Whether you're performing live or laying down tracks in the studio, the MS8000’s robust 1U rackmountable design ensures it fits neatly into any setup.

With its eight XLR inputs and 16 outputs, the MS8000 offers exceptional connectivity. Each channel features a Direct Out XLR connector, perfect for sending your signal to a main mixing console for front-of-house sound. The Link Out connector allows for simultaneous routing to in-ear monitors, recording interfaces, or stage monitors.

Whether you're routing vocals to multiple destinations or merging stereo signals into mono, the MS8000 makes the complex simple.

Adding to its versatility, the MS8000 passes phantom power from your mixer or preamp directly to the inputs, eliminating the need for an external power supply for condenser microphones and active direct boxes. All housed in a durable 1U chassis, this rugged unit is built to withstand the rigors of professional environments.
