Presonus StudioLive AR16c 16-Channel Hybrid Digital/Analog Performance Mixer

Don’t let the classic analog mixer design fool you—the StudioLive AR16c was built to record.

Featuring a pristine analog front end with 12 high-gain XMAX-L mic preamps and an 18x4, 24-bit, 96 kHz, USB-C-compatible USB 2.0 audio interface, the StudioLive AR16c’s hybrid design makes it simple to mix and record.

Add in a musical 3-band analog EQ, mic/line boost for low-level sources including vintage synths, all-new digital effects with rich reverbs and lush delays, Bluetooth connectivity, and a stereo SD recorder... and you have a mixing and recording powerhouse that fulfills the needs of both modern musicians and content creators.
