Audio mixer

Description:

A compact field audio recorder and mixer with 32-bit float recording, six analogue inputs and eight-track recording. Suitable for film shoots, interviews, documentaries, sound effects and multi-microphone production sound.

Details:

The MixPre-6 II has four low-noise Kashmir microphone preamps that accept production microphones and provide 48 V phantom power. Its 32-bit float recording offers a wide dynamic range, making unexpectedly quiet or loud signals easier to adjust in post-production.

A built-in timecode generator allows synchronisation with various cameras and other audio recorders. It works as a standalone recorder to SD card, or as a computer audio interface over USB-C. Its small size makes it practical in a sound bag or mounted directly on a camera.
