Product Description
Mackie DLZ CREATOR Adaptive Digital Mixer with Mix Agent Technology
Overview
A Powerhouse Audio Studio for Content Creation
Designed for content creators, the Mackie DLZ Creator is an adaptive digital mixer for podcasting and streaming that's designed for users of all experience levels to quickly get professional results for podcasts, YouTube videos, live streams, and more. The mixer features Mix Agent technology, Onyx80 microphone preamps, and a 10.1" touchscreen that tailors the controls based on your choice of modes (Easy, Enhanced, or Pro).
Mix Agent is a virtual audio assistant that guides you through set up and automates functions for an efficient, user-friendly experience. AutoMix manages levels for up to four microphones, so you and your guests can be heard, even when everyone speaks at the same time. You can also integrate a phone call into your mix via Bluetooth and activate Mix Minus with one tap, so the caller won't hear their voice echo when they speak. More than a podcast mixer or audio interface, the DLZ Creator can record or stream multitrack audio to a computer via USB-C or straight to an SD card for a truly self-contained setup.
