Ideal for small bars, podcasting, and home recording, the Astatic M2 from CAD is a multipurpose 2-channel analog mixer with an integrated USB audio interface capable of sending 24-bit / 48 kHz audio to and from a computer. With two combo XLR-1/4" mic/instrument inputs and USB bus power, you can handle numerous audio tasks at home or on the go.

Each mic/line input channel features selectable +48V phantom power for condenser mics (affects both channels), 2-band EQ control, channel level control, and Hi or Lo gain settings via push button. You can also push a button to convert the two mic/line inputs into a single stereo channel. You can also insert FX individually for each channel with dedicated FX Decay and FX Level controls. There is also a 3.5mm mic input which shares the Mic/Line 2 channel and can be used for wireless mic receivers or combined with the 1/4" headphone output for headsets. Finally, there is a stereo pair of balanced 1/4" TRS outputs for the main mix, ideal for studio monitors.
