QSC TouchMix mixers are designed for
musicians, production professionals and live
performance venues that need the power
and capability of a large “concert” mixing
console in a compact, affordable and easy
to use form. TouchMix-8 and TouchMix-16
mixers have the functionality to satisfy
demanding professionals combined with a
range of features and functions that help the
less experienced user achieve quality results.

A breakthrough in innovation and digital
mixer design, TouchMix is the result of a
remarkable collaboration between QSC and
industry icons Greg Mackie and Peter Watts
(M&W Pro Audio Ltd.) TouchMix not only
resets the bar for performance and value,
but also redefines the user experience for
both professionals and novices alike.

“Big Mixer” Features and Specifications

Professional live sound reinforcement
engineers have come to expect functionality
such as four bands of fully parametric
EQ, variable high and low-pass filters,
compressors and gates on every channel.
They rely on multiple, high quality digital
effects. They expect equalization, limiting and
delay on all the outputs as well as the control
that DCA and mute groups provide. And
they expect pristine audio quality throughout
the audio path of the mixer, including low­distortion, class-A microphone preamps and
professional grade converters for all inputs
and outputs. With TouchMix’s, “no asterisk”
specifications, there are no tradeoffs – just
great performance.

Fast, Professional Results for Everyone

Digital cameras have ‘point and shoot’
features to help casual users achieve results
approaching those of skilled photographers.
At the same time, these cameras offer all the
features an advanced photographer wants.
With this in mind, the TouchMix design team
set out to create a mixer that does for live
sound what ‘point and shoot’ technology
has done for photography. Many TouchMix
functions such as EQ, compressors, gates
and limiters offer you a choice of Advanced
Mode operation that offers total control over
all parameters or Simple Mode that provides
only the most essential controls.

There’s also a comprehensive library of
Channel Presets. These are not typical,
generic, one-size-fits-all settings developed
in a recording studio. Experienced, live

sound engineers spent months working
with musicians, all manner of instruments,
popular microphones and pickups and
multiple speaker systems to develop a library
of settings that are specifically designed for
live sound reinforcement. In addition, the
onboard Effects Wizard guides you through
the selection and assignment of appropriate
effects while the Gain Wizard continuously
monitors and displays input clipping, allowing
you to focus on your performance. The
TouchMix also comes with a comprehensive
library of complete Mixer Scenes to get
you started. User scenes may be stored or
recalled from either internal or USB memory
and at the user’s option, scenes may include
or omit main and auxiliary mix levels.

Compact and Complete

TouchMix mixers are completely self­contained. They require no external PC or
video display. The graphic, color touch-
screen provides display of and access to
mix parameters. Mixer parameters may be
adjusted on the screen or via the physical
rotary encoder. Frequently used functions
can be accessed or controlled using hardware
buttons.

TouchMix may also be controlled remotely by
means of Wi-Fi connection to wireless iOS
devices. The available Remote Control App
controls all mixer parameters and the mixer
includes a WiFi adapter that creates the
network connection between the mixer and
the hand-held device. No external network
hardware is required.

To sound their best, musicians need to hear
themselves. With four (TouchMix-8) or ten
(TouchMix-16) auxiliary output channels,
TouchMix has ample stage monitor mixing
capability. Both models have the ability
to drive multiple, wired stereo in-ear

monitors directly.

TouchMix is also capable of direct recording
to an external USB hard drive – no

external computer is required. All inputs plus
a stereo mix are created in 32-bitbroadcast
wave format. Tracks can also be played back
on the mixer or imported into most DAW
software for over-dubs and post production.

Finally, the TouchMix comes complete with
its own padded carrying case, for transport
and protection. Wherever your music takes
you, the TouchMix will be there, ready to take
the stage to help you achieve the most ideal
sound for your audience.
