The Samson MDR6 shall be a 6 input, stereo output mixer.
It shall have 2 mic channels with trim controls, HF, MF,
and LF equalizer controls, 1 aux send, pan control and a
60mm fader. It shall have 2 mic/line stereo channels with
all the same controls as the mic channels except for the trim
control. 60mm left and right output faders will be available.
Each channel shall have a REC button which when pushed
(along with the Hard Disk button in the master section)
allows that channel’s output to be sent through the 2TK
output and to a computer for recording without getting a
loop. A mono output with level control shall be provided. A
control room and headphone output and level control shall
also be provided. The MDR6 uses an external power supply.
