Enjoy the Portability and Quality of a Mackie 802VLZ4 8 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.
