SPL MixDream XP Mk2, class A summing mixer

The puristic summing mixer with Class A technology.

As an analog 16-in-2 Class A summing device, MixDream XP Mk2 offers impressive sound quality and brings together single tracks in a musical way. The spatial depth of the stereo stage and the harmonic coherency of the summed signals make mixing through an analog summing device a very special experience.
The Mk2 generation of the MixDream XP offers the same outstanding audio quality as its predecessor thanks to the internal audio operating voltage of +/-30 V. In addition to the new design and an even better feel, the MixDream XP Mk2 offers another new feature: the individually switchable -18 dB level attenuation for the last four stereo channels. This is how the analog summing gets the best out of every mix!

Analog Summing

Analog summing with the MixDream XP Mk2 brings intense depth, precise localisation and impressive spatiality. Individual instruments mix with smooth transitions.
For the analog summing, individual tracks from the computer are sent via D/A converters into the MixDream XP Mk2. These are summed in the MixDream XP Mk2 and then recorded again as a stereo signal via an A/D converter in the DAW software.
The MixDream XP Mk2 is designed for stereo summing of up to 16 audio tracks in the analog domain. In combination with digital production systems, the advantages of analog and digital techniques can thus be ideally combined: digital convenience is complemented by the sound quality that until now only the best analog consoles have been able to deliver. Conceptually, the reduction to high-quality analog summing without panorama controls and faders offers the great advantage of being able to retain the entire scope of computer automation.
So when using the MixDream XP Mk2, the usual workflow with the DAW does not have to be changed, all techniques and options of a DAW can still be used without any restrictions.

Looks great, feels great – and lasts for a lifetime

MixDream XP Mk2 has a 4 mm thick, black anodized aluminum front panel and aluminum knobs milled from solid. The housing is made of high-quality steel and is powder-coated in elegant black.
