Get Unmatched Performance With The Mackie 1604VLZ4 16-Channel Compact Analog Mixer

Each generation of Mackie VLZ mixers benefits from a reinvestment in performance, all without raising prices. By continuing to ignore the “race to the bottom,” Mackie VLZ4 benefits from generations of performance improvements like transparent EQ, class-leading negative summing bus architecture and custom-designed op-amps to ensure signal integrity from every input to every output. The result is a Mackie mixer that is at the peak of performance and is the obvious go-to compact analog mixer for engineers who demand professional results.

HIGH HEADROOM / LOW NOISE

The Mackie VLZ4 design goal was simple: every Mackie VLZ4 mixer must have the highest headroom and lowest noise possible. Strict attention to component quality and tolerances has led to innovations like the custom M80 op-amps and class-leading negative summing bus architecture that add yet another level of assurance that a Mackie Mackie VLZ4 mixer is the right choice for your professional audio application.

ONYX PREAMPS

The performance of Mackie’s Onyx mic preamps is more than proven. Just check all the amazing reviews and customer testimonials. Their boutique quality sound and unmatched performance rival any high-priced, boutique preamp on the market. There are 16 Onyx Preamps featured on the 1604VLZ4 compact mixer.

BUILT LIKE A TANK

Mackie VLZ mixers are truly “Built-Like-A-Tank.” From beer spills to drops from moving vehicles, the testimonials are as endless as the applications Mackie mixers serve. The Mackie VLZ4 series is certainly no exception. With a nearly indestructible steel wrap-around chassis and features like grime-resistant rotary sealed pots, you can be sure that buying a Mackie VLZ4 mixer is a solid investment.
