Roland is proud to announce the
company is now shipping the new EDIROL M-16DX Digital Mixer. Together
with powerful effects onboard, an intelligent Room Acoustic Control
function, and loads of digital and analog connectivity, the M-16DX

23 ft/7 meter cable (model name: DXC-7), Roland adds portable
convenience to the sweet mix of this new mixer's features.

allows users to move the console away from the processor to give them
the flexibility to control the mix from a convenient location, away
from the many cables that may be plugged into the I/O processor.
Anyone wishing to streamline their studio, or chase the sweet spot
with mixer in hand, can benefit from this simple option. Live bands,
keyboard players, drummers, project studio engineers, audio/video
production facilities, and more will appreciate the convenience and
the many features that this full digital mixer offers."

engine that provides a transparent, noiseless mixing foundation.
