## Description

Introducing MultiMix 8 USB FX - versatile mixing at its finest Whether it’s mixing a live performance or capturing that perfect studio take, MultiMix 8 USB FX with its versatile connectivity options, built-in effects and on-board audio interface guarantees you are ready for any situation. Fusing microphone inputs with phantom power, guitar direct inputs (DI), and line-level inputs for connecting everything else, the MultiMix 8 USB FX delivers clean audio to your PA or recording system plus a hassle free, driverless computer connection. Plug it in MultiMix 8 USB FX features four XLR inputs with independent gain pots on channels 1 - 4. These XLR inputs also have a switchable phantom power option to accommodate both dynamic and condenser microphones. TRS Line inputs are also available on all eight channels. New to the MultiMix 8 USB FX is a high-impedance (hi-Z) input on channel 2, which allows direct connection of a guitar or bass; this is a great convenience for singer/songwriters looking to get a clean, hot signal. A Tape RCA stereo input is also included adding the ability to mix in audio from other sources such as a CD or LP player.Get in the mix Ideal for live sound engineering or home recording, MultiMix 8 USB FX features onboard volume, pan, and EQ controls (three-band with sweepable parametric mids on channels 1 and 2, three-band on 3 and 4, two-band on 5 - 8) for making quick, accurate adjustments to your mix. The MultiMix 8 USB FX mixer has a two-channel, five-stage, multicolor LED meter for visual monitoring the main output level. Channels 1 - 4 offer switchable high-pass filtering at 80 Hz to reduce low-frequency rumble, handling, and wind noise. For convenient stereo mixing and recording, channels 5/6 and 7/8 are configured as a stereo pairs at the EQ, level and pan controls.Built-in effects MultiMix 8 USB FX includes an internal effects processor to quickly and easily add new colours to your mix. Reverb, Delay or Phaser can be dialled up simply by adjusting the pre or post fader knobs located within each channel strip. MultiMix 8 USB FX also contains Aux Out and stereo Returns, as well as Insert jacks on channels one and two for audio processing by external effects engines. Record via USB The MultiMix 8 USB FX contains a complete USB audio interface. Musicians and engineers can plug the MultiMix 8 USB FX’s class-compliant USB connection into their Mac or PC without installing any software drivers and enjoy a digital-direct stereo connection with virtually any digital audio workstation (DAW). The MultiMix 8 USB FX enables a bidirectional stereo signal path, so musicians can record the stereo main output into their computer and listen back using the mixer as an interface from software to headphones and monitoring loudspeakers. A number of key design improvements are included on the MultiMix 8 USB FX. Enlarged knob-to-knob spacing improves ergonomics and ease-of-use. The newly-designed mixer introduces a sleek new appearance for the MultiMix series and incorporates new, removable end caps, which can be helpful for squeezing the MultiMix 8 USB FX into smaller spaces in tightly-packed setups. In addition to its improved signal-to-noise ratio, the new mixer consumes 36 percent less power than its predecessor. Professional software suite The MultiMix 8 USB FX includes all the software you need to begin your production. ProTools is the industry standard for recording software and the teams at Alesis and AVID have crafted a version of this amazing audio and MIDI recording suite. ProTools | First Alesis Edition features Unlimited Busses, Elastic Time and Elastic Pitch, Offline Bounce and 1 GB of free cloud storage space for collaboration or accessing projects from any computer anywhere that is connected to the internet - plus full compatibility with all the included AIR Music Tech Virtual Instruments. This special bundle also includes the AIR Mini Grand virtual piano, DB-33 virtual organ and Eleven Lite, with over 20 high-quality guitar, amp and effect models.

Review: Basic straight forward 4-input usb mixer - built like a tank - I'd spent a lot of time looking for a usb mixer and had real trouble finding one that had all the features that I wanted - at least 4 inputs, built in effects, usb out, phantom power and able to act as a stand alone mixer, on/off switch - and wasn't too large or too complicated. This Alesis mixer has all the features that I wanted and is only 18 x 22 x 06 cm. The first thing I noticed when I picked up the box was that it was heavy - this thing is built like a tank, steel facia and back, with plastic sides and the knobs and switches all feel quality. In line with most 4 track mixers inputs 1 and 2 have XLR and jack inputs and separate EQ controls and inputs 3 and 4 are just jack inputs and share one set of EQ controls. Inputs 1 and 2 have both gain and level knobs, as well as pan knobs, while 3 and 4 just have level knobs. Inputs 1 and 2 also have 80HZ low cut switches and input two has a guitar switch to accept high impedance signals. There are 15 effects - 8 reverb, 2 delay, 3 modulation (chorus, flange and rotary) and two multi (chorus and reverb) plus a bypass setting. Effects are dialled in via the selector knob and controlled by both a FX send knob on the inputs and a master FX return level knob. On the back are the power 18V power input, on/off switch, phantom power switch and the usb out socket. The unit comes with short, straight-forward instructions in English and I was very quickly able to get it up and running. Everything works as you would expect in a straight-forward manner, when connected to my iMac it immediately recognised the Alesis and I was able to transfer data. The gain and level knobs are a good feature and on most things that I've plugged in - electric guitars, acoustic guitars, ukuleles, mics, condenser mics etc - I've quickly been able to adjust the signal and get a usable sound. The headphone inputs works fine and there is also a mini jack input to connect mp3 players etc which I haven't used yet. The effects are quite subtle and don't sound synthetic, they are easily adjusted via the send and return knobs. All in all I am very pleased with this mixer, I had considered mixers with more inputs and controls and I'm so glad that I didn't go down that road, the simplicity of this Alesis mixer makes it so easy to use and when lockdown is over and I get a chance to use it in a live setting I'm sure it will come into its own on a dimly lit stage. There are cheaper mixers out there with more features but this does feel quality and I'm sure that it will last.
Review: Alesis Multimix 8 USB - I purchased this deck after reading the reviews and I am glad I did. Its ideal for my home recording and plugs straight into my PC. Using ASIO4All driver there is minimal latency. The only critism is that it has only one channel for guitar, but I can still work with this. Its a very robust design and the knobs are nice and smooth. It also fits on my desk tray with plenty of room around it. I used to have a Behringer, which only lasted about 6 years and gradually degraded until it did not work at all, so I won't by Behringer again until their quality gets better. In summary the Alesis has exceeded my expectations and would recommend this for the home recordist.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I'm looking to do live mutitrack recording. does the usb interface send more then one stereo master track?**
A: Evening... I downsized from the Multimix 4 to a two-channel mixer, basically used for my audio book recordings. If memory serves me correctly, this does offer 2 track in/out via the bus (stereo, of course). Sorry I couldn't be of more help...have you checked out the specs at places such as B&H, Sweetwater, zZounds and so on?

**Q: What is the difference between the main out, and monitor out? Can I control two sets of speakers, and a headphone volume independently with this mixe?**
A: Main out is for speakers, such as a PA. Monitor out can be speakers or headphones. All can be on at once.

**Q: If i'm doing a podast, can i record plug my phone into any of these ports and record a call? alongside two xlr mics.**
A: Hi Matt,Alesis support here! You can connect your phone from the headphone jack to any of the line-level inputs, and it will record alongside two XLR mics. If you have any other questions for me, please feel free to email me directly at mvieira@inmusicbrands.com.

**Q: Does this come with cubase le download?**
A: Yes, it does come with a download code.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good mixer with many features
*by C***N on 12 February 2015*

Good mixer for the price, with many features including USB, microphone inputs, 2x stereo line ins for keyboards, drums, etc and a passive pick-up guitar line in. Also comes with Steinberg Software. The only problem with it is the registration of the software did not work properly so I have only a trial period to use it. I have read others had a similar problem. Luckily, I prefer Cubase software so it does not really affect me.
