Achieve Pristine Sound Quality With 18 Midas Mic Preamps

The preamps enable you to capture performances with lifelike dynamics and clarity. Each input channel also provides low-cut filters, parametric EQs, gates and compressors for sculpting sounds exactly how you want them.

At the same time, you can dial in zero-latency monitoring mixes complete with studio-grade effects. Capture inspired performances without compromise.

Shape Your Sound With Premium Effects

Onboard the X AIR X18 are four effects engines based on the acclaimed FX in the X32 console. Use vintage reverbs like the Lexicon 480L and rich delays to add depth and texture to your mix. The effects run inside the low-latency X32 environment, ensuring flawless performance as you experiment.

Automix Multiple Mics With Gain Sharing

When using multiple open mics, the X AIR X18's Gain Sharing technology maintains consistent gain structure automatically. Reduce feedback and noise when speakers are close together on stage or in an interview setting. Just select the mics you want to group and Gain Sharing makes the levels work smoothly.
