More about QSC's TouchMix Series

Get the performance of a large-format mixing console—in a refined, portable package. The TouchMix Series makes mixing efficient, accessible, and affordable. From setting up basic instrument or vocal channels, to optimizing your audio’s dynamics and processing, to complex monitor routing, this series of digital mixers is ideal for professional and novice musicians, bands, AV production professionals, and small performance venues. TouchMix also provides Wizards, Presets, and other tools to help you get great results from your sound.

With class-A microphone preamps, top-quality converters, and meticulous design detail throughout the entire signal chain, TouchMix delivers pristine audio quality and tons of functions including EQ, compressors, gates and limiters, and much more! These mixers’ onboard effects rival sophisticated (and expensive) outboard processors and can be used simultaneously without having to give up channels or Auxes. Choose from two types of reverb, chorus, pitch change, and mono or stereo delay. An Effects Wizard helps you decide which effect to choose and where to apply it.

Touchmix is extremely easy to learn and operate. Its intuitive workflow and straightforward navigation doesn’t compromise on any features or capabilities. Choose from Simple Mode (which presents essential controls only) or Advanced Mode (which gives you complete control over all parameters). Its touch-and-turn interface gives you tactile control over fader and mixer parameters while maintaining a reliable fixed hardware connection.

Offering the choice between hardware and wireless, this family of mixers includes the TouchMix Control app for iOS and Android devices. This app offers a portable, wireless mixer interface and provides additional control surfaces for the system operator. For workstations that have multiple users, you can customize access levels and select what sets of mixer controls are available to each user.

TouchMix enables live multitrack recording and playback. Record on all inputs plus a Main or Aux Stereo mix, saving your recording directly to an external USB hard drive—no need to have an external computer hooked up. For playback, tracks can be mixed down or combined with live inputs as live performance tracks. Import tracks into a PC or Mac DAW software using the free TouchMix DAW utility.
