Harbinger LX8 8-Channel Analog Mixer With Bluetooth, FX and USB Audio

Description

The Harbinger LX8 is a versatile and compact 8-channel mixer for live sound, home recording and content creators. The LX8 includes Bluetooth audio input, a built-in 2×2 USB audio interface, cross-platform recording software and eight flexible 24-bit Multi-Core FX Engine programs. Also onboard are two low-noise, high-headroom mic preamps, tone-preserving high-impedance guitar inputs and sound-optimizing software for ideally recording guitar amps, multi-FX or preamp pedals.

The two carefully engineered microphone preamps give you both clean, accurate sound and ample gain-boosting range (+63dB max), while phantom power ensures you can use condenser microphones, which are a recording studio standard. An integrated 2×2 USB audio interface with zero-latency hardware monitoring provides a simple plug-and-play connection to a computer, while the included TRAKTION Waveform OEM cross-platform multi-track recording software ensures you can hit the ground running, right out of the box. Guitarists, take note: the included Torpedo Wall of Sound software lets you get superior sound from electric guitars recorded with amp simulation plug-ins or achieve in-the-studio realism when you record from multi-FX, amp heads with load boxes, or preamp pedals.

Meanwhile, the high-impedance (Hi-Z) instrument input switch lets you connect an acoustic guitar, bass or electric guitar without losing any tone or sound quality. The Bluetooth and mobile device audio inputs even have a dedicated level control with solo function, perfect when using a mobile device for break music at a gig, or when you quickly want to hear a reference track through your main speakers. And the MIX-MINUS button lets you listen to USB playback in your headphones without sending it to the main mix, which is essential when recording overdubs to computer. LX8 also lets you set separate FX levels for channels 1 and 2, adjust the sound of any of the eight available 24-bit Multi-Core FX Engine programs, and adjust stereo placement of all main input channels.

Equipped with eight total input channels (to handle up to six sources at once), XLR stereo main outs, 1/4” stereo headphone out, 1/8” stereo record output and high-visibility level metering, LX8 is ready to go wherever your music takes you.
