About the MultiMix-8FX

The MultiMix-8FX is the latest in the large family of Alesis audio mixers. We’ve come a long way since the 1622 mixer we first built in 1989. Since that time audio technology has grown in leaps and bounds, pushing up quality and driving down prices. Only a few years ago, you wouldn’t have been able to buy a mixer this powerful for such an affordable price. Just take a look at the key features listed below, and you’ll see that you have just made an incredible addition to your home studio or live setup.

The MultiMix-8FX gives you just about everything you need to create polished, professional-sounding mixes When designing this unit, our goal was to give you as much control over your mixes as possible without requiring a wealth of extra equipment. That’s why we added tools like the digital effects processor and the mic preamps. And with a multitude of ways in which to connect other equipment and instruments, the MultiMix-8FX offers endless possibilities.
