Mackie 2404-VLZ4

The 24-channel Mackie 2404-VLZ4 mixer combines VLZ4 low-noise, high-headroom technology with increased channel count and superior processing that's perfect for real-world live gigs.

The Mackie 2404-VLZ4 features 20 XDR2 mic channels, each with 3-band, sweepable mid EQ, offering more clean and useable gain than the competition. Create great-sounding, professional mixes using dedicated channel and subgroup compression, dual RMFX+ effects processors and true 4-bus architecture. You can even connect to your laptop to record the show, stream house music or use your favorite plug-in live using the built-in 4x2 USB interface.

Mackie 2404-VLZ4 features 3-band EQ on all channels, with a sweepable mid on channels 1-20. The XDR2 mic preamps offer incredibly low noise, with individual mic pre THD below 0.0007%, and overall mixer THD less than 0.0025%, with 60dB of available gain per channel.

Dual RMFX+ effects processors bring gig-ready, useable effects to your mixes, including an extremely useful tap function for delay. The 2404-VLZ4 features eight dedicated in-line compressors, delivering simple, sweet dynamic control with the single twist of a knob. Use the compressors on channels 17/20 for your most important vocals and instruments.

The 2404-VLZ3 has a 4x2 built-in 24-bit, 48 kHz USB interface that's ideal for both live and studio recording. VLZ4 4-Bus mixers offer the best footprint-to-channel count ratio available, delivering more features in less square footage. And in true Mackie tradition, the 2404-VLZ4 is "Built-Like-A-Tank".
