This cutting-edge digital mixer series is designed to offer comprehensive solutions for efficient and intuitive recording and mixing, perfect for a variety of professional settings such as small concert venues, tour PA systems, and stage sound management.

The new Series III SE promises top-notch recording features, remote mixing capabilities, and is Milan certified for seamless integration with other AVB network devices. The series will launch with three models: SE 16, SE 24, and SE 32, expected to hit the Japanese market in September 2025.

Key Features of StudioLive Series III SE

Milan Certification & AVB Network Compatibility

The StudioLive Series III SE incorporates Milan certification, ensuring low-latency and time-aligned audio networks. This feature guarantees interconnectivity with various devices from different manufacturers, allowing for effortless audio signal routing with remarkable reliability.

FlexMix Technology

FlexMix innovation enables flexible configurations for AUX, sub-groups, and matrix mixes. Users can create over 20 different routing configurations, making it more adaptable than ever for individual sound engineering needs.

Versatile Routing Options

With the capacity to assign four types of input sources—analog, network, USB, and SD card—to any channel, the StudioLive Series III SE allows users to switch settings instantly at the press of a button.

Virtual Soundcheck Feature

The mixer also supports Virtual Soundcheck through Capture software, enabling users to utilize past recordings for sound checks or mix recreations. Instant channel naming and digital return functionalities can be managed with ease.

Integrated 64x64 Channel USB Audio Interface

This newest model includes a dual-directional 64x64 USB audio interface that ensures seamless recording and routing of channels with minimal disruption during performances, allowing creators to effortlessly capture their music while performing.

Metro Remote Access
