routed to any desired DAW, including Pro Tools

be brought back straight into a channel strip for easy mix
integration. FireWire aggregation allows multiple Onyx 1220i

Each mono channel has an Onyx mic preamp, phantom
power, an input Gain control with 60 dB of gain, a sharp 18
dB/octave, 75 Hz Low Cut filter, Pan, Mute, Solo, a 60mm
fader and a Channel Insert jack for connecting an external
processor.
There are built-in DIs on the first two channels for direct

section for easy communication with band members on
stage or during recording sessions.
Other features include a stereo tape input and output, a
1/4-inch stereo headphone jack, stereo 12-segment LED
meters and XLR and TRS stereo output jacks.
The Control Room/Phones section has its own level control,
outputs and input matrix for selecting any combination of
Main Mix, Tape In and Alt 3-4.
