About the MultiMix-8FX

The MultiMix-8FX is the latest in the large family of Alesis audio
mixers. We've come a long way since the 1622 mixer we first built
in 1989. Since that time audio technology has grown in leaps and
bounds, pushing up quality and driving down prices. Only a few
years ago, you wouldn't have been able to buy a mixer this
powerful for such an affordable price. Just take a look at the key
features listed below, and you'll see that you have just made an
incredible addition to your home studio or live setup.
The MultiMix-8FX gives you just about everything you need to
create polished, professional-sounding mixes When designing this
unit, our goal was to give you as much control over your mixes as
possible without requiring a wealth of extra equipment. That's why
we added tools like the digital effects processor and the mic
preamps. And with a multitude of ways in which to connect other
equipment and instruments, the MultiMix-8FX offers endless
possibilities.
