TouchMix Series
Compact Digital Mixer
TouchMix-16
TouchMix-8
With four (TouchMix-8) or ten (TouchMix-16) auxiliary output channels,
TouchMix also has ample stage monitor mixing capability. Both models have
the ability to drive wired stereo in-ear monitors directly.
Fast, Professional Results
TouchMix-16
The TouchMix Series offers musicians, production professionals and live
performance venues the power and capability of a large format console in a
highly portable, fully integrated, affordable and easy to use product.
Just as digital cameras offer advanced features to meet the needs of skilled
professional photographers combined with “point and shoot” features to
assist novice users in achieving optimum results, the TouchMix-8 (12 input
channels) and TouchMix-16 (20 input channels) provide the user a choice
of Advanced Mode operation that offers total control over all parameters or
Simple Mode that provides only the most essential controls.
“Big Mixer” Features and Specifications
TouchMix Series “no asterisk” specifications include 4-band, fully parametric
EQ with variable hi- and lo-pass filters, as well as comprehensive dynamics
processing on each input channel. Four mix busses feed four internal professional, digital effects processors. Comprehensive dynamics, graphic EQ,
hi-pass, lo-pass and notch filters and delay are available on both the main and
aux outputs and there are 8 DCA groups with mutes as well as 8 mute groups.
TouchMix features a comprehensive library of Channel Presets
created specifically for the unique requirements of live sound reinforcement.
Designed by veteran live sound engineers utilizing all types of instruments,
popular microphones and pickups as well as multiple types of speaker
systems, these presets help the user achieve great results quickly. The
mixers’ onboard Effects Wizard guides the user through the selection and
assignment of appropriate effects while the Gain Wizard continuously
monitors and displays input clipping. TouchMix also comes with a
comprehensive library of complete Mixer Scenes and all user parameters
of any mix can be saved, both internally and via USB drive.
Compact and Complete
The TouchMix Series models are completely self-contained and require no
external PC or video display. The graphic, color touch-screen provides
access to all mix parameters along with a physical rotary encoder and
hardware buttons. The available Remote Control App for iOS * phones and
tablets controls all mixer parameters and the included USB Wi-Fi adapter
creates the network connection between the mixer and the hand-held
device. While no additional hardware is required, wired or wireless
connection to an external or infrastructure router is also supported. The
mixer is also capable of direct, multi-track recording to an external USB hard
drive in 32-bit broadcast wave format. Tracks can be mixed down or played
back on the mixer or imported into most DAW software for over-dubs and
post-production. TouchMix Models also come complete with their own
padded carrying case for transport and protection.

The KLA Series brings the power and sophistication of a line array system
into an easy-to-use product, significantly redefining the line array product
category. With its simple “Lift, Click and Play” approach, KLA can be
deployed in a fraction of the time required by comparable line array
products. This fixed arcuate, active line array system is ideal for a wide
range of portable and permanently installed applications ranging from live
entertainment to houses of worship or other venues where a line array
system is desired.
