APB Dynasonics Mix-Switch-C

The MixSwitch™ master features an Announce microphone input and a Stereo Program input for music playback, each with EQ, Limiting and assignment to any of the 4 outputs. An additional Stereo XLR line input allows connection to a third console or facility input. These additional inputs are independent of the primary or secondary console selection (Slave units and MixSwitch™-C lack these additional audio input sources). One bonus provided by these additional inputs is the ability to do an early teardown of the FOH console at the end of a performance; the announce mic and exit music can be routed through the MixSwitch instead of the console reducing load out time and costs.

The MixSwitch™-C is available with a user accessible switch or a Key Lock Switch. This is a simplified version of MixSwitch optimized for Contracting applications or in lower cost touring applications. Only switching and summing functions are available though these functions may be controlled from the front panel or remotely.
