Midas Venice F-16R: Live and in the Studio

The stereo channels consist of a stereo XLR microphone input as well as a stereo jack input. You can route the line input directly to the master and connect a mic to the microphone input on these channels. If you then change the channel to mono mode, you can create eight additional microphone inputs. The Firewire connection is capable of sending and receiving 16 channels for easy multitrack recording on your computer. With the Venice F-16R, you can record the soundcheck of the band you're mixing and listen to the audio, allowing you to make a virtual soundcheck using plugins on your computer.

Midas Microphone Preamps

The microphone preamps on the F-16R are of legendary Midas quality. These preamps are made up of distinct components, not chips. As such, they are able to withstand clipping and every preamp is equipped with its own gain regulator, polarity switch, 80 Hz high-pass filter and -20dB pad. Moreover, all channels have a Firewire switch that allows you to choose between digital or analogue in or out, and whether you want pre or post EQ. You can even turn the four-band tone control for each channel on or off. Naturally, each channel features a smooth, 100mm fader that allows you to comfortably set the perfect balance.
