Alesis released a new product namely the MULTIMIX 10 WIRELESS10-Channel Rackmount Mixer with Bluetooth Wireless.

Read through to know how Alesis, based on their website, regard the MULTIMIX 10 WIRELESS.

"Convenient connections—plus a stereo Bluetooth channel—add true versatility.
The Alesis MultiMix 10 Wireless is redefining the rackmount mixer category. Compact and complete, the MultiMix 10 Wireless delivers ten-channel mixing in a neat 3U package that is perfect for smaller clubs and venues, houses of worship, as well as mobile/traveling systems. The MultiMix 10 Wireless benefits from an array of easily accessible front panel jacks that enhance the versatility and usefulness of this generously equipped mixer. Topping off the feature list is a channel dedicated to receiving the stereo playback from any Bluetooth device. The MultiMix 10 Wireless is a new breed of rackmount mixer.

                       
All Are Welcome
The MultiMix 10 Wireless provides a wealth of inputs to accommodate nearly any audio input. Channels 1-4 are ideal for vocals or acoustically mic’ed instruments, direct boxes, and more. Each provides an XLR mic input with available phantom power; a balanced 1/4" TRS line input, plus a TRS 1/4" insert jack for incorporating additional effects or working with a second mixer. Channels 5-8 have been set as stereo pairs, offering 1/4" left and right inputs. These channels are ideal for stereo sources such as a keyboard, electronic drum set, drum machine, external mixer, etc. Channels 7-8 also provide left and right RCA inputs.

Wireless Wonder
Stream a stereo audio signal from any Bluetooth device to Channels 9-10 of the MultiMix 10 Wireless. Single-button pairing keeps it simple. Now you can easily play music between sets, stream audio from a computer during a multimedia presentation, or even play a track from a patron’s smartphone for satisfying that “special request.” The articulating Bluetooth antenna delivers optimum reception.

Jack Attack 
An additional set of front panel jacks go above and beyond what most rack mixers offer to set your new MultiMix 10 Wireless mixer apart form the crowd in both convenience and functionality. No more snaking cables from front to back; no more reaching around and guessing; no more un-mounting the mixer to get at the jacks you need. 

To begin with, Channels 1 and 2 are equipped with XLR+1/4" combo inputs that override the rear jacks. Simply plug in a mic for making house announcements, adding a new source, patching in a sampler, or whatever you need. The stereo 1/8" external input allows instant access to the dedicated Bluetooth channel, providing a quick way to add in any stereo, handheld, or mobile device. Finally, the stereo 1/8" front panel output provides the master output signal—taken before the master fader—to deliver an efficient way to capture and record a live mix.

Maximum Mixing 
Using the MultiMix 10 Wireless is easy and intuitive. Each single and stereo-paired channel offers a trim knob, peak LED, and a smooth-travelling 60mm fader for attaining the best signal level. In addition, there is a two-band EQ and pan for shaping the sound and creating a great mix. There are two aux send knobs per channel for creating a separate monitor mix, using an external global effect, etc. Aux 1 is set to pre-fader and Aux 2 is post-fader for maximum versatility.

Dual multi-segment LED meters and a Master output fader allow you to easily monitor and control your levels. Left and right main outputs are equipped with balanced 1/4" TRS jacks—ideal for extended cable runs. The left and right monitor outs provide unbalanced 1/4" jacks. There is a separate headphone output on the front panel, with a dedicated volume control.

AKAI MPCX - The Next Generation of Standalone MPC

AKAI Professional released a new product, the MPCX, and people have been raging about it.

Read below to know more about what AKAI's website has to say about their new product, the MPCX, which they dubbed as the next generation of standalone MPC.

                                


"Alpha and Omega
The history of modern music is intrinsically linked to the Akai Professional MPC line. We’ve created machines that have spawned new genres and advanced existing ones. Countless instruments have attempted to replicate the design, workflow and celebrated swing of the Music Production Center. In short, the MPC is a legend maker.

In creating the new MPC X, we’ve learned lessons from every MPC that preceded it to engineer a production centerpiece truly fit to be the Music Production Center of the future.

The Beast, Unleashed
The X is a standalone MPC featuring a beautiful, full color, adjustable 10.1” multi-touch screen, 16 amazingly responsive, velocity- and pressure-sensitive RGB pads and 16 gigs of internal storage. To make it a truly untethered, computer-free experience, the X also features two USB slots that can be used for MIDI controller connectivity.Powering the X is our stellar MPC 2.0 Software, which runs natively in standalone mode. 

For more expressive performances, there are 16 touch-sensitive 360-degree assignable pots—perfect for precisely automating individual QLink parameters. Above each of those QLink pots is a high-resolution OLED display, detailing info for the individual parameter.

To Plug or Not to Plug
Whether you prefer to go computer-free or not, it can’t be denied that there are some fantastic sounding VST instruments and effects out there. For those times when you need your favorite plug-ins, the MPC X effortlessly goes from formidable standalone to high-powered MIDI controller, explicitly designed to run the feature-rich MPC Software 2.0 in your favorite DAW. A number of new features added to 2.0 include: Audio track recording, improved time warp, enhanced Q-Link control, audio and MIDI drag and drop—all appearing on a new graphical interface.

Infinite Sounds, Unlimited Inspiration
The MPC has a well-earned reputation for sounds that hit hard and sound great, right out of the box. The X builds on that reputation. Pre-installed with 10 gigs of world-class sounds, The Vault 2.0 features samples and kits from top-notch sound design companies including CAPSUN ProAudio, MVP Loops, CR2 Records, as well as our own. Want to incorporate your own samples without tethering to a computer? The X features a 2.5” SATA drive connector providing additional storage via installation of a fixed hard drive – SSD or HDD (sold separately). Additionally, sounds can be accessed and added to the library using the built-in SD Card slot or the USB thumb drive. You can also record directly to all the aforementioned storage locations.

                                          


Above and Beyond
The MPC X has a number of additional features that make it the most powerful standalone music production tool to date. The X has a high quality audio interface engineered for recording, sampling and transmitting pristine sound. The back panel is equipped with 2 XLR + 1/4” TRS inputs for recording microphones - including those needing 48V phantom power. 

There are two additional 1/4” TRS line inputs on the back panel and the front panel also features two more 1/4” line inputs. Onboard CV/Gate outputs enable the analog control of modular gear such as classic synths and drum machines. For vinyl junkies, we include two RCA phono inputs with RIAA preamp to ensure the right levels are coming into the X from your turntable. The joy of sampling vinyl is at the core of what made the classic MPC workflow legendary. We’re staying true to our roots while simultaneously improving the sound and stability of the sampling process.


The MPC X is the pinnacle of lengthy research and development, detailed feedback from our passionate user base and the merging of the best technologies from across our product line.


We proudly present the Music Production Center that embodies the best of past, present and future beat-oriented production machines. The MPC X will be the centerpiece of studios worldwide—and yours — for years to come."

AKG C636 WL1 Master Reference Condenser Vocal Mic Head


Read through below to know what AKG has to say regarding their C636 WL1 Master Reference Condenser Vocal Mic Head based on their website.




AKG dares you to be aggressive because their C636 WL1 Master Reference Condenser Vocal Mic Head can surely take it.

"If you’ve ever tried to bring a studio mic on stage, you know they’re too delicate to stand up to the task. The C636 mic’s proprietary double shock suspension system greatly reduces handling noise, even during the most energetic on-stage performances. Its capsule sits on a highly absorbent rubber bearing, eliminating any structure-based noise, while an adjustable balancing network cancels vibrations over a wide frequency range. In addition, a substantial brass layer below the capsule serves as a counterweight that increases stability and delivers cleaner acoustics."

The AKG C636 WL1 Master Reference Condenser Vocal Mic Head also has new approach to broad-spectrum feedback rejection

This means that "the C636 essentially eliminates feedback by combining a uniform cardioid polar pattern throughout the entire frequency spectrum with a specially designed suspension and grille for the capsule. This unique approach to housing the capsule avoids unwanted sound reflections on the back of the capsule from stage sound sources, the most common cause of feedback in other microphones."

The AKG C636 WL1 Master Reference Condenser Vocal Mic Head also has a triple pop noise protection feature.

"When AKG artists told us that “pops are the enemy,” we listened and incorporated a multi-layer protection system to provide singers with clear, plosive-free vocal performances. The protection system spares no expense and consists of the grille, a foam layer behind the grille and a magnetically attached computer-modeled mesh layer on top of the capsule. This triple-layer protection system is virtually unique to AKG and is not found in any microphone remotely near this price range."

It is also worthy nothing that for 70 years, AKG has pioneered the art of premium studio-quality sound and understood that what is inside that counts to be able to deliver this type of quality sound from their products. 

Other features include having a rugged cocnstruction, made of 24-carat gold-plated capsule, uniform cardloid pattern,propirietary double shock suspension system, multilayer pop noise protection.
