The Sound of Neve Console Mixing, Now Within Reach.
With the award-winning 8816 Summing Mixer, the legendary sound of Neve becomes

Burnley, England, the 8816 is a true, albeit diminutive, Neve mixer.

in professional computer-based studios
The 8816 provides sixteen input channels with +15dB gain, level, pan, cut/solo and
cue controls. The unit’s four monitor sources, two speaker outs, independent monitor

console, with two Carnhill transformers on the stereo bus output. In the words of Hugh
Robjohns at Sound on Sound, “The [8816] sounds fabulous and sublime. Its huge
headroom and the classic transformer mixing topology endow the mix with an effortlessly
silky quality that just screams ‘analogue’ at the listener.”
• Exclusive “Stereo Width Control”
For those requiring digital output, the 8816’s analog-to-digital conversion option supports
standard sample rates to 192kHz. The unit can also be paired with the 8804 Fader Pack
for more control.
