Mini Rack Mixer w/o master section
Chandler Mini Mixer
The
Chandler Limited Mini Mixer is the culmination of Chandlers experience working with many types
of vintage, discrete circuits. The Mini Rack Mixer traces its lineage back to
several types of these amplifiers developed in the 60's and 70's that have been
Chandlerized for modern usage. Each Channel of the 16x2 Mixer is transformer
balanced and driven by the New Chandler Line Amp, which borrows from Chandlers other products
but has been redesigned for use in this mixer. The Mini Mixer is jam packed
with discrete amps and classic sound, 20 discrete amplifiers and 22 custom
wound transformers in the unit, and delivering all the punch and tone you need
for todays digital environment. In addition to the mixer section, the unit has
a full featured Control Room section including Talkback, Speaker switching,
Mute, Mono, Dim, External input (also used as an insert point), and separate
Control Room and Stereo Buss outs.

others are saying:
"My
first impression was that the difference that the Mini Rack Mixer makes is
bigger than the difference mastering makes... The Chandler Mini Rack Mixer will
inevitably get compared to all the new summing boxes, but because of its 100%
discrete design, Class-A line amps, transformer balanced I/O-and resulting
sound quality-it has no real competition short of a vintage Neve console." Mike
Caffrey, Tape Op #49 Sept/Oct 2005
"We
weren't necessarily in the market for another mixer, but we've learned that
it's definitely worthwhile to check out anything Chandler is coming out with! It's such a well
thought out and designed unit and like everything Chandler makes, it sounds awesome. It seems
everything sounds better when run through the Chandler line amps! It's incredibly versatile
and useful as a sidecar, line mixer or summing device plus it's great to have
as the control section for a Pro Tools room." - Billy
Bush, engineer for Garbage and Butch Vig
"...gotta
say it does sound amazing. It is a beautiful piece of gear........and made a
huge difference as soon as I was able to split out multiple tracks and
recombine thru a proper stereo buss....it sounded warm and really fat...it made
my speakers come alive! my mix sounded clearer and the vocal had especially
nice detail...........Also, it's very easy to use...." - Joe

"I am
absolutely stunned by your mixer. It may be sacrilegious to say, but the Chandler has become my
preferred choice in virtually every instance that I have would normally desired
a vintage Neve console (in fact, I ditched the one I previously had). This
makes absolutely no sense to me, hence I would suggest that you have made some
sort of pact with Satan to fabricate such a thing. Heaven help you, but thanks
all the same for creating such a remarkable recording device." - Michael
