16 x 4 Compact Mixer
The highest headroom and lowest noise of any mixer in its class, the 1604’s
flexible 4-bus architecture is ready for just about any project recording studio
or live venue. Post production and broadcast facilities will also appreciate
the myriad routing possibilities.VLZ design ensures quiet mixes with all
16 channels open during mix down, while the XDR mic preamps reveal
all of the subtleties and nuances of your favorite condenser mic. Mackie’s
rotopod design and supplied rackmount hardware allows you to configure
the mixer 5 ways by allowing you to rotate the input and output jacks to the top, back or
front of the mixer with or without rackmounting. With unprecedented sonic performance, bandwidth, dynamic range and versatility,
the 1604-VLZ meets the demands of the most sophisticated digital audio workstations —while remaining totally affordable.

DFX-6 / DFX-12
Compact Live Sound Mixers with EFX
Combining Mackie’s sound quality with an extensive feature set, the DFX-6 and DFX-12 are
designed specifically for solo or small performing groups that don’t have the luxury of a front-of-
house sound technician. All knobs are color-coded and can be easily identified at a glance.
Channel faders are white. Effects and Monitor Sends are red. Master level faders are blue. The
jack field is on the top surface so connections are immediate and every channel has a level set and
overload LED that can be easily seen on a dark stage. Both include a combination of mic/line and
stereo line inputs, silky smooth 60mm faders, and Mackie’s proprietary 32-bit EMAC custom
digital effects processor with 16 effects. Each also offers low-noise, low-distortion, studio-grade
mic preamps wrapped in a box rugged enough to withstand years of on-the-road wear and tear.
