MIX BACK MIXER DESCRIPTION

Mix Back is a flexible 16 x 12 x 2 x 2 monitor 

mixer.  Featuring two stereo and twelve mono 

busses, it’s a perfect companion for Hear Back, 

as well as conventional monitoring systems   

and wireless in-ear systems.  Mix Back is 

equally at home as a stand-alone mains and 

monitor mixer.

Each channel features a signal/clip LED, Gain 

control, 100 Hz hi-pass filter, four-band EQ, 

switch-selectable dual effects sends, two stereo 

volume and pan controls, and twelve mono 

volume controls.

The master section features AFL (After Fade 

Listen) meter/headphone selection, stereo 

auxiliary input, and two effects returns.  A 

built-in talkback mic preamp permits talking to 

any or all of the master outputs as well as a 

balanced output using the optional 

sixteen-button talkback remote.

The sixteen master outputs are available as 

balanced TRS analog, ADAT, and HearBus.
