for live performance, project studios, laptop DJs and podcasting.

US-16x08 USB Audio/MIDI Interface (16 in/8 out)

The US-16x08 offers 16 mic and line inputs for your computer with clear sound quality and advanced features to manage big sessions. Eight Ultra-HDDA microphone preamps provide clean and quiet operation while delivering up to 56 dB of gain. An additional eight balanced line inputs are provided, two of them switchable to instrument level for direct guitar or bass recording. Eight balanced line outputs are also available, two with a level control on the front panel for monitoring.

Built into the US-16x08 is a DSP Mixer for low-latency digital mixing. Each channel has four-band EQ and compression for polished-sounding monitor mixes. In addition to interface mode, the US-16x08 can be used as a standalone mic preamp. Windows and Mac drivers are provided, as well as USB Class Compliant 2.0 drivers for tablets like the Apple iPad. MIDI input and output are also available on the rear panel.

Whether using the ergonomically designed angled desktop stand or mounting with the included rack ears, the US-16x08 includes enough I/O for almost any music recording application.
