DISC Allen and Heath XB-10 Compact Broadcast Mixer

Full Description

USB Audio Flexibility

The XB-10 features an integrated full duplex USB soundcard that offers many useful routing options. This allows you to get audio to and from your computer and the mixer, making it ideal for recording and broadcast applications.

MusiQ

The XB-10 features a highly responsive, swept mid frequency EQ design that allows you to shape your tone. They utilise MusiQ with optimised slope for a variety of sources.

Output Limiter

The XB-10 features a variable limiter which helps to keep levels below a pre-defined level. This ensures that your levels don't get too high. There is also back panel option switches that allow the limiter to be bypassed if you wish. The trim pot can be used to vary the threshold. It also has an LED on the front panel that indicates when the limiter is being triggered.

Compact Compressor

The ComPACT compressor is integrated on each of the mic channels. ComPACT (Adaptive Compression Technology) is a program-dependent audio leveler that combines both downward and upward compression with peak limiting to keep a smooth signal level. The low level signals are boosted, mid-level signals are slightly compressed with a soft knee response, and the high levels are limited.
