The less twisting, the less potential service problems. Channel strip circuitry is located on 8-channel

Expanders have their own internal mix amps so the main board only "sees" one extra channel per expansion console. Trick BUS SOLO switches send oddnumbered buses to the left

Since its
introduction, Mackie
Designs’ 8•Bus Series con-
soles have proven that
excellent sonic quality,
practical features and ex-
treme durability needn't
mandate a premium price.
In hundreds of SR and
recording installations, the
32•8, 24•8 and 16•8 deliver
performance previously
only found in consoles
costing far more.
Instead of offering
dozens of mix-and-match
input and output module
options, we have put more
of what most users need
into a single console de-
sign — enabling us to make
them in quantities which
can bring costs down.
All three 8•Bus consoles
and the 24•E expander offer
extensive monitoring, 4-band
EQ, accurate, logarithmic
taper faders and expansive,
forgiving headroom. Equally
as important, they are built
to withstand the rigors of the
environment and the casual,
untrained user. 8•Bus con-
soles have withstood
hundreds of thousands of

A complete system
The 8•Bus console line
consists of three in-line
consoles, the 32x8x2 32•8,
the 24x8x2 24•8 and the
16x8x2 16•8.
The 24•8 and 32•8 are
expandable with Mackie's
24•E Expander console. The
24•E consists of 24 input
channels and tape returns.
It connects to the 32•8 or
24•8 via a proprietary cable.
Multiple 24•E expanders
may be daisy chained to
provide 128 or more total
input channels. The 24•E's
outputs are pre-mixed in
the expander to reduce line
noise, thermal noise and to
maintain sonic quality at
the main console.
All three consoles and
the 24•E are shipped with
Mackie's rugged 220-watt
triple-regulated power
supply. Meter bridges and
