Alesis has announced the MultiMix 6 Cue, a six-channel headphone amplifier and mixer which according to product manager, Dan Radin, is "Perfect for the rehearsal room and onstage, especially with in-ear monitors - the MultiMix 6 Cue is a reliable, clean, and flexible power tool." Here's the details from Alesis...
The MultiMix 6 Cue is a six-channel headphone amplifier with six independent high-power amps that provide maximum audio quality even at low levels. With the MultiMix 6 Cue, users can create up to six different mixes for up to 18 sets of headphones or monitors for clear, powerful, precise listening. The MultiMix 6 Cue contains six individual power amplifiers, which drive each channel's connected headphones.
Each channel features a four-LED output meter so that users can view levels quickly in under any lighting scenario. Users can run each channel in Stereo or Mono modes. In Mono mode, Left and Right Mute switches enable users to create additional mixes. A 1/4-inch Aux input on each channel enables users to mix in any instrument or sound source, such as a click or loop software. There's also a Direct In on the main section, which enables users to mix an additional source with all channels.
The MultiMix 6 Cue front panel provides a 1/4-inch headphone jack per channel, each with level and balance controls. Its main section provides a detailed, eight-segment LED meter and a master level knob.
On the rear panel are two additional 1/4-inch outputs per channel, creating a total of up to 18 pairs of headphones listening to six separate mixes at once. The rear panel also features stereo inputs and outputs so users can connect multiple MultiMix 6 Cue units for even greater listening capacity.
