Main mix noise of -88.5 dBu (92 dB S\/N ref +4 dBu), EIN of -128.5 dBu and THD below 0.0007% at 35 dB gain place the 1604VLZ4 above most compact mixers in this format. It is a long-established platform in professional broadcast and post-production facilities, on stage and in conference rooms across more than two decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003e16 Onyx preamps and 16 balanced inserts — one quality level across every channel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eUnlike the 1642VLZ4, where stereo channels carry a different EQ and some channels lack inserts, the 1604VLZ4 treats all 16 channels identically: each has an Onyx preamp with a 60 dB gain range, 3-band EQ with sweepable mid (100 Hz to 8 kHz, ±15 dB), an 18 dB\/octave low-cut filter at 75 Hz and a full balanced insert. That means 16 parallel insert points through which an external compressor, EQ or effect unit can be patched without any routing behind the console. Six aux sends — four standard and two additional via a SHIFT 5\/6 button — support complex monitoring configurations and multi-loop effect setups simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eControl room section, eight direct outs and four stereo returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eChannels 1-8 carry direct outputs for recording each of those channels to a separate track without affecting the rest of the mix. The dedicated control room section with a source matrix (main mix or tape in) and independent level control enables monitoring of different signals without disturbing the main bus — standard practice in broadcast and post-production applications. Four stereo returns accommodate effect processors or additional stereo sources. The mixer mounts in a rack in three physical configurations via the Rotopod accessory (sold separately) or with the included standard rack ears. A powder-coated steel chassis and sealed rotary controls close the picture of a console built for both studio and road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e16 channels, each with Onyx preamp, line input and balanced insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e4-bus architecture (4 subgroups + L\/R main bus)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e16 Onyx mic preamps — 60 dB gain range, EIN -128.5 dBu, THD \u0026lt; 0.0007%\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 128.5 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e16 balanced inserts on every channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEQ (all channels): 3-band with sweepable mid 100 Hz – 8 kHz, ±15 dB + 18 dB\/oct low-cut @ 75 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e6 aux sends (4 standard + 2 via SHIFT 5\/6)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e4 stereo returns\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e8 direct outputs (channels 1-8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e4 group\/bus outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDedicated control room section with source matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e+48 V phantom power (global switch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePFL solo\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e60 mm log-taper faders\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e12-segment stereo meters\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSealed rotary controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePowder-coated steel chassis, rack ears included\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMulti-voltage universal power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWeight: 9.1 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eChannels: 16 (all mono, identical specification)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eArchitecture: 4-bus (4 subgroups + L\/R main bus)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMain mix noise (fader unity, channels down): -88.5 dBu (S\/N 92 dB ref +4 dBu)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMain mix noise (fader unity, channels unity): -82.5 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTHD (1 kHz @ 35 dB gain): mic in → insert send \u0026lt; 0.0007% \/ mic in → main out \u0026lt; 0.005%\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEIN (mic input → insert send, max gain, 150 Ω): -128.5 dBu (20 Hz – 20 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 128.5 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCMRR: \u0026gt; 70 dB @ 1 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: +0\/-1 dB, 20 Hz – 50 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAttenuation\/crosstalk (1 kHz): mute -84 dBu \/ gain down -84 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum input levels: mic in +22 dBu \/ all other inputs +22 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum output levels: main TRS out +28 dBu \/ all other outputs +22 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMic input impedance: 2.5 kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOther input impedances: 10 kΩ or greater\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOutput impedances: 120 Ω (tape out 1.1 kΩ)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEQ (all channels, 3-band): High shelf ±15 dB @ 12 kHz \/ Mid peak ±15 dB sweep 100 Hz – 8 kHz \/ Low shelf ±15 dB @ 80 Hz \/ low-cut 18 dB\/oct @ 75 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePower consumption: 50 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePower supply: 100–120 V AC \/ 200–240 V AC, 50–60 Hz (multi-voltage)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature: 0°C – 40°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDimensions: 44.0 cm (W) x 43.3 cm (D) x 12.9 cm (H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWeight: 9.1 kg (20.0 lbs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mackie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53436405350737,"sku":"1245","price":821.39,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/MACKIE1604VLZ41.jpg?v=1775571343","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr\/products\/mackie-1604-vlz-4","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
