The Alesis MultiMix 8USB Mixer with USB and DSP is a compact 8-channel desk. It combines studio-quality components and effects processing with solid construction and a sweet price.

USB port adds computer connectivity for plug-and-play Mac and PC operation.
Stereo USB input and output — routes the main ouput and the 2-track return through the USB port in 16-bit, 44.1 kHz stereo digital audio, which enables you to use the MultiMix as a soundcard.

4 high-gain preamps with phantom power
Equipped with 4 high-gain mic/line (XLR and 1/4" balanced) inputs with phantom power, 2 stereo balanced 1/4" line inputs, plus 100 onboard preset effects including reverbs, delays, chorus, flanging, pitch, and multi-effects. You can select one on-board effect and control its level with the Aux B knob for each channel. Or you can use an external effects processor by sending a signal to the external unit via the Aux Send A and returning it via Aux Return A.

Alesis MultiMix 8 USB additional I/O
Other I/O includes 2 aux sends (Aux 1 is pre/post switchable, Aux 2 is post and can send to onboard or external effects), 2 stereo aux returns, 2-track stereo RCA I/O, separate 1/4" balanced main and monitor and headphone outs. Other features include separate pan/balance, listen/solo in place, mute/bus, and 3-band EQ per channel with high/low shelving and mid bandpass/reject.

The MultiMix 8 USB gives you 8 audio inputs in all: 4 mono XLR or 1/4" TRS plus 2 x stereo 1/4" (4 total). If you want to bring external audio sources into a recording or live mix, you can do it in several different ways. Using the 2-Track In, you can add a tape deck, ADAT, CD player or other source to the mix. The 2-Track In also can be used to entertain the audience with a CD as the band is setting up for a live show. The Aux Returns can be used as additional audio inputs when you are not using them for effects.

The MultiMix 8USB ships with Cubase LE for powerful audio/MIDI recording and VST hosting.
