  • All eight (8) inputs are software configurable
  • Accepts condenser or dynamic microphones as well as line inputs
  • Inputs can be mixed to deliver:
    • Four (4) discrete recording channels, and
    • Four (4) mono output channels, for delivery to teleconferencing or videoconferencing applications
  • Master composite output available for delivery to a public address system
The simplicity of the DMX-8 USB Mixer makes it an ideal choice for courts that need excellent audio performance and reliability in a wide variety of digital recording environments.

The DMX-4 USB Mixer

The DMX-4 USB Mixer is a software-controlled hardware solution that combines the functions of a 4-channel mic pre-amp with 4-channel audio encoder card in a single compact device. Thus, all analog signal processing takes place within the mixer and the four (4) digital recording channels are delivered to the recording computer, through the USB 2.0 interface.

The DMX-4 has four (4) balanced XLR mic/line inputs that can be mixed in any combination to four (4) digitized recording outputs.  The mic inputs are software configurable to accept either dynamic, condenser, balanced or unbalanced (mic/line-level, and phantom powered inputs.
