12-, 16- and 20-Channel Audio Mixers
with Digital Effects
Available in 12 (CFX-12), 16 (CFX-16) and 20-channel (CFX-20) con-
figurations, the CFX mixers incorporate digital effects and a 9-band
graphic EQ to offer all-in-one compact mixing solutions. Sounding clean
and realistic, the effects processor rivals many outboard processors, while
the graphic EQ on the output section is of “audiophile-quality” which means low
noise, free of phase distortion. The mixers also feature low noise and high headroom as well
as balanced I/Os and multiple busing options. For live performance, a unique break switch can mute
the entire mixer (except for the two-track return input) as well as the effects and graphic EQ sections.
