Selling the legendary Mackie 1604 VLZ Analog Mixer – An absolute workhorse for studio, rehearsal room, and live stage!

Up for sale is the world-famous classic among compact mixing consoles: The Mackie 1604 VLZ. Anyone familiar with Mackie knows their legendary "Built-Like-A-Tank" construction – this desk is extremely robust, offers massive headroom, and delivers a very clean, low-noise sound (Very Low Impedance design).

Whether for live bands, DJs, sub-mixes for synthesizer setups, or classic analog studio recording: the 1604's flexible routing remains unmatched to this day. The patchbay (pod) can also be rotated, allowing the mixer to sit perfectly flat on a desktop or be mounted directly into a 19-inch rack.

Key Technical Specifications at a Glance:

• 16 Mono Channels: Fully equipped with XLR microphone and jack line inputs, as well as channel inserts.

• Microphone Preamps: Extremely low-noise preamps with high dynamic range and switchable +48V phantom power.

• 3-Band EQ: Featuring parametric (sweepable) mids for precise frequency corrections and a 75 Hz low-cut filter.

• 6 Aux Sends & 4 Stereo Aux Returns: Ideal for extensive monitor mixes and integrating external effects processors.

• 4 True Subgroups: Perfect for grouping drums, background vocals, or instrument sections.

• 8 Direct Outputs: Excellent for multitrack recording in the studio.
