Description
Musicians, engineers, and producers looking for an affordable hybrid analog/digital mixer will be impressed with the Korg SoundLink MW-2408, a 24x8x2 mixer with advanced features such as mute groups, musician's custom monitor mixes, HiVolt high-headroom mic preamps, 8 mono/4 stereo buses, and a powerful digital section with 32-bit Korg effects, dynamics, and a 31-band paragraphic EQ with integrated spectrum analyzer, well suited for live bands, recording studios, and small broadcast applications.
Designed in conjunction with legendary mixer designers Greg Mackie and Peter Watts, the SoundLink MW-2408 features 16 XLR HiVolt microphone preamps with 16.5V internal voltage for clean high headroom. Line-level inputs are available via 1/4" inputs with mono inputs on channels 1-8 and stereo input on channels 9-24. Each channel offers input gain, EQ, four aux sends, an FX send, pan, mute, overload, and -20 dB LEDs, 8-bus assignment switches, a 60mm fader, and a pre-fader listen switch. Mono channels feature a 3-band EQ with a sweepable mid frequency, a 100 Hz high-pass filter, and a single-knob compressor, while stereo input channels feature a four-band EQ with two fixed-band mid-band EQs.
Outputs include a pair of XLR and 1/4" main outputs, a stereo pair 1/4" monitor outputs, 8 mono / 4 stereo bus outputs, and four aux sends with XLR outputs. Additionally, Aux 3-4 feature 1/4" musician's phones outputs, which allow vocalists and drummers to customize "more me" in their headphone mix. Mute Groups let you choose what combination of channels you want live without having to fiddle with multiple channels. Press one of 4 Mute Group buttons, and touch the channels' Mutes you want as part of the Mute Group.
The digital section features studio-quality dynamics processing with two types of compressors, two types of noise gates, and a limiter, as well as antifeedback functions, and dedicated EQs for Main L/R and Aux 1-2. The 31-band spectrum analyzer works in conjunction with the paragraphic EQ, which provides access to 9 selectable bands out of 31 bands for fast and efficient feedback suppression. The onboard digital effects utilize a 32-bit DSP engine and offer 20 types of effects from reverbs and delays to modulation FX and test tones. All digital settings can be saved and recalled for fast and efficient operation. The SoundLink MW-2408 can be rack mounted with optional rack ears. The mixer ships with a power cord and includes iZotope RX Elements
