With the Remote Control, the talkback mic preamp is assignable to stereo masters 1 and 2, mono outputs 1 - 12, and the balanced intercom/slate output. The Basics of Hear Technologies Mix Back Mixer include 16-input mixer with analog and digital outputs, high-quality mic/line inputs with inserts, high-pass filter and 4-band EQ, and master section with effects returns, aux return with level control, and talkback mic preamp.

16-Input Mixer with Analog and Digital Outputs
It's easy to configure the perfect monitor mix setup with the Hear Technologies Mix Back. Assign any of the 16 inputs to one of 12 mono outputs and two stereo mix outputs to route signal to individual monitor stations. In addition, the Hear Technologies Mix Back includes two ADAT optical outputs for digital connections, plus two HearBus outs for connection to other Hear Technologies gear.

High-Quality Mic/Line Inputs with Inserts, High-Pass Filter and 4-Band EQ
The Hear Technologies Mix Back's input section features 16 high-quality mic/line inputs (with passive splitters). Each input features a channel insert, a signal/clip LED, a 100Hz high-pass filter, and an independent gain control. In addition, the Hear Technologies Mix Back input channels each have 4-band EQ with separate controls for sweep and boost/cut on the mid bands.

Master Section
The Hear Technologies Mix Back master section offers two stereo and 12 mono TRS outputs with switch-selectable meter/headphone monitoring. Two stereo TRS balanced effect returns are augmented by switch-assignable FX1/FX2 returns to the 12 mono masters. A stereo aux return with level controls can be routed to both stereo busses - great for a FOH mix or the studio "two mix." The Hear Technologies Mix Back's talkback mic preamp is assignable to stereo masters 1 & 2, mono outputs 1-12, and the balanced Intercom/slate output. A 16-button talkback remote connects using standard CAT5e cable. In addition, the Hear Technologies Mix Back provides 16 channels of ADAT and HearBus output.

Remote Control
The Hear Technologies Mix Back Remote is a 16-button remote control that routes the talkback microphone signal to all master outputs and to the balanced talkback output (COM). It connects to the Mix Back Monitor Mixer using standard CAT5e cable.
