So Tough, it's Ready for the Disasters That Will Never Happen!
Go ahead and laugh, but haven't you ever noticed that most gear isn't built tough enough to handle the disasters that
will happen, let alone the disasters that might happen. Forget that! If you're running sound at that funky jungle-themed club, and the owner's 500 lb. pet silverback gorilla breaks out of his cage, climbs up to the rafters, and cannonballs right onto your 32-channel Mackie 3204-VLZ3 analog mixing console, the sound won't stop and the show will go on. That's right, in addition to sporting 28 outrageously clean XDR2 preamps, four flexible busses, and two killer effects engines, the lightweight 3204-VLZ3 is virtually disaster proof! Plus, you get compressors on four channels and each of the four busses, and every channel's got a 3-band EQ that's so easy to use, once the gorilla gets off your board, even he can dial in great sound. There's even USB connectivity so you can record your shows or run plug-ins live. So, when you need a large-format mixer that can stand up to anything, the choice is obvious - get a Mackie 3204-VLZ3!
