You are bidding on a used Mackie CR1604-VLZ mixing console. This particular mixer is in great working condition (all pots, faders, connectors and lights function). There are some minor scratches, and console tape residue on the front panel which do not affect the function. This is a great mixer for a small recording setup, or PA system for a band.DESCRIPTION:Mackie's CR1604-VLZ is a feature-packed update of what was already a feature-packed classic compact mixer. We collected all the comments from warranty cards sent in for the original CR-1604, and we listened to what our customers wanted. We designed the CR1604-VLZ with those comments in mind -- yet, we didn't let that advice go to our collective head.All too many times a manufacturer forgets what made the first version of a product successful when it comes out with a "new improved" model. Our CR1604-VLZ maintains the original's sound quality, musical equalization, and rugged construction, and keeps intact the multi-configuration possibilities, too.For one thing, the CR1604-VLZ is a true 4-bus mixer. With channel assigns to buses 1-2, 3-4, and main L-R, sub mixes are easy. How about sixteen (16!) high-headroom/low-noise mic preamps? OK. And the new trim control gain structure for both mic and line inputs allow the CR1604-VLZ to handle everything from ultra hot digital multitrack signals to the most timid of vocalists.EQ-wise, the CR1604-VLZ is not only 3-band with 12kHz Hi and 80Hz Lo shelving EQ, its midrange equalization is sweepable from 100Hz to 8kHz. The low cut filter on every channel lets you cut unwanted low frequencies like mic thumps and stage noise with one push of a button. Your low frequency EQ needs can now be met with Lo shelving EQ (rather than using the low EQ to do what the low cut filter was meant to do in the first place).FEATURES: Inserts on every channel 60mm log-taper faders Built-in Power Suppy -20dB signal present LED that doubles as a solo indicator Control Room outputs Mono output volume control AFL/PFL solo for easy level setting and panning adjustments Aux Send 1 & 2 master controls with individual solo switches and LEDs Effects Return to Monitor controls for Aux Sends 1-2 Control Room/Phones source matrix for selecting any combination of Tape, Subs 1-2, Subs 3-4, and Main Mix sources Tape Input level control Tape to Main Mix switch Multi-configuration for easy rackmounting and tabletop setups SPECS:Main Mix Noise 20Hz–20kHz bandwidth, 1 ⁄ 4" Main Out, channel Trims @unity gain, channel EQs flat, all channels assigned to MainMix, odd channels panned left, even channels panned rightMain Mix fader unity, channel faders down: –86.5dBu(90dB Signal to Noise Ratio, ref +4dBu)Main Mix fader @ unity, channel faders @ unity: –84.0dBuTotal Harmonic Distortion (THD) 1kHz @ +14dBu: 20Hz–20kHz Mic in to Main out: below 0.005% Attenuation (Crosstalk) 1kHz relative to 0dBu, 20Hz–20kHz bandwidth, Line in, 1 ⁄ 4" Main Out, Trim @ unityChannel Mute switch engaged: –84dBuChannel Gain knob down: –84dBuFrequency Response Mic input to any output 20Hz to 60kHz: +0dB/–1dB 20Hz to 100kHz: +0dB/–3dB Equivalent Input Noise (EIN) Mic in to Insert Send out, max gain 150 ohm termination: –129.5dBm unweighted Common Mode Rejection (CMR) Mic in to Insert Send out, max gain 1kHz: better than 80dB Maximum Levels Mic in: +14dBu All other inputs: +22dBu Main Mix 1 ⁄ 4" TRS outputs: +28dBuAll other outputs: +22dBuImpedances Mic in: 1.3 kilohms Channel Insert return: 2.5 kilohms All other inputs: 10 kilohms or greater Tape out: 1.1 kilohms All other outputs: 120 ohms EQ High Shelving: ± 15db @ 12kHzMid Peaking: ± 15dB, sweep 100Hz–8kHzLow Shelving: ± 15db @ 80HzLow Cut Fi... read more
