Roland Mx-1 Mix Performer, 18 Channel Mixer

Product Information

The Master FX section also offers a Combi mode, which lets users assign different effects to each step across the sequencer, with unique, if a little full-on, results. The MX-1 offers a unique MASTERING chain of audio signal processors at its Main Output! Mastering is a crucial aspect of music production and a necessary stage in the process of releasing music. In the digital realm, mastering is the act of “cleaning and polishing” a mix, to prepare it for commercial release. egendary DJ and Producer François Kevorkian talks about the MX-1 Mix Performer and other AIRA gear. Mix mode provides six analog, one digital (stereo), four AIRA (stereo) , and two PC channels through mixer and FX

There are also four AIRA Link USB ports that make connecting your AIRA gear literally plug and play. With fully automatic detection, AIRA Link USB ports transmit audio, MIDI, and sync over a single USB cable. One of the ports can even provide bus power for a compatible AIRA device like the TB-3 Touch Bassline or VT-3 Voice Transformer. AIRA Link reduces cable clutter and makes setup fast and simple. The collaboration was unveiled at ADE 2015, with an exclusive performance from KiNK, who was only too happy to test the new hookup. This is an incredibly useful tool for live performance, particularly if you like to improvise on multiple sound sources live, or if you are planning to use your MX-1 for DJ-style performances.If there was ever an extremely simple way of using both hardware and software in a tidy setup to organize and deliver a live/DJ set inspired by the likes of top professionals, then this is definitely it. It isn't only a performance tool either. If you wish to use the MX-1 to control 18 channels of music production software, you could do that in external mode or alternatively you use it as a controller for production software like Ableton Live via MIDI. BIT CRUSH:The BIT CRUSH effect works by reducing the resolution of your audio signal. It is a great way to add grittiness to your clean drum sounds.

The [TONE] knobs can also act as controls for directly editing other various parameters. This is particularly useful for live performances, as it is a more accessible and time-efficient way to change parameters. Holding the [PAN] button while turning the [TONE] knob will allow you to PAN, without having to use the [VALUE] control knob. Each channel on the MX-1 has a volume fader with a choice of six definable volume curves, a dedicated MUTE button and a TONE/FILTER knob that sits atop the channel. In Control Surface mode, the MX-1 can sync to your computer and act as a high-quality MIDI controller for your DAW. Cool. But it gets way more interesting… a) You may only use the SOFTWARE on a specific single computer at one time. Use of the SOFTWARE shall include loading the SOFTWARE into temporary memory (i.e., RAM) or installing the SOFTWARE into storage media (i.e., hard disk) of the computer on which you will use the SOFTWARE. The AUX SEND can be set to either PRE or POST-FADER. Adding effects via AUX SEND PRE-FADER means that your external effect is affecting your sound source before it’s mixed with the rest of your sounds. This allows you to creatively experiment with the external effect before you add the MX-1’s internal effects as well.In standard MIXER mode, DIGITAL and PC Channels can receive audio from your computer, as long as there are no connections made to these inputs. From your DAW, OUTPUT 7/8 will send to the MX-1’s DIGITAL Channel and OUTPUT 17/18 will be sent to the PC Channel.

The MX-1 will have features that you may find on some higher end Pioneer DJ mixers, as well as FX step sequence possibilities often found on pricier boutique effects units. It'll share the solid look but soft and fluffy tactile controls of the Aira machines with the addition of being a flexible tool that could be used for more than one application. With the built-in FX, however, it'll be possible that the MX-1 might sound dated in years to come but the MX-1 is a highly versatile piece of kit. It'll be like a live performance tool that comes to life and conjunction with the other Aira instruments it creates few possibilities that other machines can. Bringing together components of a mixer, control surface, audio interface and a step based effector, the Mix Performer is designed to be at the center of your electronic music rig. It’s a mixer you can play – and so much more. 18-channel Performance Mixer With Step-sequenced Fx, Transport, And Tempo Control In Mixer mode, the MX-1 can mix all connected sources, including analog and digital inputs, AIRA gear, and your computer’s output. While there’s a dedicated channel for a stereo output from your computer, you can also send computer audio to USB channels 1 thru 4 if no device is connected to the AIRA Link USB ports. Very cool. MX-1 Mix Performer "Live Mode" mengambil pendekatan berpikiran ke depan untuk mencampur dan kemampuan audio interface yang tangguh dan memadukannya dengan kemampuan untuk mengendalikan peluncuran klip dan adegan Live sebaik pilihan dan pemantauan lagu. Hasilnya adalah lingkungan terpadu yang memungkinkan Anda mencampuradukkan perangkat keras dan perangkat lunak secara otomatis, merekam masukan apa pun secara langsung ke klip, meluncurkan klip dan adegan, menerapkan efek langsung, efek berurutan, dan bahkan membawa semuanya ke tahap di mana Anda dapat benar-benar bermain Live dan jika Anda sudah menggunakan controller seperti Push, MX-1 terintegrasi dengan sempurna, memperluas kemampuan keduanya, dan membuka kemungkinan baru untuk musik Anda. Tempo 40–300 Scene Memory 16 x 4 (Bank A, B) BEAT FX FILTER: 5 typesArmed with only a few sustained sounds from Ableton Live and a TR-8, KiNK shows how the MX-1 takes electronic music performance to the next level. Para fader yang halus dan solid masing-masing memiliki enam kurva volume yang berbeda. Setiap channel memiliki tombol Tone/Filter yang dapat disetel dengan sepuluh jenis filter, EQ, dan isolator.

Tombol headphone dan master head yang terpisah beserta metering yang halus dan terang tetap erat. Dan semuanya, termasuk semua pengaturan dan pengaturan FX, dapat disimpan dan digunakan kembali untuk akses instan. Drama. Berirama. Dapatkan efek yang diinginkan. The [LEVEL] knob adjusts the headphone output while the [MIXING] knob adjusts the balance between the MASTER OUTPUT and the channel whose [SELECT] button is lit. This PRE-FADER listening option makes it possible to use the MX-1 as a DJ mixer. Use this feature to prepare your next song or sound, before bringing it into the master mix. Each channel will benefit from a Tone/Filter rotary. They can be assigned an EQ or filter effect from the range of ten options, which cover bases from the DJ-style bi-directional filtering to low/high frequency boosts. They offer a wide range of tone-shaping options, even though anyone used to performing with DJ gear or more traditional "live" mixers will likely miss having a proper three-band EQ. b) The OSS, etc. in the case of the preceding paragraph shall be subject to the OSS, etc. license (herein referred to as "OSS License"), and you shall comply with the OSS License.

Turn the [VALUE] knob to select the TONE/FILTER type. Below are the different TONE types and their key function. Each channel also benefits from a Tone/Filter rotary. These can be assigned an EQ or filter effect from a range of ten options, which cover bases from DJ-style bi-directional filtering to low/high frequency boosts. These offer a decent range of tone-shaping options, although anybody used to performing with DJ gear or more traditional 'live' mixers, will likely miss having a proper (at least) three-band EQ. To use them alongside an existing interface, you need to create an aggregate interface but, since the Airas have a fixed sample rate of 96k, they can be inflexible on that front. So, being able to hook multiple Aira units up to a single hub - which also provides a decent number of analogue ins for recording - is considerably more convenient. The MX-1 has an adjustable sample rate too. By default, the audio from your computer is fed to the PC Channel on the mixer. If no AIRA devices are connected to the USB Host ports, you can direct your DAW audio to be input into USB Channels 1 – 4.
