A Few Words about design:
The MCX™ is quite an unusual product, but the
reasoning behind its design was quite simple .... we
wanted to intergrate all the basic components of a
sound reinforcement system and a recording studio
into a single, transportable package.
The basic components of the MCX™ are as follows:
1. Six-channel main mixer.
2. Six-channel on-stage monitor mixer.
3. Six-channel special effects mixer.
4. Six-channel recording mixer.
5. Stereo tape deck.
2. Description of components and functions on the
MCX-106.
Descriptions may vary, depending on each manu-
facturer. In our Operating and Instruction Manual
explanation of components and functions is made
according to our usage for them.
6. One-octave equalizer.
7. Patch bay.
8. Headphone cue/monitor system.
9. Three-hundred watt power amplifier.
10. Road case.
Each of these "components" functions independently
of the others, although some do share common signal
processing and control circuitry. For example, the
main mixer, effects mixer, and recording mixer all
make use of the same input equalization on each of the
six channels. And the input trim control performs the
same function for all four mixing sections.
