AUDIOARTS 08
8 CHANNEL ANALOG RADIO MIXER
Tiny Mixer. Huge Functionality.

The 08 is designed to be the best-in-category mixer for small market
broadcasters - whether they operate out of studios or bedrooms.
Small in size and price, big in usefulness, this console is ideal for
LPFMs, podcasts, web streaming or remote applications requiring a
simple low profile eight-channel board. Made for the demands of
professional broadcasting, the Audioarts 08 is designed for
fast-paced, live on-air, streamed or produced applications with easy
access to controls.
In one compact frame, the Audioarts 08 covers all the basics with a
single stereo mixing bus (balanced or unbalanced output); two mic
inputs (one for guest, and one for host); USB input to play in audio
from a PC; USB output to record directly to PC recording software;
mix-minus telephone output for interfacing to a telephone hybrid;
monitor, headphone and cue for off-air monitoring; speaker mute for
muting monitor speakers when the mic is on (eliminating the
possibility of feedback); and unbalanced or balanced inputs/outputs
for interface with consumer or professional grade equipment.

Features
- 8-channel frame
- Stereo mixing bus, balanced or unbalanced
- Compact, tabletop mount
- Long-throw faders on inputs and monitors
- Dual, super-quiet, high-performance microphone preamps
- LED illumination on all switches
- Headphone jack with built-in amplifier (with +20dB output)
- USB - bidirectional audio port for convenient interfacing to computers and automation systems

Input section
CUE Button (Channels 2-8) Places the channel’s signal on the
console’s cue bus, where it may be heard in the external cue speaker,
as an interrupt to the console operator’s headphones, and as an
interrupt to the monitor speakers, if so programmed.
TB Button (Channel 1/Mic only) When the TB switch is pressed
(it is momentary action), the microphone will interrupt the regular
caller signal, thus allowing the DJ to talk to the caller prior to
airing.
FADER Sets the channel’s level.
MIC 1/MIC 2 Buttons Turns the mic channels on and off by
means of electronic switching and can simultaneously start external
source machines. The mic channels can also be programmed to activate
monitor mute and on air tally.
Stereo Button Turns the channel on and off by means of
electronic switching and can simultaneously start external source
machines.
Simple Phone (Channel 7 only) Used for telephone call-in
segments and controls the audio for the caller. The signal enters the
console from your station hybrid.
USB (Channel 8 only) Selects signal from USB port and brings
it into console as a stereo analog signal.
Control Room Section
EXT Switch Pressing the EXT switch allows the operator to
pick up the external input (useful for such items as tape recorders or
air returns) to listen.
CUE Level Control Determines the overall loudness of the cue
signal as it appears in the console’s cue speaker.
CONTROL ROOM Level Control Determines the overall loudness of
the signal being monitored as it appears in the Control Room speakers.
HEADPHONE Level Control Determines the overall loudness of the
headphone output signal.
