Onyx 1220iThe Onyx 1220i features four full mono mic/line channels (each with 3-band Perkins EQ and mid-frequency sweep), four stereo channels (each with 3-band Perkins EQ), two aux sends on all channels with pre/post capability and a powerful master section.

The Onyx 1220i is equipped with 16x2 FireWire capability, allowing all channels, aux sends and main L/R to be routed to any desired DAW, including Pro Tools® 9 and M-Powered™ 8. The FireWire output from the computer may be brought back straight into a channel strip for easy mix integration. FireWire aggregation allows multiple Onyx 1220i mixers to be connected.

Each mono channel has an Onyx mic preamp, phantom power, an input Gain control with 60 dB of gain, a sharp 18 dB/octave, 75 Hz Low Cut filter, Pan, Mute, Solo, a 60mm fader and a Channel Insert jack for connecting an external processor.

There are built-in DIs on the first two channels for direct connection of guitars or bass and a dedicated talkback section for easy communication with band members on stage or during recording sessions.

Other features include a stereo tape input and output, a 1/4-inch stereo headphone jack, stereo 12-segment LED meters and XLR and TRS stereo output jacks.

The Control Room/Phones section has its own level control, outputs and input matrix for selecting any combination of Main Mix, Tape In and Alt 3-4.

The Onyx 1220i is compact and rack-mountable. Plus, it’s a Mackie which means it is “Built-Like-A-Tank” and will survive years of abuse.

APPLICATIONSLive sound mixing, houses of worship, clubs, gymnasiums, banquet halls, conference rooms, boardrooms, multitrack studio and field recording, video post-production, multimedia applications, broadcast, and many, many more.
