Mackie DLZ Creator XS Compact Digital Mixer for Podcasting and Streaming

About: Mackie DLZ Creator XS Compact Digital Mixer for Podcasting and Streaming

Better. Faster. Creator. DLZ Creator XS is an adaptive digital mixer that enables creators of all levels to quickly get pro results for podcasts, YouTube, and live streaming.

DLZ Creator XS features the same DSP processing power and features of the larger model, including Mix Agent™ virtual audio assistant, and AutoMix, now in a compact design that doesn't sacrifice on capability. Setup Assistant guides you through the user experience, AutoMix manages levels for you, and new voice-changing effects give more control over your sound than ever before. The flexible design includes recording/streaming to computer, SD card, or USB flash drive for all creative needs.

• Better. Faster. Creator. DLZ Creator XS is a compact, adaptive digital mixer for podcasting and streaming that enables users of all experience levels to quickly get professional results for podcasts, YouTube videos, live streams, and more.
• Create on your terms. Three control modes (Easy, Enhanced, Pro) instantly adapt the 7” touchscreen controls to meet your style and skill level without compromising sound quality.
• AutoMix manages levels for up to two mics so you and your guest or co-host can be heard, even when you both speak at the same time—a huge help when hosting a podcast or YouTube show. You can even give both people their own customized headphone mixes.
• DLZ Creator XS is more than a podcast mixer or audio interface. Use it to record or stream multitrack audio to a computer via USB-C or an NDI connection, or straight to SD card for a truly self-contained setup.
• Avoid menu diving with six customizable trigger pads. Set the pads to trigger samples from 8 storage banks, add voice-changing FX and use important controls like censor, duck, fade and “locals only” (for off-the-record chatting).
• Meet your new audio engineer. Mix Agent™ technology is like a virtual audio assistant that guides you through setup and automates functions for an efficient, user-friendly experience.
• Guest stuck in traffic? No problem. Integrate a phone call into your mix via Bluetooth® and activate Mix Minus with one tap, so the caller won’t hear their voice echo when they speak.
• Enjoy studio-quality audio. Onyx80 mic preamps ensure any mic you use will sound loud and pristine.

Create on Your Own Terms

DLZ Creator XS is a compact, adaptive digital mixer that enables creators of all levels to quickly get pro results for podcasts, YouTube, and live streaming.
