Additional Information

One of the standout features of the CSX-18 is its 16-program 24-bit DSP engine, which provides internal effects. The console also has an inbuilt media player that can play audio tracks stored on a USB memory stick and record the mix output for rehearsals or performances.

The CSX-18's seven-band graphic EQ handles the console's global EQ, and the overall mix is fed through the master faders to left and right balanced XLR outputs. The console also has a 2-track RCA line input with a level control for mixing in playback sources and a 2-track RCA output that can be connected to recording equipment or used as an additional output feed. The CSX-18 Mixing Console delivers low noise and clean audio.

As well as this; the mixer provides enough features and routing options ideal for live events, conferences, and theater performances. It comes with an integral USB player/recorder with BT receiver, making it compatible with smartphones and tablets for remote playback. The console operates on a power supply of 100-240Vac, 50/60Hz (IEC), with maximum power consumption of 30W. Its compact size of 622 x 402 x 108mm makes it convenient for transportation and storage.
