Mackie 1642-VLZ4 - 16x4x2 Compact Mixer with 10 Mic Pre-Amps

The Mackie 1642-VLZ4 is a compact analogue 16-channel, 4-bus mixer with 10 boutique quality Onyx mic preamps and 3-band EQ. The 1642-VLZ4 also features 4 balanced inserts, 4 aux sends and 4 stereo returns for integrating outboard gear, an alternative 3/4 stereo bus for added routing flexibility, and all housed within a rugged steel chassis.

The VLZ4 design goal was simple: every VLZ4 mixer must have the highest headroom and lowest noise possible. Strict attention to component quality and tolerances has led to innovations like our custom M80 op-amps and class-leading negative summing bus architecture that add yet another level of assurance that a Mackie VLZ4 mixer is the right choice for your professional audio application.

Mackie VLZ mixers are truly “Built-Like-A-Tank.” From beer spills to drops from moving vehicles, the testimonials are as endless as the applications Mackie mixers serve. The VLZ4 series is certainly no exception. With a nearly indestructible steel wrap-around chassis and features like grime-resistant rotary sealed pots, you can be sure that buying a Mackie VLZ4 mixer is a solid investment.

VLZ4’s new black powder coat finish, cockpit-inspired controls and high-contrast knobs not only optimize your mixer’s usability in low-light scenarios, it also means your mixer looks as good as it performs.
