6-, 8- and 12-Input Mixers
Looking for a simple, easy to use mixer that delivers an
exceptional audio performance? The Spirit E Series is here. For
recording, live, install or broadcast use there’s a Spirit E Series
mixer for you.
The emphasis with the Spirit E Series is an easy to understand
control surface uncluttered by unnecessary facilities. Surface
mount technology is used throughout, using close-tolerance
components for high accuracy and repeatable settings for EQ
and gain controls. The mic amp features high-resolution
adjustment over a wide gain range of 55dB, and
provides a stunning +22dB headroom through the
console. The E Series is available in 4 standard models:
6, 8 and 12 mono inputs (each model featuring two stereo
inputs) and the unique ES. The ES caters for set-ups with
multiple stereo sources that require simultaneous connection,
such as keyboards, samplers and computers, and has 10
full-function stereo inputs as well as four mono inputs
(for microphones and other mono sources). Two of
these stereo inputs are equipped with RIAA - equalized
inputs on RCA Phono connectors so that record turntables can
be plugged straight into the mixer for DJ music production.
The ES is ideal for touring keyboard players as a submixer.
