Introduction The 1604-VLZ PRO is the latest update of our CR1604-VLZ, incorporating our new ultra-high quality XDR™ (Extended Dynamic Range) mic preamps with the best RFI rejection of any compact mixer design on the market and maximum freedom from ground loops. Like all Mackie mixers, the 1604-VLZ PRO is designed for rugged, 24-hour-a-day use. It is a supremely flexible mixer, not just because of its multiple input/output configurations, but because of its true 4-bus architecture, 6 aux sends (with 3-4/5-6 shift switch), and extensive routing capabilities. No matter what the application, the 1604-VLZ PRO can be configured for optimal use. As a tabletop mixer, input/output jacks can be positioned at the rear of the unit, or with the optional RotoPod Kit (RP1604-VLZ), positioned on the same plane as the controls. Placed in a rack system, the 1604-VLZ PRO can be set so that jacks are facing front (using the RotoPod kit) or facing the rear to keep wandering hands from playing with cords. Whether used in a permanent installation, or as a portable mixer, the 1604-VLZ PRO is completely at home. Built like a tank, the 1604-VLZ PRO is a team player that can stand up to vigorous use, day in and day out, any place it is installed. Its sturdy-yetlight steel monocoque construction houses rugged, double-sided through-hole-plated fiberglass circuit boards, and 60mm faders with ultra-tight lip seals for keeping out dust and other contaminants. Impact-resistant knobs are mounted so they "ride" just above the steel chassis - they absorb impact without trouble. They're designed to last, too, thanks to co-molded potentiometers that don't get brittle and crack up.
