Mackie D8B Digital Mixing Console
From the moment the D8B was introduced, it took its place as the
leading Digital Audio Mixing Console for the professional recording
industry. What separates the Digital 8•Bus from other digital
mixers is its powerful software and intuitive interface. Now with
Mackie Realtime OS Version 3.0, the console is better than ever. It's
designed to incorporate outside plug-ins, more sophisticated patching
and routing, advanced surround sound features, and much more. Version
3.0 makes the Digital 8•Bus a serious production tool that rivals
digital consoles and DAWs costing as much as $500,000 but at a price
that fits everyone's budget.
