Crest Audio X-Rack XR20

Range of rack-mount mixers

X-Rack Series rack mount mixers address a wide range of applications, including project studios, houses of worship, broadcasting, and all facets of live sound reinforcement.

Crest Audio´s console engineering group has drawn from decades of large and medium-format console design to create a compact, feature-filled rack mount mixer that meets of exceeds what all other rack mount mixers offer in terms of quality, reliability and flexibility, regardless of price. AES-suggested grounding procedures are followed, resulting in excellent rejection of RF interference and ground-related noise. X-Rack mixers exhibit less than +/- 30 degress of input to output phase shift, which is significantly better than most other consoles. XLR connectors are used on all primary inputs and outputs, while 1/4" TRS connectors are used for inserts, making it easy to interface with most professional audio gear.
