This item is B-stock purchased from the manufacturer. It may have minor scuffs or blemishes but is in perfect working condition and comes with full manufacturer warranty.
The Mackie Bus series was designed to eliminate the last barrier between you and audio creativity -- the B328 is capable of sound quality equal to or better than that of $100,000 consoles. B328 consoles have recorded more platinum albums and major motion picture soundtracks than any other mixer in their class -- they set the standard for affordable 8-bus consoles.
Excellent for project studios and digital multi-track recording, when combined with digital multitrack or hard disk recording systems, a Mackie B328 console can create not just major label CDs, but major motion picture soundtracks and network quality commercials.
Features include low-noise/high-headroom mic preamps on every channel, as well as channel inserts and direct outs. In the channel strip you'll find Mackie's truly musical EQ -- with Hi and Lo shelving EQ, parametric Hi-Mid, and sweepable Low-Mid EQ -- as well as their Low Cut Filter, which allows you to eliminate mic thumps and room rumble from your mix, and use your EQ for music and vocals.
