Digital Mixer 8 Channels

Digital Mixer 8 Channels

Building on the success of digital mixing desks, QSC has brought something very innovative to the market. For about 20 years the technology around audio equipment has been evolving towards a fully digital reproduction of sound. With the QSC Touchmix 8, this technique has also suddenly become available to smaller acts and groups. The advantage of newer technology is not only the ease of use, but also the size. This mixer is so compact that it can even be taken on the plane as hand luggage.

But why is this kind of technology suddenly so compact? QSC has gone for a different working method. Usually, the audio is controlled by the buttons, which are usually all over the interface. In this day and age when smartphones and tablets are all button-free, digital mixing desks simply couldn’t lag behind. On the QSC Touchmix 8, (almost) all settings are created using the touchscreen. This saves essential space without sacrificing functionality.

Features

Despite its size, this QSC Touchmix 8 has all the features you expect from a digital mixer. Parametric EQ, compressors, gates, auxiliaries and effects. All features are present and also easily accessible via the touchscreen. There is even an extensive library of 120 presets available for the effects. This has been developed together with various artists, which makes for a very useful arsenal of available effects. Are you not a very  experienced technician or are you a band member in charge of taking care of the sound? The QSC Touchmix 8 has a 'simple' mode for this. This hides or blocks many extensive settings, leaving only the essential settings. Getting lost in all the possibilities is then no longer a danger.  Even without extensive knowledge, it’s easy to make a good mix. Are you organizing a conference or seminar and do you want to record the presentations given by your keynote speakers? No problem. This mixing desk is equipped with a USB connection on the back. Simply connect a USB stick to this port and activate the recording function. You can specify exactly which channels you want to record. All channels separately or just the master? No problem. The files will be immediately available on the stick.

Remote Control

As a technician, do you actually need to be in 2 places at the same time? No problem. The QSC Touchmix can be controlled remotely via the 'remote control' app. Simply connect to the mixer and you are ready to control the mixer via the application. Ideal if, for example, you want to listen to the sound on stage and make adjustments right away. It is also possible to let each band member create his own monitor mix or to change microphone volumes even when you’re backstage.
