Mackie 1402-VLZ3 Get a Free 1402-VLZ Mixer Bag with every order! (a $39.99 value!) Just slightly larger than our 1202-VLZ3, the Mackie 1402-VLZ3 offers everything its little brother has-plus two additional mic/line channels, faders instead of knobs, and a few extra Master Section features. Ideal for home and project studios, the 1402-VLZ3 is equally at home on the road, on the stage, or in the recording studio. With its new look, ergonomic carry handle, and upgraded electronics, the new 1402-VLZ3 just might redefine the term "perfection. "While keeping all the features and functionality of its predecessor, the new Mackie 1402-VLZ3 offers even greater headroom. We could have stopped right then and there, but we're obsessed with perfection. So we redesigned the Mix Bus, tweaked the EQs, and created a mixer with a highly intuitive, musical feel. Mackie 1402-VLZ3 Description: VASTLY SUPERIOR XDR2 MIC PREAMPS Our new XDR2 (Extended Dynamic Range) second-generation mic preamps are better than ever. These new pres offer incredibly low noise, with individual mic pre THD below 0.0007%, and overall mixer THD less than 0.0025%. With 60dB of available gain per channel, the 1402-VLZ3 can handle inputs ranging from a whisper to a scream, and can even handle hot line-level signals up to +22db, without any added coloration. You simply won't find preamps this good on any other mixer in this price range. EQUALIZATION We invested tremendous resources optimizing the center frequencies of our 3-band Active EQs. By selecting 80Hz, 2.5kHz and 12kHz, for the Lows, Mids and Highs, respectively, we created an even more musical EQ than on previous VLZs. With up to 15dB boost/cut capability per band, VLZ3's Active EQ provides more tone-sculpting latitude than any other mixer in its class. PROFESSIONAL FEATURES The Mackie 1402-VLZ3 is packed with premium features on every mic channel: 75Hz Low-Cut filters, two Aux Sends, inserts, phantom power, constant-loudness Pan controls and Pre Fader Solo. And since you can never have too many output options, we provided a Control Room/Phones source matrix, Master Aux section with EFX to Monitor, tape outputs, a high-volume headphone amplifier and balanced XLR and TRS outputs. NEED EVEN MORE FLEXIBILITY? Greg Mackie's mind was working overtime when he originally came up with this-instead of sending muted signals into the vacuum of space, why not do something useful with them? So, when you press the mute button on the 1402-VLZ3, the signal is indeed muted-but it also appears at the ALT 3-4 output jacks and ALT 3-4 stereo bus. This is an ideal way to create additional Aux Sends and mixes for cry rooms, green rooms, or assistive listening, etc. And with a press of a button, the ALT 3-4 mix can be assigned to the Main output-which means ALT 3-4 can act very much like a "mixer within a mixer." For instance, you could assign the backup vocals to the ALT 3-4 bus and then use the CTL ROOM/SUBMIX fader to add them back into the main mix. Now on
