The Hear Technologies Mix Back Mixer is a 16-channel monitor mixer with two ADAT optical and two HearBus outputs. It features two stereo outputs and twelve mono outputs. There are sixteen high quality Mic/Line inputs with passive split. A perfect companion to Hear Technologies Hear Back personal monitor system. A talkback mic preamp permits talking to any mono output, master outputs and the intercom output. Included is a UV LED gooseneck lamp that makes the knob pointers and silkscreen on the front of Hear Technologies Mix Back glow-in-the-dark! 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.

    Now that works!
    Russell Miescke

    I am extremely happy with the Mix Back Mixer. It does exactly what it is supposed to do, and more. I am using it purely as a monitor mixer both for the wedges and in-ear monitors. Front End Audio delivered it on time with absolutely no hassle. No more yelling at the sound man to put more of me in the monitor.

    Thank You!
    William Anderson

    I recently purchased this mixer and I'm very happy with everything it does. It's very quiet and the EQ on each channel works so well that I really don't need to even use my 31 bands on each mix. My old eyes could maybe use the knobs color coded for each mix, but other then that it's excellent! I give it five stars!
