Algam Audio MR 1602 - rack montable 8 channels stereo mixer

Essential Information About the MR-1602 Rackable Analog Mixer from Algam Audio

• 8 stereo channels in a 1U rack: ideal for saving space in the studio, control room, or stage rack.


• Balanced 6.35mm Jack (TRS) inputs with a +4 dBu / -10 dBu selector per channel to accommodate both professional and consumer sources.


• Quick control per channel: level, balance, auxiliary send, and Mute for clear mixing without menus or complexity.


• Convenient routing: auxiliary bus, front panel headphone output, and LED level meter to keep control over levels.

A "sub-mixer" format designed for modern setups

The MR-1602 fits within the logic of compact analog mixers dedicated to sub-mixing: grouping multiple stereo sources and delivering them as a single clean stereo signal that is easy to manage. Its 1U rackable format makes it especially relevant whenever space optimization is needed, whether in a sound reinforcement rack, a studio rack, or a fixed installation.

With its 8 stereo channels, it meets the common needs of dense setups (keyboards, modules, players, monitors, stems), where the inputs available on a main console quickly become precious.

Who is the MR-1602 for?

This Algam Audio analog mixer is aimed at sound professionals, musicians, and technicians looking for a simple, robust, and immediately operational solution. It is perfectly suited for live sound reinforcement (in stage or monitor racks), recording (grouping stereo devices), or any configuration where multiple stereo signals need to be centralized without multiplying boxes.

Its "one function = one knob" approach facilitates quick adjustments: perfect when fast intervention is required, whether in rehearsal or performance, without getting lost in secondary functions.
