Product Description

The individual tracks can then be digitally recorded, edited, removed, or mixed. This gives 100% control of audio properties to the engineer, and makes the Phonic Helix Board FireWire mixers ideal front ends to any audio workstation.

Customer Reviews
Great front end for your DAW
I was a little skeptical of this mixer at first. I have been using a Mackie 1604VLZPro for years. And honestly Phonic was nobody I had ever really heard of.
BUt I was kinda backed into a corner. I had just purchased a new computer and new studio software. And was still in need of an interface. I had a list of needs in said interface, like having enough in and outs. And some flexablity in how I can use them. And to top it off I only had $500 to do it with.
I looked at alot of other interaces and almost settled on something else. But I took a chance and it payed off big.
I love this mixer. Good clean mic pre's, with plenty of headroom. You can monitor with the built in effects but record the track dry.
It's not as sturdy as my old Makcie, but I don't intend to take it on the road either.
All in all a very solid mixer well worth every penny.
