Additional channel strip features include unbalanced inserts, input trim control and individual LEDs. There’s also a sweet sounding 3-band EQ with sweepable midrange and 100Hz low cut filters to reduce low-end rumble. Extra Extra! There are some way cool extras that make the Mackie CFX16.mkll an even greater value. A handy Break Switch allows you to mute all the channels in one fell swoop and activates whatever sound source (iPod/Mp3 player) you have plugged into the Tape inputs.

Essential parameter controls allow you to tweak your chosen effect to your liking enabling further enhancement to your overall signal output. You can connect a footswitch to toggle the effects on or off. You can shape the overall output of the CFX.mkll using the 9-band stereo graphic EQ, also effective for fighting feedback.
