The PreSonus® NSB AVB-Networked Stage Box allows you put analog I/O for your StudioLive® Series III digital mixer wherever you need it. With 16 digitally controlled XMAX mic preamps, 16 balanced line level inputs, and 8 analog outputs, the NSB 16.8 is equipped to seamlessly integrate into StudioLive Series III digital mixers with a single Ethernet connection. Remote control input trims, phantom power, and more, directly from your StudioLive Series III console or from UC Surface remote mixing software on your tablet or laptop.
Loaded with 16 versatile locking combo jacks, you can connect your microphones to digitally-controlled XMAX preamps, or use the balanced 1/4" TRS inputs to connect your line level devices—the NSB 16.8 can handle it all. The inputs can be sent to any StudioLive Series III digital mixer on the network. Thanks to gain compensation, every mixer gets individual gain control without affecting the front-of-house mix.
Housed in a rugged steel chassis with sturdy handles, the NSB 16.8 is built mobile and durable for the rigors of demanding tours. PreSonus also designed it to be an install-friendly stage box: Just remove the handles and attach the optional rackmount kit (sold separately). For permanent installations, the NSB 16.8 is also compatible with stage pockets from Ace Backstage.
