Does one spend big bucks for a big console or petty cash for a mini mixer with a mini sound? One is overkill and the other killed the music. These days, studios based around workstations need a simple but superb mixer, and many had hoped for it to have that Manley sound.  The LINE version has 16 line inputs, with one aux send per channel. The LINE version is intended for workstations and allows users to avoid the digital mix buss which is often less than great sounding. Folks with huge expensive keyboard rigs who have inexpensive mixers that just ain't cutting it have also been grabbing up the \u003cstrong\u003eManley Labs 16x2 LINE Mixer\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eXLR\/1\/4\" combo inputs, direct outputs post fader balanced 1\/4\" One mono Aux mix, stereo Ext input (for linking) (no gain trim), stereo Tape return, Mix gain with both XLR balanced and 1\/4\" +4 dBm unbalanced outputs. 5 position Monitor select including mono, 2 VU meters, Monitor level, mute, dim and Main\/Mini outputs (unbalanced)\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach of the 16 channels has a volume control, pan and aux knobs plus lit EAO solo and mute buttons. Internal jumper to allow Aux to be Pre-Fade, Pre-Mute, or Post-Fade and Mute.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eWHAT'S IN THIS THING?\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach channel uses the best sounding chips (Burr Brown INA103, OPA2604, Linear Technology LT1010) in Hutch's circuits with exceptional headroom and very low noise, real pro level input and output levels, and bulletproof Manley quality throughout. Spec-wise know of no mixer ever with better headroom or higher output levels and, well, this mixer's subterranean noise floor and crosstalk figures are simply quite amazing. The signal path has just 3 superb polystyrene caps from input to output. No carbon resistors, just 1\/2 watt metal film, Bourns conductive plastic pots, Grayhill stepped attenuators, etc. All the good stuff. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMutes and Solos use superior relay switching techniques not crummy FETs or CMOS switching. Please! The Solo is of the \"mute everything else\" type. The buttons are EAO Series 19 and light up to indicate Mute and Solo. Insert and Phase Reverse also use high quality relays and both functions have tiny switches and red LED's to clearly indicate when they're selected. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe master section provides mixdown to 2 channels achieved with similar tube circuits as used in the Massive Passive, featuring two each 12AT7 NOS Phillips \u0026amp; 6414 NOS GE or Raytheon dual triodes. External inputs allow two or more mixers to be combined for 32 or more channels with a mini-banana post linking the Solo functions. There are both transformer balanced and transformerless unbalanced (+4 dBm) outputs with tons of headroom. Max output level is +36 dBu, about 10 dB better than million-dollar consoles. The master section has an aux mix gain (master effects send) in the LINE version and an Ext input gain in the MIC version. There are two sets of monitor outputs, MAIN and MINI, so you can feed two different sets of power amps or powered speakers. There are MUTE and DIM buttons plus a rotary switch to monitor the main mix, the mono mix, 2 track tape playback (more balanced inputs), the Ext inputs (for linked consoles or effects returns), and the aux mix (only on LINE version). \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe dedicated power supply unit cranking out all the necessary filtered and regulated DC voltages to power up this beast is external further reducing noise and heat.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manley Labs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450975613031,"sku":"158748","price":4850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/manley-16x2-line-mixer-m16ml193-used_158748_1_82c59ff9-2d58-4ed4-836e-df2cbe51290a.jpg?v=1787095332","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/manley-16x2-line-mixer-m16ml193-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
