Overview

Routing a full studio from one desktop unit is the idea: two mic preamps and two instrument inputs feed a touchscreen mixing console with DSP. Four mixers, talkback and monitor control handle cue mixes, while digital and network ports expand the input count.

Engineers who run headphone mixes for musicians get hardware mixers and talkback without a separate console. Digital expansion and network audio leave room to grow. The listing skips operating system support, included cables and size, so confirm those before buying.

Who it's for

Producers and engineers running small sessions with a vocalist and a player get cue mixing and monitor control at the desk. A solo podcaster will pay for routing they never touch.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two headphone outs with separate mixes
  • Talkback and monitor control onboard
  • Record with or without effects
  • Digital expansion over ADAT or S/PDIF
Cons
  • Operating system support not listed
  • No included accessories listed
  • Touchscreen workflow takes learning

Performance notes

Mix control runs on the internal DSP, so cue mixes and effects happen in the unit rather than on the computer, which lowers monitoring delay. Recording pre-FX or post-FX sets whether effects print to the track. Expansion through the optical or network ports adds channels when the preamps run out.
