2-Piece Portable FireWire
Recording System
An innovative approach to digital recording, the Onyx Satellite
features a two-part audio interface designed to get the best out
of computer recording in both live and studio environments. The
heart of the Satellite System is the Satellite Pod, a sleek, portable two-channel
FireWire interface that incorporates two of Mackie's acclaimed Onyx preamps, as
well as 24-bit/96kHz A/D and D/A converters. Additional Satellite Pod features include dual
headphone/control room outputs with individual level controls, two inputs, two outputs, and a rugged portable design.
ONYX 400F
10-Channel FireWire Interface
The Onyx 400F is a10-channel, 192kHz-capable
FireWire audio interface that features flagship
Mackie Onyx microphone preamps, as well as
on-board DSP matrix mixing. The 400F’s
on-board DSP mixing matrix allows latency free
headphone mixing and routing independent of
the DAW software. This is a particularly useful feature for those operating older DAW-based systems where processing
power is limited. Front panel controls on the Onyx 400F include control-room output level, dual independent headphone
outputs with dedicated level control, dual instrument inputs, and four-segment metering for the mic inputs. The rear
panel includes four combo mic/line inputs, balanced TRS sends and returns for the first two mic inputs, four line inputs,
eight line outputs, Control Room outputs, Word Clock I/O, MIDI I/O, SPDIF I/O and two FireWire ports. The1U rackmount
steel chassis features an extruded aluminum front panel with machined aluminum knobs. A black plastic accent strip is
flushed mounted into the front panel to complete the look.
The Onyx 400F is bundled with a complete software package which includes Tracktion, Mackie's audio recording and
MIDI production software, as well as the Mackie Final Mix mastering toolkit.
