Housed in a rugged steel chassis, the MG12X CV can accommodate up to 12 inputs and offers a balanced stereo output. Featuring D-Pre discrete Class-A microphone preamplifiers for pristine sound, it includes AUX busses for the built-in SPX effect with 24 presets and another for monitoring. Four channels of single-knob compression are available.

The MG12X can accept XLR, 1/4” phone and RCA-type pin jack inputs, and offers XLR and phone outputs. The MG12X offers faders, and lit channel on/off switches for easy visual indication of settings. A footswitch input allows hands-free effect muting. The MG12X CV can be rackmounted with the optional RK-MG12 rackmount kit.
