Woodinville, WA – December 2015… The 31st annual NAMM Technical Excellence and Creativity (TEC) Awards will take place during the upcoming NAMM 2016 Show, and Mackie’s groundbreaking DL32R digital mixer with iPad™ control has been nominated in the category of Small Format Console Technology (Studio, Broadcast, Sound Reinforcement).
Since its introduction early in 2015, the DL32R has been embraced by professional and casual users in live sound and recording, including project studios, small and mid-sized clubs, houses of worship, boardrooms, and a wide range of other uses. Packed with features including on-board DSP and multitrack recording capabilities, the DL32R’s compact, three-space rack-mount design and full iPad control has made wireless mixing of FOH and monitors a reality for users everywhere.
Mackie Senior Product Manager Ben Olswang remarked, “We knew when we introduced the DL32R that it would change the way people looked at mixing. But people are telling us the DL32R has changed their lives. It’s enabled them to perform and create in spaces and in ways they had never even considered. We’re honored to be recognized by our pro audio community with this TEC Award nomination.”
