Full Description

Versatile 8-Channel Mixer

The Mix8 Compact Mixer from Mackie is a highly versatile compact mixer featuring 8-channels in total. The Mix8 is the ideal for both stage and studio thanks to its premium-grade components and flexible design. The mixer provides high-headroom and low-noise performance for optimal audio fidelity. It features 2 mic/line inputs designed to provide studio-grade audio quality. Each input features their own pan, level and overload indication, as well as boasting built-in Phantom Power for use with studio condenser microphones. 2 stereo 1/4-inch line inputs are also included, ideal for processing and recording line-level instruments such as synthesizer, keyboards, sequencers and more.

Mackie Custom Mic Preamps

One of the most prominent features of the Mackie Mix8 is the custom, premium-grade microphone preamps for optimal audio fidelity. When used with a condenser microphone, the preamps shine through, providing high-headroom and low-noise performance for the best possible sound quality. This allows you to capture every nuance of your source audio for studio-grade recordings. Each channel also features a built-in 3-band EQ, allowing you to shape your tone for added control.

Essential effects

The Alesis NanoVerb 2 puts effects that musicians use all the time: reverb, delay, chorus and more at your fingertips with front-facing, easy-to-use controls all in a compact housing that will fit any set up.

Musicians and engineers know that a pro-grade reverb is crucial to adding space and depth to your sound. As with the original NanoVerb, the heart of NanoVerb 2 is its stunning reverb effects. NanoVerb 2's updated, natural-sounding reverbs comprise half of it's effects dial; choose from lush and expansive hall, plate, spring or tape reverbs, and let NanoVerb 2 create just the right space and depth to enhance your studio tracks or live performance.

Expand your sound

NanoVerb 2 isn't just about reverb, it's packed with other must-have effects to expand and enrich your vocals, guitar, keyboard or whatever else you choose to plug in. True stereo delay, chorus, and flange effects are all within easy reach with NanoVerb 2, making it an essential signal processor for nearly any situation.

16 program settings for 256 effects

A solid effects box should give you more than just a few choices on a knob. NanoVerb 2 delivers the goods with 16 different program settings for each of its 16 effects giving you 256 unique effect algorithms. Simply turn to the effect you need, then dial through the program settings to find the one that fits your sound. In addition, Alesis has taken a no-compromise approach to what you will hear when you plug in and choose a setting. NanoVerb 2's 24-bit DSP resolution ensures remarkable sonic quality that allows you to use it for any effects application from guitar to studio recording.
