Explore the AMS Neve 8816 Summing Mixer >
An analog summing mixer is a great way to add some warmth and character into your digital mixes. By using analog outputs from your DAW interface, you can easily sum, process, and print stems of instrument, vocal, or effect groups. Vintage King offers a wide variety of summing and line mixers. Whereas some like the Rupert Neve Designs 5059 satellite offer simple functionality, some have feature advanced controls such as the Dangerous Music 2-BUS+.
What is a summing mixer? A summing mixer combines multiple audio signals into a single stereo or mono output. It allows for analog summing of tracks, which can enhance the warmth, depth, and overall quality of a mix, compared to purely digital mixing within a DAW.
Can I use a summing mixer with my digital audio workstation (DAW)? Yes, summing mixers are designed to work alongside your DAW. You send individual tracks or submixes from your DAW to the summing mixer, where they are combined into a single stereo output, which can then be recorded back into the DAW or sent to a mastering device.
What features should I look for in a summing mixer? Important features to consider include the number of input channels, high-quality analog components, options for panning and level control, integrated preamps, and additional features like inserts for external processing. Build quality and brand reputation are also key factors.
Summing and Line Mixers come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from two channels up to 30 channels, and can be expanded upon beyond that. A project studio or small mastering facility might be better off with the two channel options, where a larger music production facility might look into eight or sixteen channels to start out with. For music production, a 16 channel is a great choice, and gives you the ability to sum an entire mix into eight analog stereo stems. A summing example could be drums, percussion, bass, guitar, piano, vocals, and effects.
