“Whenever we talk to XB-14 customers, they are always enthusiastic about the mixer’s great sound quality and high number of features packed into in a compact frame – features that make installers and broadcasters’ jobs easier, and combined in a way that makes the XB-14 super flexible in a range of studio setups.’ explains designer, Mike Griffin. “Mk2 includes the remaining features that have been requested by end users over the years. We’re sure they are going to be even happier!’
