AVLEX DEBUTS NEW MX8-1RM MIC-LINE MIXER
Single space rackmount audio mixer ideal for multiple
applications
Kansas City, MO – AES booth #1060 – October 2007 …
Avlex Corporation, the name audio professionals turn to for world-class
wireless technology, microphones, and portable PA systems, is pleased
to introduce the new Avlex MX8-1RM Mic-Line Mixer. This versatile 1RU
rackmount audio mixer supporting eight mic/line channels—each
with its own volume and tone control—is the ideal tool for a wide
range of sound reinforcement applications, including boardrooms and
presentation spaces, small theaters or churches, as well as being an
excellent choice as a submix into a larger mixing system.
The new Avlex MX8-1RM features a wealth of useful features for today’s
sound reinforcement professional. With an easy-to-grasp, logically laid
out front panel that provides eight mic/line channels—each with
its own volume and tone control—as well as a Master Volume control
and a power On/Off switch, the MX8-1RM provides quick access to the
mixer’s most critical functions. To accommodate a broad range
of input sources, the MX8-1RM’s rear panel provides six channels
with balanced XLR and quarter-inch TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) mic/line inputs,
along with two channels of RCA unbalanced line inputs and quarter-inch
TRS balanced mic/line inputs. With the ability to accommodate everything
from wired and wireless microphones to CD players, the Avlex MX8-1RM
Mic-Line Mixer is well suited for most any sound reinforcement task.
Of particular note, the new MX8-1RM features eight 48 Volt Phantom
power dip switches—one for each microphone input. This feature
makes the mixer ideally suited for connecting upwards of eight high
quality cardioid condenser microphones (which typically require Phantom
power). This capability enables the MX8-1RM to be used as part of a
recording setup for capturing live performances. With both quarter-inch
TRS and XLR balanced main outputs, the new MX8-1RM can easily be interfaced
with numerous types of professional audio equipment.
Featuring both Aux/Bus inputs as well as a Pre-Fader output, the new
Avlex MX8-1RM can easily be expanded to create a larger capacity mixing
system. For example, by connecting the Pre-Fader output of an MX8-1RM
to the Aux/Bus input of a second such unit, the two MX8-1RM audio mixers
can easily be cascaded into a sixteen channel system. By daisy chaining
multiple units together in this fashion, the system offers tremendous
growth potential.
The new Avlex MX8-1RM mixer’s performance is every bit as impressive
as its feature set. With a THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) rating of
<0.003%, a signal-to-noise ratio of 106 dB, and a frequency response
ranging from 16 Hz – 22 kHz (-3 dB), the Avlex MX8-1RM delivers
clean, quiet, audio performance. Housed in a rugged metal enclosure
and weighing a mere 4.8 pounds, the Avlex MX8-1RM Mic-Line Mixer makes
an outstanding choice for a myriad of audio mixing tasks.
Jack Nead, national sales manager for Avlex Corporation, commented
on the new MX8-1RM Mic-Line Mixer, “The MX8-1RM is a compact,
low profile, rackmountable audio mixer that addresses a wide range of
mixing tasks. With the ability to connect everything from high quality
studio microphones for recording purposes to wireless and wired mics
for live sound reinforcement, the MX8-1RM is a versatile tool that is
right at home in almost any audio setting. With all the right input/output
connections that enable this mixer to interface with a broad range of
audio gear, I’m confident the MX8-1RM will prove invaluable to
musicians and live sound engineers in addition to being a terrific piece
for the contractor market.”
The new Avlex MX8-1RM Mic-Line Mixer carries a MSRP of $240. The mixer
is available now.
