FEATURES

  • Livemix two mixes in one personal mxer

    2 Mixes in One Box

    Two performers can share a personal mixer to decrease cost and clutter. Each side (A and B) has its own discrete mix and separate headphone amplifier. This isn’t just a built in splitter, this is two totally separate mixers in one unit!

  • Livemix personal monitor system with 24 channels of audio

    24 Channels + 4 Accessory Channels

    While most personal mixers give you 16 total mixable channels, Livemix offers 24 plus additional accessory channels. With Stereo Pairs and built-in Groups, it’s easy to build true stereo pairs and multi-channel groups.

  • Livemix personal monitor system - simple to use

    Simple To Use

    Making a personal mix is much easier when you can “turn up Sasha” or “turn down the bass” and not try to remember who is on what channel. With a color LCD touchscreen with custom names, scribble strips and guessing is a thing of the past. Dedicated knobs for adjustments, your own channel group and master volume make mixing simple and intuitive.

  • Livemix personal mixer Crystal clear headphone amplifier

    Crystal Clear Headphone Amplifier

    The headphone amplifier on Livemix will drive nearly any impedance and give you incredible space and tonal separation. This makes creating a personal mix easier as channels on other systems can tend to “smear” or “get muddy”.

  • Livemix built-in effects on each channel and master icon

    EQ, HPF, & Dynamics on Every Channel

    Effects presets for each instrument type help make mix setup simple. You can also bypass the presets and edit each effect directly. The effects in Livemix are global so that you only have to set them up once and everyone gets an incredible sounding personal mix.

  • Livemix accessory channels icon

    Built-in Accessory Channels

    In addition to the 24 input channels, Livemix boasts 4 accessory channels. Built-in ambient mics helps musicians locate themselves on stage when using in-ear monitors. The intercom allows team communication and the auxiliary input can connect to a media player for practicing songs or for tracks. The built-in metronome helps everyone stay on time.

  • Powershape with advanced remote control options

    Remote Mixing and Intercom

    MirrorMix remote mixing lets anyone get help when they need it. Any personal mixer can audition and mix any other mix. Push out a good starter mix to all mixers at once with Global MirrorMix. In MirrorMix mode, the built-in intercom is direct to the target mixer for easy confirmation and communication.

Yes you can, and it it incredible simple. Select the channel within the group that you wish to adjust. A white border will outline the channel to indicate it is selected. LONG PRESS the ADJUST knob to temporarily remove the channel from the group. The white outline of the selected channel will flash while the channel is temporarily out of the goup.  Use the ADJUST knob to adjust the volume of the channel and press the ADJUST knob to return the channel to the group.

You can connect two CS-SOLO units to a single port on the MIX-16 or MIX-32. The first mixer is the blue “A MIX” while the second unit will be the red “B MIX”. Power and audio is supplied to the second CS-SOLO over a network cable connected to the CS-SOLO THRU port. The CS-DUO must be connected directly to the MIX-16 or MIX-32.

The CS-DUO has the abiblity to link both the A and B Mixes. Select the A mix, PRESS and HOLD both Master Volume knobs at the same time. Confirm that you want to group the controls. At this point both sets of control knobs will control the mix. Repeat these steps to unlink the mixes.

The Auxiliary input is designed for an amplified signal such as what is output from a smartphone headphone output. In order to use a microphone with the Aux input, it would need to be used with a microphone preamplifier before the signal gets to the Livemix Aux in.

But as luck would have it, we make just such a device. The LM-MICPRE is a mic preamp that allows you to use a standard dynamic mic as the intercom mic. Check it out here.

Livemix provides 5 multi-channel groups and the ability to group stereo pairs. If you need to send a subgroup to the Livemix system outside of those groups, you will need to subgroup them on the console and then publish that group to the Dante network.

While Livemix Data is transmitted over standard network cables, it is not in a format that a network can read. DO NOT use splitters, couplers, or hubs between any CS-SOLO or CS-DUO and the MIX-16/MIX-32. DO NOT connect a CS-SOLO or CS-DUO into an ethernet network. This could cause damage to the personal mixer and will void the warranty.

Shielded cable is required for connecting both the AD-24 and the DA-816 to the MIX-16 or MIX-32. Shielded cable is not required for connecting a CS-SOLO or CS-DUO to the MIX-16/32 or connecting the LM-DANTE card to the Dante network. However, shielded is recommended.

At this time any single Livemix channel is a mono channel.  However, Livemix offers 5 groups and the ability to group stereo pairs. This means you get true stereo panning and up to 12 Stereo Groups.

Categories: CSDUO, CSSOLO, Livemix

Livemix has 5 multi-channel groups, one of which is controlled with the Me Knob, and up to 12 stereo “group” links. Using this feature, you can group two channels (Stereo Keys, Guitar, Tracks) but because it only groups the volume, you can still have the ability to use the full stereo field.

At this time, the reverb feature is applied to the Master Output and cannot be removed from a specific channel.

Livemix is able to select up to 24 channels from any of the available channels on the Dante network.

Categories: CSDUO, CSSOLO, Livemix, MIX16, MIX32

Livemix supports up to 24 input channels and provides 4 additional accessory channels (Ambient Mic, Intercom, Aux Input, and Metronome).

Categories: CSDUO, CSSOLO, Livemix

Livemix has 5 multi-channel groups, one of which is controlled with the Me Knob. These groups can contain any number of channels. Livemix also supports stereo pairs. Adjacent channels can be grouped into stereo pairs for easy volume adjustments for stereo channels like keyboards and tracks.

To remove the passcode, PRESS the ME Knob for three seconds on any screen that prompts you to enter the passcode. After three seconds, release the ME Knob and PRESS and hold it for three seconds more. The passcode removal screen will appear. SELECT Yes to reboot the system, removing passcode protection.

Livemix is designed to work with a large variety of impedances. It can drive standard in-ear monitor impedances (generally 11Ω to 75Ω) up to 300Ω headphones.

Each MIX-16/MIX-32 Control Surface port supports a maximum combined CAT5e (shielded recommended) cable distance of 100 meters.

Because Livemix was designed to be volunteer friendly and easy to use, setting up effects for each channel can be done globally from one personal mixer. Setting up EQ and compression on 24 channels for every person on stage would be a nightmare (with the MIX-32 that would be 768 channels). With global effects, each channel can be optimized to fit in a mix perfectly so that each performer just needs to adjust volume and pan.

Categories: CSDUO, CSSOLO, Livemix

Livemix auto saves settings and mixes to a temparary location every 2 minutes. If you make an adjustment and power down without saving before it has a chance to auto save, you will lose your changes. It is recommended to always save a mix or global template when changes are made.

Through many years of working with worship teams, volunteers, and live bands, we have found that most musicians are not used to mixing multiple channels. We designed Livemix with this in mind. Additionally, it is much easier to offer help to another performer (or use MirrorMix®) when the channels are in the same locations from personal mixer to personal mixer.
