16 X 4 X 2 MIC/LINE MIXER
You can consider our CR1604-VLZ an update of our classic CR-1604, but there is so much about it that is new or improved, it’s more of a reincarnation.
Like all of Mackie Designs’ mixers, the CR1604-VLZ is designed for rugged, 24- hours-a-day use. It is a supremely flexible mixer, not just because of its multiple input/output configu- rations, but because of its true 4-bus architecture, 6 aux sends, and extensive routing capabilities. 16 high-headroom, low-noise mic preamps make vocals come through loud and clear, and a low cut filter on each channel keeps unwanted low frequencies from being reproduced.
Completely configurable.
No matter what the appli- cation, the CR1604-VLZ can be configured for optimal use. As a tabletop mixer, input/output jacks can be positioned at the rear of the unit, or with the optional RotoPod-VLZ, positioned
on the same plane as the controls.
Placed in a rack system, the CR1604- VLZ can be set so that jacks are facing front or fac-
ing the rear, keeping wandering hands
from playing with cords. Whether used in a permanent installation, or as a portable mixer, the CR1604-VLZ is completely at home.
Durable and reliable.
Built like a tank, the CR1604-VLZ is a team player that can stand up to vigorous use, day in and day out, any place it is in- stalled. Its sturdy-yet-light steel monocoque construction houses rugged, double-sided through-hole- plated fiberglass circuit boards, and 60mm faders with ultra-tight lip seals for keeping out dust and other contaminants.
Impact-resistant knobs are mounted so they “ride” just above the steel chassis
–they absorb impact without trouble. They’re designed to last, too, thanks to co- molded potentiometers that don’t get brittle and crack up. Then, we use metal stand-offs at regular intervals to mount thick fiberglass circuit boards inside the CR1604-VLZ.
