PreSonus StudioLive 16.0.2 USB 16-Channel Digital Mixer
The PreSonus StudioLive 16.0.2 USB is a compact powerhouse that delivers stunning live sound and seamless recording capabilities in one small footprint. It’s the perfect mixer for anyone who needs serious performance without taking up the entire van. Now bundled with over $1,000 worth of incredible software, this is your all-in-one ticket to professional audio on a budget.
Why Choose the StudioLive 16.0.2 USB?
This mighty little mixer packs everything you need to shape your sound with precision and creativity. With pristine preamps, intuitive controls, and a suite of studio-grade software, you’ll have all the tools required to bring your musical ideas to life. From live gigs to home studio sessions, the StudioLive 16.0.2 USB is built to perform.
Studio Magic Software Suite: Get over $1,000 worth of professional software right out of the box. This collection includes Ableton Live Lite, six virtual instruments, and nine premium plug-ins in VST, AU, and AAX formats, giving you a complete toolkit for production and mixing.
Pristine XMAX Preamps: The 12 Class A XMAX solid-state mic preamplifiers deliver exceptionally clear and transparent audio. They capture every detail of your sound with high headroom and low noise, ensuring your vocals and instruments shine through with professional quality.
Fat Channel Processing: Sculpt your sound on every single channel and bus with the legendary Fat Channel. It provides a 3-band semi-parametric EQ, compressor, limiter, and downward expander, giving you the feel of an analog console with digital precision.
Effortless Control, Professional Results
The StudioLive 16.0.2 USB is designed to let your creativity flow without getting bogged down by complicated controls. Every knob and fader feels intuitive, making it a breeze to dial in the perfect mix, whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out. It's built for speed and flexibility, so you can focus on the performance, not the manual.
Scene and Setting Recall: Found the perfect mix for a specific song or venue? Save it as a Scene and recall it instantly at your next show. This feature is a lifesaver for bands and engineers who need consistent sound night after night.
Robust Aux Buses: With four auxiliary buses and two internal FX buses, you have the flexibility to create custom monitor mixes for every musician on stage. Each bus is configurable for pre- or post-fader sends, giving you total control over what everyone hears.
Included Control Software: Take command from anywhere in the room. The mixer comes with PreSonus’ UC Surface for Mac, Windows, and iPad, plus QMix-UC wireless control for iPhone and Android. Adjust monitor mixes from the stage or tweak the main mix from the back of the house.
Your Bridge Between Stage and Studio
The StudioLive 16.0.2 USB seamlessly blurs the line between live performance and studio recording. Its built-in audio interface and comprehensive connectivity options make it the central hub for all your audio projects. Plug in, record your set, and then take the tracks back to your studio for final polishing.
18x16 USB 2.0 Audio Interface: Record every channel plus the main mix simultaneously with the integrated 24-bit/48kHz audio interface. It’s perfect for capturing live performances, multitrack recording in the studio, or even podcasting with multiple guests.
Flexible I/O: The mixer features 8 mono and 4 stereo channel inputs, providing 16 total inputs to handle a wide range of sources. Whether you’re miking up a full drum kit or connecting keyboards and playback devices, you’ll have all the connections you need.
MIDI Control: Integrate the mixer into your MIDI setup with dedicated I/O. Control main output levels, recall effects presets, and even use it as a standard MIDI interface for your external gear, adding another layer of control to your workflow.
The Compact Mixer That Punches Above Its Weight
The PreSonus StudioLive 16.0.2 USB proves that great things come in small packages. It delivers the power, quality, and flexibility you’d expect from a much larger console, making it the ideal choice for small bands, houses of worship, corporate events, and home studios.
