Alto Professional LIVE-1604 Mixer 16-Ch w/ Effects & USB

Professional Mixing Features

The Alto Professional Live 1604 is a pro 16-channel, 4-bus mixer

equipped with the tools you need to create the perfect mix. With

flexible routing options and a multitude of onboard DSP tools, Live

1604 fits the demands of nearly any live performance environment. It

features 10 balanced XLR inputs with switchable phantom power,

3-band EQs with sweepable mids for additional tonal shaping, four

aux sends per-channel for external effects and monitoring, and a

9-band graphic EQ for main or monitor outputs. A headphone jack with

an independent level control enables additional monitoring and

mixing. 60mm faders with LED meters provide precise control and

visual feedback for accurate, hands-on mixing. With its diverse

connectivity options, Live 1604 can handle any sized event from

small coffee house gigs to mid-sized ensembles to full-stage rock

bands.

Analog Compression & Superior Sound Quality

Live 1604 offers high-fidelity sound and high-quality DSP tools in a

single package. Each microphone channel is outfitted with a

high-headroom ultra-low-noise DNA™ microphone preamp for

unprecedented sound quality and a robust audio signal path. Live

1604’s high headroom results in cleaner mixes, a purer signal path,

and loud, punchy audio. Onboard analog compression (channels 1-6)

helps control dynamics and gel instruments together for a cohesive,

defined mix. With high headroom, pristine sound, and built-in

dynamic control, Live 1604 ensures that the full dynamic range of

your mix comes across with striking clarity.

USB Audio Interface

Record your mix directly to a Mac or PC with a single USB

connection. Live 1604’s built-in USB port allows engineers,

producers, and performers to convert two channels of 24-bit audio

(Main Mix or Sub Mix 1/2) straight to a computer. Record live

performances, band practices, theater performances, speaking events,

and any other live sound event onto your computer for additional

editing, mixing, and post-production. The USB connection is

bi-directional, enabling sound files stored on your computer to be

streamed to and played through Live 1604.

100 High-Quality Alesis DSP Effects

Live 1604 comes ready to handle any mixing situation with premium

24-bit Alesis effects built right into its design. Select from 100

DSP effects that give you additional creative control in any mixing

environment. Choose from room and space delays, small and large hall

acoustics, plate and spring reverbs, flangers, choruses, and more.

The effects presets make it easy to dial in your favorite sound or

experiment with different effect settings on the fly.

Color-coded Interface

Often, live sound environments are dimly lit and offer poor

visibility to the mixing engineer. Live 1604 solves this problem by

color coding each section of the mixer and providing brightly

colored knobs so you can quickly and easily find what you need to

adjust. Blue, green, red, yellow and white pots are instantly easy

to identify in low lighting. LED indicators for output level, peak,

and phantom power also assist in making sure that you have multiple

visual cues that reflect everything you're hearing. Specifications:
