The MDX4600 V2 also offers true stereo processing with its Stereo Couple feature, linking channels 1/2 and 3/4 for synchronized dynamics control. This durable unit is equipped with precise, 8-segment LED meters for monitoring input/output levels and gain reduction, ensuring you have complete visual feedback during use.

With switchable +4 dBu or -10 dBV operating levels and comprehensive Side Chain I/O, the MDX4600 V2 provides the flexibility you need for any setup. The servo-balanced XLR and 1/4" inputs and outputs ensure pristine signal integrity for both live and studio applications.
