TheThe StudioLive® 24R digital mixer is four audio tools in two compact rackspaces. Use it as a standalone digital mixer with Universal remote mixing software. Pair it with your StudioLive Series III console mixer to use as a stage box or integrated monitor mixer. Connect it with EarMix 16M monitor mixers for the ultimate personal monitor system. Plug it into your studio computer, and you have a continuously bidirectional, 128-channel (64x64) USB audio interface with modeled vintage dynamics and EQ plug-ins on every input and bus. Whether used standalone or as part of a complete audio system, no other rackmount digital mixer is as flexible or as powerful.

Inside the StudioLive 24R, the single-core PreSonus® FLEX DSP Engine powers 40 mixing channels, 22 mix buses, and 270 simultaneous processors, including 4 stereo effects and Fat Channel plug-in models on every input channel and mix bus. This is a true 24-channel digital mixer that can comfortably fit in any size rig. Simply connect it to a standard wireless router and control every mix parameter from your iPad®, Android™ tablet, or Windows® Touch computer using UC Surface. UC Surface was designed to make mixing on a touch screen as intuitive as mixing on faders.

An integrated 128-channel (64x64) audio interface lets you record with digitally recallable analog preamps and a complete rack of vintage EQ and dynamics processors for every channel and bus. Modeled after classic analog studio designs, these compressor and EQ plug-ins load both natively on the StudioLive 24R and inside Studio One®, providing the ultimate mixing and recording flexibility.
