ance-independent-frequency response remains the same whether the mic preamp is presented with an extremely high or low-impedance load. Additionally, mic channels (1 through 8, 9/10, & 11/12) have their own switchable low cut filter (18dB/octave @ 75Hz), so mic thumps, room rumble and stage mishaps are left out of the mix without diminishing the audible bass frequency range. Four buses add mixing flexibility. Channels can be assigned to buses 1-2, 3-4 and/or Main Mix L/R, and the 4 subs can be assigned to left and/or right main mix. A Control Room/Phones source matrix lets you route any combination of tape, subs 1-2, 3-4, main mix or Aux 4 to headphones, control room outputs, and meters. This enables you to monitor 2-track tape output or route a click/cue track to phones, create special phones or broadcast mixes via the subs, or create an extra stereo mix (with its own gain control) for another zone, like a cry room, lobby, or other such place. The 1642-VLZ PRO's mono main out also has its own level control, so a mono mix can be sent to another zone and adjusted accordingly. The mixer has four aux sends per channel strip with Aux Sends 1 & 2 switchable pre- or post-fader and Aux Sends 3 & 4 post-fader. Solo has its own volume control and is switchable from AFL (In-Place) to PFL. Level setting is easy in PFL, especially when used in conjunction with the mixer's level set LED and marker (near the 12-segment stereo LED ladder). Check a channel's stereo placement by switching to AFL; the 1642-VLZ PRO's constant-loudness pan pots maintain a consistent loudness across the stereo horizon. Log-taper 60mm faders deliver a consistent fade throughout the fader's throw, so choppy fadeins and fade-outs are history. These faders have a co-polymer membrane that provides a continuously sealed barrier against dust and liquids without interfering with fader travel. Similarly, the fader's long-wearing contact material (first designed for use in exterior automotive sensors) means longer fader life and improved resistance to the elements. The 1642-VLZ PRO is designed for continuous, hassle-free use in any application or installation where extra line-level inputs are useful. And it's packed with useful features and practical routing capabilities. Simply stated, this mixer offers features, peace of mind and excellent performance at an extremely affordable price. And it's a Mackie! 5
