Phonic Sonic Station 16 Overview

The Sonic Station 16 Recording Mixer with Dual-Position I/O Pod & DFX from Phonic features 16 channels, each with a microphone preamp and balanced line input. The 3-band EQ with swept mid, insert points for connection to external processors, six aux send mixing bus (two aux sends with pre/post buttons), and eight direct outputs for multitrack recording, allow users flexibility with mix control and signal routing. Each channel has an aux 5/6 shift button, expanding the number of outputs available.

The mixer features a dual-position input/output pod that lets you use it as a desktop mixer or reconfigure it for rack mounting. The I/O pod rotates out of the way to save space in your rack. The built-in 32/40-bit digital effect processor has 16 programs, a single main parameter control, foot switch on/off control, and tap tempo delay. In order to avoid "sub" sonic noise in your microphones, hit the low cut filter to get rid of the P-pops, stage rumble, and wind noise. With a subwoofer output, four true subgroups, and global phantom power, this mixer is suitable for live events and studio mixing.
