Presonus StudioLive 24 Series III 24-Channel Digital Mixer

Description

PreSonus StudioLive 24 Series III Digital Mixer
. This item was purchased new from B&H Photo for use in our home studio/broadcasting setup. Unfortunately, we found we didn't really use it all that much (once or twice to be completely honest) and thus can no longer justify keeping it.
Item is in pristine condition with ZERO damage. Mixer was kept covered at all times and even still has plastic main screen and
scribble strips
. Again, this item was rarely used, in a non smoking home studio environment.
No box, manual, or power cord will be included, but I am throwing in a genuine PreSonus cover made specifically for this mixer. What you see is what you get. Item has been extensively tested and is guaranteed not to be DOA.
I also feel it's important to let everyone know that I have been burned several times by scam artists here on eBay. Therefore, all serial numbers will be recorded prior to shipment and any claims that the units arrived damaged or in a non working condition will be contested. Last, but not least, I DO NOT NOT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR ANY REASON. So, please ask any and all questions BEFORE bidding!
The PreSonus StudioLive 24 Series III Digital Mixer is designed for live sound reinforcement, live recording, and studio recording applications. In its third released version, the mixer is an integrated hardware and software system with 25 touch-sensitive, motorized faders and 24 recallable XMAX preamps. The redesigned digital "Fat Channel" was re-engineered from the ground up and features vintage-style EQs and compressors on every channel, recallable scene presets, virtual sound check, remote control using a Windows computer, Mac, or iPad, remote monitor mixing using an iPhone or iPod Touch, and all the software you need for live mixing, recording, and distributing your music online.
The unit features 24 input channels with 16 +48V phantom powered XLR XMAX microphone preamplifiers and 8 mic/line inputs via XLR-1/4" combo jacks. Additional inputs include two stereo 1/4" Aux inputs and a dedicated XLR talkback mic input with phantom power. For outputs, the mixer includes a balanced XLR mono output, a left and right pair of balanced stereo XLR Main outputs, and 6 XLR outputs, as well as four 1/4" mix outputs, and a pair of 1/4" monitor outputs. A digital output of the Main mix is available via XLR AES/EBU. Additionally, unbalanced stereo RCA tape inputs and outputs are provided.
For effects, the mixer features 32-bit, floating-point processing with 4-band parametric EQs on inputs, 6-band parametric EQ on outputs, eight 31-band graphic EQs, high-pass filters, limiters, compressors, expander/gates with key listen and key filter, reverbs, and delays.
For mixing, each channel features a touch-sensitive, motorized fader with choice of 1-to-1 workflow, which assigns all channels to the top layer (with one fader per input channel), or a split-layer workflow, which splits the faders between inputs and outputs, including DCAs and Aux outputs. The RGB select buttons offer user-assignable colors, while user-assignable buttons are provided for mute groups, scenes, and more. The new Fat Channel control offers 8 scribble strips, encoders, and multicolor buttons with a customizable user layer and 7" color touchscreen.
The mixer comes with Active Integration Virtual StudioLive advanced librarian/editor control software for a Windows computer or Mac, StudioLive remote control application for Apple iPad (free from Apple App Store), the QMix remote auxiliary mix application for iPhone or iPod Touch (free from Apple App Store), Capture integrated multitrack-recording software, and Studio One Artist digital audio workstation including a library of loops, plug-ins, and virtual-instrument sounds.
