The A-16II Personal
Mixer is a 16-
channel stereo digital mixer designed to allow performers to create custom monitor mixes on
stage or in the studio. The
stereo output on the A-16II can drive in-ear
monitors (IEMs) or
headphones. Its intuitive
interface lets a performer quickly modify a mix without distracting from the primary job at hand-performing live or in the studio.
A-16II mixers are known as the industry standard worldwide, and for good reasons: they're robust, simple to use, and
sound great. Just connect an A-16II to an
analog input module or
digital console card to start a system. It's that easy.
Designed for use in live performance or in the studio, the A-16II Personal
Mixer gives each performer control over
channel volume, grouping,
pan,
stereo spread, as well as
master volume and tone. Every Personal
Mixer in a system can create a unique monitor mix for a performer. Users can save and recall up to sixteen custom mixes as presets in their Personal
Mixer.
Stereo Output for Wired or Wireless IEMsThe
TRS stereo output from the A-16II can be used to drive wired or wireless in-ear
monitors (IEMs),
headphones, powered floor wedges, an
amplifier, or spot
monitors.
The A-16II Personal
Mixer is fully compatible with all Pro16 Series products, including Aviom's Y1 A-Net card for Yamaha
digital mixing consoles. Support for the industry standard Aviom monitor
mixing is available in the form of
console interface cards from an ever- increasing list of
digital console manufacturers (including Avid (Digidesign), DiGiCo, Soundcraft, Innovason, Tascam). Many other
digital console manufacturers offer a Pro16 A-Net output option.
Power Over Cat-5Personal Mixers can be daisy chained or connected in parallel using an A-Net Distributor. Parallel connections also allow
DC power to be supplied to the mixers over the Cat-5e cable. The A-16II supports Cat-5e cable runs of up to 500 feet (150 meters) between devices, and there is no practiacal limit to the number of personal mixers in a system.
Note: The A-16II Personal
Mixer does not ship with a power supply since most system configurations include an A-Net Distributor. Order the
PS-120 if you need an external power supply.
CompatibilityAll Pro16 Personal Mixers, including the A-16II,
A-16R, and
A360, can be used in any combination when creating a personal
mixing system.
Adding an ASI A-Net Systems
Interface to a Pro64 network allows a Personal
Mixer to output any 16 channels from a Pro64
digital snake or
audio network.
