Product Overview
The MZ-223A from TASCAM is a powerful multi-channel, multi-zone mixer housed in a compact 2U form factor. It provides simultaneous and versatile multi-zone audio routing, mixing, and segregation of several audio sources. The source content can include music, spoken word (microphone), phonograph, and more, with all easily controlled via familiar sliders and assignment controls located on the front panel. Engineered for easy integration into virtually any system, the unit is great for small-format install applications such as moderate sized hotels, restaurants, meeting rooms, schools, or any situation that demands independently-routed audio.
Applications
Moderate-sized hotels • Restaurants • Meeting rooms • Schools • More
