Lab.Gruppen CM82 Commercial Mixer

System installers in search of a quality commercial mixer with plenty of hands-on control will appreciate the Lab.Gruppen CM82, an 8-input, 2-output commercial mixer well suited for distributed audio in bars, restaurants, retail destinations, hotels, corporate, education, or other venues needing background music and/or a public-address system. The mixer offers a configurable priority muting function for background music override, great for making announcements.

The rear panel offers eight mic/line input channels that sum to mono. Channel A and B feature 5-pin Euroblock inputs with the priority function, while channels C-H offer balanced 3-pin Euroblock connectors and a pair of unbalanced RCA connectors (summed to mono) for connecting stereo sources such as players, phones, computers, and more. The RJ45 ports allow the mixer to be controlled via Ethernet from a broad range of remote-control options.

The front panel sports a power button, volume controls for each channel, and two master volume controls. Additionally, bass and treble controls are provided that allow you to dial in your best sound. The brushed, anodized aluminum enclosure is painted black with a steel bottom and can be used on a desktop or shelf thanks to the included four rubber feet and rackmount kit.
