Mackie DL16SE 16-channel Rackmount Digital Mixer

Straightforward Wireless Mixing

Put a Mackie DL16SE in your rack, fire up your tablet, and you can mix from anywhere using Mackie’s Master Fader SE control app. And despite the wireless convenience, you’ll make zero sonic sacrifices, courtesy of 16 great-sounding Onyx+ preamps and onboard digital effects. The DL16SE also doubles as a high-quality 16-in/16-out USB interface, so you can record the show at the venue and then take it to the studio for mixdown. You can also play back a full multitrack recording for a virtual soundcheck. Moreover, the DL16SE supports up to 20 tablets at once, so multiple engineers can work from one mixer. And, thanks to instant recall of every setting, City Music users have discovered setup is a snap. No matter where you’re mixing from, the DL16SE gets you into your mix like never before.

Control everything from anywhere

Leave that bulky snake at home! Because you can control the Mackie DL16SE with your tablet, you can place it anywhere. Even if the DL16SE is onstage, you can walk around the venue to fine-tune your mix. It’s a great way to ensure optimal sound quality for every member of your audience. And because the DL16SE supports up to 20 tablets at once, multiple engineers can work from one DL16SE. You can even set up personal mixes for each performer that are tweakable via any iOS device. Back in the day, you would have needed miles of cable and a pile of submixers to pull off this much signal routing. But with the DL16SE in your rack, all you need is a router, a tablet, and your fingers!
