Studiomaster digiLiVE8C Compact Digital Mixer

The Studiomaster digiLiVE8C is a compact eight-input digital mixer with six microphone or line combination inputs and one stereo input channel. Three front-panel rotary encoders provide local mixing control, while a phone, tablet or laptop can access the mixer through a compatible web browser over its network connection. Wireless control uses an external Wi-Fi module, or the mixer can connect through its RJ45 LAN port; a supplied wireless module has not been confirmed. Processing includes four-band parametric equalisation, compression and gating, four effects buses and a graphic equaliser on the main mix. The media player supports playback while recording the left and right main mix as a stereo WAV file. This is stereo mix recording, not a promise of eight isolated USB recording tracks. Balanced XLR master outputs, two TRS monitor sockets, a headphone output and an assignable footswitch input provide further connections. The exact eight-channel model measures three hundred and fifty by ninety by one hundred and eighty millimetres and weighs two kilograms. It is not the smaller four-channel digiLiVE4C and has no built-in touchscreen. Microphones, speakers, a control device and unconfirmed optional accessories are separate.
