NEXT LEVEL SOUND AND VERSATILITY
If there’s one thing Mackie engineers can do in their sleep, it’s design a mixer that sounds great, is easy to use, and is packed with flexible features. Sounds pretty good right? So if you mix live sound, record in your home studio, or live stream, this is the heart of your audio.
CLASSIC SOUND, MODERN PERFORMANCE
Legendary Onyx mic preamps and Perkins “British Style” EQ alongside premium
analog circuitry deliver professional studio-quality sound and ultra-low noise.
A COMPLETE MULTI-TRACK RECORDING SOLUTION
Record and playback to and from your Mac/PC via USB or recording your
main mix directly to an SD card.
UNMATCHED CONTROL AND FLEXIBILITY
Every Onyx model is equipped with Studio Command, a full-color display
and single knob interface for managing built-in FX and SD card file
browsing/recording/playback.
STUDIO COMMAND
Easy navigation of FX parameters, onboard SD recording and playback
Visually browse files on the SD card via the built-in display
Dedicated physical buttons for Previous, Next, Record, and Play/Pause
Store up to 6 user FX presets for easy recall
A LIGHT IN THE DARK
Onyx Series mixers feature bright, easy to read buttons that shine bright in the darkest places so you will always know whats going on with your mix. On top of that, the full-color display of Studio Command makes it easy to adjust effects and SD card recording/playback.
PERKINS EQ
To create the Perkins EQ, Cal Perkins started with the Wien Bridge circuit topology – a very musical design inspired by the hallowed “British” desks of the 60s and 70s. This design essentially trades boost/cut capability for a wider, highly musical Q filter. After a mind-numbing amount of math, Cal was able to specify capacitor and resistor values that would give the EQ an extra 6dB of control (±15 dB) without excessively narrowing the “Q” or bandwidth of the filters. It’s what we call a win win.
