Introducing the MTX3 Features • A signal processor suitable for small or mid-sized installed systems The MTX3 is a signal processor suitable for small or midsized systems such as retail establishments or banquet halls. In addition to a 26 ch. x 8 ch. matrix mixer, it provides 3-band parametric EQ, compressor/gate, auto gain control, eight priority duckers, and four feedback suppressors. For the output stages, it provides numerous high-performance high-quality processors, such as 4-band parametric EQ, delay, and speaker processor. • Newly-developed "YDIF" digital audio transmission format "YDIF" is a digital audio transmission format that uses Ethernet cable to send and receive up to 16 channels of audio and word clock.
