M16

M16 is a 2 rack unit high performance digital mixer. On the front panel, among its 12 input connectors, 8 of them can be used as MIC or LINE. Together with the 16 Mic/Line Inputs, 4 AUX Output channels (two of them can be selcted as Monitor Outputs mirrors) and MAIN LEFT and RIGHT channels are available on XLR connectors, the 4 Line Inputs are on ¼ Jack. On ¼ Jack is also available an earphone connector, whose gain is adjustable, available as MONITOR OUTPUT
The M16 supports USB stereo recording. By connecting a USB Stick to front panel's USB connector, the M16 is providing stereo or dual-channel recording and playback, allowing to select the recording source in between input and output channels. M16 is managed with powerful MARANI® DSP engines, providing a series of sophisticated audio processes like up to 1024 taps FIR filtering on MAIN LEFT and RIGHT Outputs, Effects, Ducker, RTA, Feedback Eliminator, Automixer and more. Moreover, each input and output channel contains Parametric Equalization, RMS Compressor, delay and other useful processes. On Each output is also available a 31 bands graphic Equalizer.
In addition, there's a WIFI module inside the M16, making it more convenient to connect the device with its dedicated PC interface software or iPad APP, for real time monitor and parameters editing, especially in studio and live performance applications. Each device can be connected by up to 4 WiFi connections (Pc or iPad) and 10 Ethernet connections (Pc), for a total of 14 devices connected at the same time.
If a modification to the M16 setting is done with one of the devices, the modification is reported automatically to all the others connected in parallel. Firmware update is also available via simple software operation.

To the embedded 12 channels, 4 more Input Channels can be added via extension cards: the extension cards can be different and allow the extra 4 channels to come from different sources as standard analog ones, AES or Dante™.

Outstanding Performance	12 Embedded Input channels: 8xMIC/LINE + 4xLINE 4 Input channels from Extension Card: 4xLINE; 4x AES; 4x Dante™ Any MIC is with a Phantom 48V Power, selectable between on and off 4 AUX Outputs (2 mirroring Monitor on selection) plus 2 Main Left and Right Outputs and 2 Monitor outputs on stereo ¼ Jack 8 x Silencer™ MIC Preamp Automatic Overflow Control for Clipping Removal on internal processes
Top-grade DSP Engine	4 PEQs for each input channel, selectable as Bell, Hi/Lo-Shevling or Morph EQ, which will fix the EQ's frequency, type and Q while controlling the gain so as to enhance the vocal or instrumental performance 8 PEQs + 31 GEQs for each MAIN output channel 3 PEQs + 31 GEQs for each AUX output channel On each input channel, there's a 2^nd order HP filters, Noise Gate function, RMS Compressor and adjustable delay time For each MAIN and AUX output, there's HP/LP filter whose slope up to 24dB/Oct, RMS compressor, feedback eliminator and adjustable delay time In addition to Dynamic Filter, there's also up to 1024 taps FIR in MAIN output, with FIR coefficients generated from internal Wizard Tool or imported as .txt or .csv from the Third Party Application
Direct PC/Network Connection	Direct connection with PC with the Ethernet Connector on the front panel WIFI connection to PC interface software is available as well, to conduct real time monitor, setting and control More than one device connection is supported
