Professional analog mixing with modern recording
The Onyx24 combines Mackie's renowned analog mixer design with powerful digital recording capabilities. Featuring 24 channels, premium analog circuitry, and award-winning Onyx microphone preamps, it delivers the warmth, clarity, and reliability demanded by musicians, engineers, venues, and content creators alike.
Whether you're mixing a live performance, recording a band, producing content, or managing audio for events, the Onyx24 provides the tools you need in a streamlined and intuitive format.
18 award-winning Onyx microphone preamps
At the heart of the mixer are 18 Onyx microphone preamps, each delivering up to 60dB of gain with exceptionally low noise and excellent headroom. Combined with premium analog circuitry and switchable low-cut filters, they provide pristine audio capture for microphones, instruments, and line-level sources.
Dedicated Hi-Z inputs allow guitars, basses, and other high-impedance instruments to connect directly, preserving detail and dynamics without requiring additional hardware.
Perkins EQ and powerful DSP effects
Shape your sound with Mackie's renowned Perkins British-style three-band EQ. Featuring a sweepable midrange and musical response, it makes it easy to enhance vocals, instruments, and full mixes with precision.
The integrated digital effects engine adds professional processing including reverb, delay, chorus, and more. Six user preset locations allow you to save and instantly recall your favourite effects settings whenever needed.
24-track USB recording and SD card capture
The Onyx24 makes recording simple. Connect directly to a Mac or PC via USB and capture up to 24 channels plus a stereo return at up to 24-bit/96kHz resolution. This allows every channel to be recorded separately for detailed editing and mixing later.
For standalone operation, stereo recordings can also be captured directly to an SD card without requiring a computer, making the mixer ideal for live recording and portable production setups.
Flexible routing and Bluetooth streaming
Designed to adapt to a wide variety of workflows, the Onyx24 offers flexible routing options for live sound, recording, monitoring, and playback. USB returns can be assigned directly to channels, while Bluetooth connectivity allows wireless audio streaming from compatible devices.
Bluetooth audio can be routed to both the main mix and auxiliary outputs, providing convenient playback options for performances, rehearsals, and presentations.
Built for the stage and studio
Constructed around a robust steel chassis, the Onyx24 is built to withstand demanding use in both fixed installations and mobile applications. Backlit controls, comprehensive metering, and an intuitive colour display provide clear visual feedback, helping you stay in control even in low-light environments.
The combination of rugged construction, powerful processing, and flexible connectivity makes the Onyx24 a dependable solution for professional audio production.
