PreSonus StudioLive 16.0.2 USB 16-Channel Performance and Recording Digital Mixer with USB

When you’re mixing a live event or have an artist in the studio, you need to be able to work quickly. The StudioLive 16.0.2 USB’s familiar, easy-to-use interface keeps all critical controls visible and accessible not buried in menus or layers. Our design philosophy is simple: One fader for every mono or stereo channel; one output for every bus. Add to that easily accessed, color-coded function buttons; rotary trim controls; and clearly labeled, individual knobs for EQ and dynamics processing. Aux sends have their own physical controls. Every channel has a big, bright meter display. But don’t let the analog feel fool you: The StudioLive 16.0.2 USB offers the power of modern digital mixing, multitrack recording, wireless remote control, and more.
