Phantom Power
All high-performance mic preamps feature switchable phantom power for studio condenser microphones. A single switch turns phantom power on or off for all channels.

Smooth, "musical-response" 3-band equalizers are provided on the input channels. All mono microphone input channels also feature a switchable high-pass filter that can be used to cut out unwanted low-frequency noise.

Four Buses (Stereo and Group)

Stereo and group bus assign switches are located above each channel fader.
