Studiomaster lines up Frankfurt mixer debuts

Studiomaster is debuting its latest compact mixers at Prolight + Sound/Musikmesse.

The digiLive 16RS and the self-powered digiLive 16P-600 are compact rackmount digital mixers designed to be used in AV installations, small music venues and houses of worship and can also be used as a dedicated monitor mixing solution when used in conjunction with the accompanying iPad app.

The mixers share the same 16 input, 16 bus and 8 FX bus format of the digiLiVE 16 compact mixer that was introduced last year. The 16RS features two XLR L/R master outs and six configurable ‘smart’ outputs, and the 16P-600, four ‘smart’ XLR outputs and four 150 W RMS class-D power amplifiers. The 16 inputs are configured as 12 mic/line and 2 stereo on both models, and both also sport digital S/PDIF I/O and AES-EBU output, as well as a USB interface.

Also being shown for the first time in Europe is an upgrade to its LIVESYS5 micro PA / powered monitor system; the LIVESYS5/S adds SD / USB record and playout, and Bluetooth playout. While two all-new class-D power amplifier series – the HX and QX – offer 2 and 4-channel models with top of the range power ratings in excess of 2 x 500 W and 2 x 9500 W, respectively.
