Without them, the British Invasion might not have happened. Those legendary mixing desks soon became the envy of engineers and producers all over the world. The 3-band channel EQ on the DM12 mixer is based on that very same circuitry, allowing to imbue signals with incredible warmth and detailed musical character. The sweepable mid-frequency band provides a broad tonal palette with which to fine-tune the ideal signal. Even when applied generously, these equalizers exhibit sweet forgiveness and superb audio quality.Dual Aux SendsThe DM12 is also equipped with two aux sends with pre/post fader switching for added versatility. Users can select to use them for external effects processing, custom monitor mixes, or a combination of the two. Additional monitoring outputs are provided of the main mix for stage or studio monitor applications.12 input channels; 8 mono input channels with MIDAS mic preamps60 mm precision long-life fadersRugged chassis construction for durabilityTwo electronically balanced stereo line input channels on 14" connectors3-band EQ on mono channels with swept mid-band Estimated shipping dimensions: 15.8INCH X 5.9INCH X 17.5INCH Estimated shippimg weight: 10.23POUND
