SPL MixDream Analogue Summing Unit
High End Analogue Summing
The MixDream outboard mixer allows studio engineers to inject highly desirable analogue warmth into any mix. Featuring 16 individual audio track inputs and a summed stereo output, MixDream can extend a digital audio workstation software (or console) to bring a mix together into a beautifully finished final product.
For larger mixes with a scope beyond 16 tracks, multiple MixDream units can also be cascaded to scale to a user’s specific requirements.
Compete Control
The MixDream offers unique set of insert and processing options to ensure ultimate flexibility at the summing down stage. Each input is fitted with a switchable insert loop, signal-present LED indicator and 3-stage toggle switches to determine whether a channel is included or removed from the mixes.
SPL’s No-Mix switch actively removes any channel directly from a mix while still keeping it live for direct output functions. This ‘bounce-back’ style functionality can be used to great effect particularly while re-recording using outboard effects such as compression.
