Description

Designed in collaboration with Greg Mackie and Peter Watts, the Korg SoundLink MW-2408 Hybrid Analog/Digital Mixer is a full featured, hybrid analogue/digital mini-console for easy creative mixing, well suited for bands, musicians, recording studios, houses of worship, broadcast applications, and more.

The MW-2408 utilises some advanced designs and features including Peter Watt's HiVolt microphone preamp, which includes Trident technology and provides a rich warm sound that delivers low noise and high headroom, as well as musical EQs and dynamics. There are four easily programmable and recallable mute groups that allow you to instantly call up different combinations of channels for songs, a solo acoustic number, various groups onstage, a drum solo, and more. There are two more-me musician's headphone knobs, which utilise a single-knob boost of the complete L/R mix into the musician's individual track. This affords the mix engineer a simple solution to boosting the monitor signal without having to change the main mix or take up an extra bus.

The MW-2408's digital side provides quick and easily accessible DSP without frustrating menu diving. Easily assign equalisation, limiters, compression, and gating to L/R, Aux1, and Aux2. The tweakable effects are effective without sounding harsh or exaggerated and all parameters are easily recallable. Couple this with an onboard 31-band spectrum analyser, and a 31-band / 9-band ParaGraphic AEQ, and you'Voe got a powerhouse of mixing problem solvers wrapped up into a pint-sized package. Furthermore, the mixer features high-quality, proprietary Korg custom and ultra-realistic digital effects. Thoughtfully designed throughout, you'll find all your standard effects. What's more, all six reverbs include warm versions for an even bigger pallet.

The rear panel includes eight mono mic/line inputs with XLR or 1/4" inputs, while the stereo channels include a mono XLR mic input and stereo paired 1/4" inputs. XLRs are used on the main outputs as well as the aux outputs. Additionally, there are 1/4" main outs and 1/4" outs for Aux 3 and 4, as well as group outputs and the monitor output. The Korg SoundLink MW-2408 includes iZotope RX 7 Elements.

    This is an amazing mixer for synthesizer rig or any electronic music rig with many stereo sources. I am buying a second one and pairing it with UAD Apollo 16 rack. So I have 16 stereo channels in and 16 line channels out for less than 5k using two of these mixers. The generous use of 6mm line in for all channels make it an easy fit using existing cables. The four auxiliaries on each board, eight for the two give me ample routing to effects boxes or other synths and it’s extremely well laid out. The sound is clean but alive - yes I’ve had better analog mixers, but they cost 20k and This wee korg costs 2k so for ideas and rehearsal it’s fine. Using the two of them I can also route 16 stereo channels into the dAW at once using the 8 group outs on each mixer, and simultaneously feed 16 channels back to the mixers from the daw and compress/ eq on the analog mixers with the processed signal going to the main Outputs for recording. This is a powerful yet simple mixer format for electronic musicians with decent quality and no menu diving. If you already have a decent ad /da interface this mixer provides the analog front end that saves the need for patchbays or rewiring. There is nothing else in this price bracket that has this channel count, with faders / auxes/ mute groups/ individual headphone sub mixes / and multichannel recording. It’s extremely flexible, simple and well built. The only negative is metering, if it had better led metering on each channel it would be perfect.
