Onyx16

It’s a great mixer , excellent pre amps , very compact I have a Allen & Heath zed 14fx which is the same size with lesser channels and features . The Mackie onyx 16 has Bluetooth , stereo recording to an SD card , multitrack recording through USB . Highly recommend this mixer

This is a defective piece. Product and amazon service is ridiculous. I will never go to amazon for anything.

compre esta mezclado pensando en usarla tanto en estudio como en presentaciones. Cumple muy bien en ambas tareas. como interfaz es muy sencilla ya que solo controlas la ganancia. pero el sonido de los preamps es bueno

Does everything just as advertised. USB output allows audio capture with various recording software. Easy to use, sound is great.

I waited 6 months before reviewing my Onyx16. I primarily use this in a home studio, but it would make an exceptional live mixer as well. I currently route it's outputs into some powered Kali studio monitors and the sound quality is exceptional. I expected to use it as an audio interface, but I didn't expect it to be such a versatile audio interface. I plugged a USB cable from the mixer to my Macbook (I use Logic Pro), and instantly had 18 individual digital inputs and digital returns that I could route/patch (within the Mac) to my heart's content. HiZ inputs on channels 1/2 make it easy to just plug a guitar or bass in (and DI into the Mac), and the stereo inputs on 9/10, 11/12...., make it a breeze to run stereo keyboards in as well. The additional Bluetooth input allows you to pair your phone, so easy to get Spotify into the rig to jam along with (and it gives you 2 extra channels if you want to run a stereo line in, or additional stereo FX return). The built in effects are adequate for most applications, but with each channel acting as it's own audio interface, you could do all the digital effect processing you could ever want on each channel within Logic or Main Stage and feed the output back into the mixer. One irritating stupid drawback: When you turn on the Onyx, it defaults the effects back to it's default DELAY setting. Easy to switch, but seems very "amateur" to have to reset it every time you power it up. The SD card recording is also just a quirky gimmick that's actually useless in my opinion. Maybe useful to some that want to just raw dump all of the output (i.e. as a form of documentation), but the auto file naming (AUD000001.WAV, AUD000002) quickly makes it useless as a working tool in a professional environment where you'd quickly have more than a few files. The Rec/Play/Pause buttons are really laggy too, so useless as a professional tool for recording your band in a live setting. And for those that think it would be nice for "break music", it would be far easier to just Bluetooth your phone. So those two drawbacks aside, the mixer/interface functionality eclipses the wonky SD recording, and the irritating requirement to reset the effects on every power up. I've now got a very versatile mixer, and a very versatile audio interface to my computer environment and on those two fronts I'd have to rate the Onyx 5 stars. At this price point, this is a solid pro level working musician tool.

La compré para usarla en ensayos y presentaciones, con la intención de grabar en la tarjeta sd, pero no funcionó jamás la salida de main. Por tal motivo ya programé la devolución.

did not receive everything package looked like it was used box beat up and very taped stay away
