Digital mixing systems just seem to get more flexible, more powerful and more affordable. And the notion of a rack-mount unit that’s remotely controlled via Wi-Fi (iOS and/or Android) makes a lot of sense in many applications, ranging from portable P.A. to church installations, live theater, corporate/industrial presentations — anywhere where a low-profile “invisible” console is just the ticket. Other advantages include eliminating the need for a house snake, with the mixer located near the stage and the FOH position being anywhere within Wi-Fi range. We checked out a number of current models and found a variety of products to meet anyone’s needs and budget.
