Introduction
The Empath 10" format mixer offers big-board features and studio quality sound. The mixer is feature packed, yet easy and intui-
tive to use. How did we pull it off? We asked the master — Grandmaster Flash is responsible for many of the important features and
control locations, even the name. "Empath" implies understanding, insight and feeling. When you use the mixer, you'll get it. The
Empath mixer is designed for professional applications: large club, broadcast, competition, remix, live sound. The Empath offers a
combination of features, compact size and quality presently unavailable at any price.
WEAR PARTS: This product contains the following wear parts subject to the ninety (90) day warranty period described on page
Warranty-1: Penny & Giles Fader Assembly (4).
