All of the advantages of a digital mixer in a compact unit. The new EDIROL M series, delivering high-quality mixing environments.
The true role of an audio mixer is to faithfully capture sound and allow you to make it even better. The features of the EDIROL M series are aimed at fulfilling two goals: to provide intuitive operation that lets even the beginner perform serious mixing, and to provide high audio quality and full functionality to satisfy the professional. Completely digital From audio input to audio output, all processing is fully digital, with 24-bit 96 kHz support for ultra-high quality.
In order to bring out the full potential of an instrument, quality is demanded of an audio mixer. It must reproduce the full range of frequencies from low to high without faltering, and needs dynamic range that can express everything from a subtle whisper to a powerful roar. The M-16DX/M-10DX use cuttingedge digital technology to fulfill these exacting requirements. We have also included numerous original ideas derived from Roland/ EDIROL’s years of experience in making audio mixers.
24-bit 96 kHz support for mixes of astounding realism A completely new concept, separating I/O from controls The M-16DX is a two-piece system consisting of the Mix controller (control desk) you use for mixing, and the I/O module (connector box) to which you connect your mics, instruments, and recording equipment.
Are the speakers you normally listen to at home really telling you the truth? In many cases, the answer is “no.” Everybody wants to listen to music as you like it to sound. But when you’re mixing, it’s very important for monitoring to be accurate, so that you’re hearing the sound as it really is. By using the Room Acoustic Auto Control system built into the M16DX/M-10DX, you’ll be able to monitor your sound accurately simply by pressing a button.
Using curves other than FLAT to take advantage of the Room Acoustic Auto Control Three simple steps to obtaining a flat response STEP1 Set your monitor speakers to the desired playback volume, and then press the [ROOM ACOUSTIC AUTO CONTROL] button. [ROOM ACOUSTIC AUTO CONTROL] button STEP2 Select the [FLAT1] response curve. As the target response curves for compensation, you can choose from three types: FLAT, BUMPY, or WARMY. You can also create variations of these and save them.
High-quality audio. Full digital processing. Sophisticated functionality. These professional specifications sought by everyone are no longer limited to advanced practitioners. Even if you’re using a digital mixer for the first time, you deserve to be able to control your sound intuitively and understandably. As a result of our pursuit of this goal, we’ve succeeded in joining the friendly usability of an analog mixer with the sophisticated functionality of digital processing.
Graphic LCD display with superb viewability to support detailed sound-creation The M-16DX/M-10DX feature a 122 x 32 pixel backlit graphical LCD display that’s clearly visible even on a dark stage. Even beginners will be able to easily check the input levels or operate the effects. When you control the EQ, the EQ curve will automatically appear in the display when you turn a knob, providing a visual indication of the sonic response as you make adjustments.
Multitrack recording using your PC Home recording system The M-series is the ideal choice for home studio recording using DAW software such as SONAR. In particular, the M-16DX has a separate I/O module and Mix controller, making it easy to reconnect your mic or instrument cables during the multi-track recording process, and letting you operate the Mix controller on an uncluttered desktop.
Recording a band in a single pass Studio recording system The M-16DX’s superb potential will shine particularly when you’re recording vocals or drums via mics in the studio. Phantompowered channels 1–4 provide high-quality mic preamps, so you can make serious recordings with professional mics. By taking advantage of the headphone/control room, ALT, and AUX bus outputs, you can use the variety of outputs for recording or monitoring.
Sub-mixer for a live stage performance Live mixing system Simple, yet multi-functional and highly mobile, the M-10DX is an ideal choice as a sub-mixer used for combining the outputs of your synthesizer, sound modules, and sequencer during a live performance. The M-10DX is also a great tool for creating unusual setups that might be difficult to manage in a live situation.
Expanding the inputs of your audio interface DAW recording system Audio player The M-10MX is an analog mixer that packs analog inputs and digital output into a compact body. You can use it as an input expansion tool for EDIROL’s FA and UA series of audio interfaces, or on its own as a line mixer. Operation is simple and does not require specialized knowledge, making it a flexible solution for a variety of needs ranging from PC-less audio editing to a submixer for a DAW recording system.
A high-level fusion of digital audio quality and analog operability A new form of digital mixer featuring a separate system. M-16DX Mix Controller M-16DX I/O Module Separate system with MIX controller and I/O module Full-digital processing at 24-bit 96 kHz quality with analog-like operability This system separates the MIX controller containing the mixing controls and the I/O module to which your instruments are connected.
The advantages of a digital mixer in a compact package. An all-in-one model with excellent mobility. Rich functionality that inherits the M-16DX’s basic features The M-10DX is an all-in-one digital mixer that provides the major functionality of the M-16DX, such as the Room Acoustic Auto Control function, the graphical LCD display, and effect processors. Versatile input jacks to meet the needs of any situation Ten input channels are provided, and Channels 1/2 have phantom-powered mic input jacks.
