Don't let the classic analog mixer design fool you - the StudioLive® AR16c was built to record. Featuring a pristine analog front end with 12 high-gain XMAX mic preamps and an 18x4, 24-bit, 96 kHz, USB-C™-compatible USB 2.0 audio interface, the StudioLive® AR16c's hybrid design makes it simple to mix and record. Add in a musical 3-band analog EQ, mic/line boost for low-level sources including vintage synths, all-new digital effects with rich reverbs and lush delays, Bluetooth® connectivity, and a stereo SD recorder... and you have a mixing and recording powerhouse that fulfills the needs of both modern musicians and content creators.
