PreSonus RM32AI Rack-Mount Software Controlled Digital Mixer

Full Description

The unique software designed by PreSonus provides a fully interactive virtual mixing desk surface in which you can control the RM32AI from your PC, Mac or iPad via wireless or Ethernet connection. Incorporating all the necessities expected from a mixing console such as faders, solo/mute buttons, panning, eq, fx, 48V phantom power, mute groups, compression and gates the RM32AI software also provides a lot more useful features such as the ability to save user presets, real time audio graphic representation, talk back, full graphic eq, delay, reverb and an extremely user friendly interactive experience.

Due to vast amounts of the processing being done through software the PreSonus RM32AI does not have an on board fan which allows it to be used in the studio via its firewire connection port as an extremely powerful audio interface allowing you to record anything from drums to vocals with its powerful XMAX class A preamps.
