Mackie Onyx 1640i.m4v

[tomhirschler]

I have 2 words for you: tripod, and focus. Other than that, not a bad video.

[princemarvin1]

can this mixer be connected to a allen& heath mixer?



[harrymerchant456]

I just cant stand the way this mixer has the EQ's at the top and the aux sends at the bottom. We have our fingers on the EQ constantly when mixing and writing, but not on the aux sends. So why on earth is it deemed logical to put the EQ knobs where their less easy to adjust fluently. Its not just Mackie, there are many desks doing this illogical format. A real shame as I would have considered this desk.

Good video though :)

[GidonRicardo]

no one says this but after working 5 months with this console I can say that it is worth every damn penny!! wonderful mixer! absolute pleasure.

Check out the studio I built by my self and the console right smack in the middle.

I LOVE ONYX 1640i.

[rhyskallen]

i want to get this mixer for my rap band i have abelton live and i want a daw controller to control the sliders on the screen so it will adjust the volumes will this work??

[themrbrown510]

@rhyskallen no it wont

[rhyskallen]

@themrbrown510 okay thanks anyways :)

[benji174]

@maxbatero182 integrated interface, with firewire in each channel.

[santiago99989]

I can mix with tracktor and listen deck A and deck B indepedent, i ask that beacuse i need a mixer for live sound and record but also i have to mix with tracktor or other dj software! thank you!!

[metalupyourass9]

Can you record your firewire returns back into the DAW (post mix)

[ditroiamusic]

Can the onyx mixers be used as a control surface for DAWS? I'm alittle confused with that lol. All I want to do is move a fader and have the fader in Sonar move with it...Or do I need something like the U control, or Project Mix, etc? Thank you.

[albertonewyorker]

@ditroiamusic No, they can't. To do that, you'll need a DAW controller.

[ditroiamusic]

@albertonewyorker Ok. Thank you. I appreciate the help. Something like the project mix or mastercontrol then?

[maxbatero182]

@albertonewyorker hey man! this mixer has a integrated interface?? or you need buy an external interface?

[nublackmusic]

We tink it's a bit overpriced. it does not have effects or scenes saving. for four hundred more you can get the presonus 16 4 2. this is similar the zed r16. not having scene recall is a big buzz kill!

[mrguano7]

@nublackmusic Presonus = Crap Quality

[yayayayayaya36]

So, this is basically a remote for Pro Tools when connected via firewire, correct?

[GRUPOSOLLATINO]

hi there. Can you help me. I bought mackie 1640. I'm new recording. when recording two channels for example .... I hear those two channels and Iwant record another channel .. I can not hear it all together .. as I do? please help

[daxtracy]

hi rev gud day i dnt know much of the recording...when u record tru computer would it effect the volume i set up with the computer if i slide some controls up or down please any video u have re recording im very interested of buying this prouduct my plan is to do a live band recording plesae advise tnx...

[TheHasselBoff]

@daxtracy Your gain control at the top of each channel will effect the volume going into your software, the faders; depending on how you've got it set up will just increase in volume through your speakers, but won't affect the level going into your software.

[leftystrat76]

Hmmm, at the gig recording I think the DAW inputs aren't set up correctly-- at 5:22 it looks like all tracks are recording the same single mic. All the waveforms are identical! Ooops.

[secotwo2]

man u sound like u got a gun to your head to say this...

[broadcasterG]

does it only work with pro tools m-powered? or can it work with pro tools le/hd?

[MrErdewan]

@broadcasterG only m-powered 8

[k1kevin]

Hi I wander onyx 1640i dose support Nuendo in F.W. ?

[YourADrag]

nice video. picking one up and watched this before just to be safe.

[drumsdrumdrumdrum]

There are 16 direct outs via d-sub-25

[CHRCAR5]

HOW MANY DIRECT OUTPUTS  8??

[smlwong]

@CHRCAR5 there are no direct outs physically. only through firewire

[dontkissass]

Can you control the faders inside of protools 8 as well with the mackie faders?

and can you record all 16 tracks at 96k?

[dontkissass]

did you record all 16 tracks at 96k?

[damoskinosko]

yeah i was wondering if the faders are automated. somehow i doubt it otherwise you'd think they'd have shown that particular feature off... how much does this thing cost?

[Juancito413]

Are they automated faders?

[SteveBrownOfficial]

Nice.

[TheStoryWeLive]

wont work with m powered protools so not all DAW lol

[TheMetavox]

@TheStoryWeLive yup... works with m-powered too

[genxtargetmarket]

@TheStoryWeLive

It does work with ProTools M-Powered.

[duuuhhh]

I'm curious about your session setup in Pro Tools. Could you set it up to record at higher than 48kHz sample rates?

[genxtargetmarket]

@duuuhhh

Yes, up to 96kHz if your DAW supports it.

[insleepsound]

Yeah i'm sure youtube would really do the recording justice...

[TheHam100]

do you smoke?

all very well showing the band, but hearing the result after mixing wouldve been nice
