With any source, the signal presence light shines green so you can turn up the gain until it flashes red and then back off to keep it in the green to avoid distortion. Use the XLR connectivity for mics and if you use the condenser sort, there is 48V phantom power switching available too. The front panel kicks off with the gain controls for both channels with line/high impedance switching – the latter option being for mainly for guitars – that works on the 1/4” jack inputs. It’s all very tidy, leaving the cable sprawl at the rear, apart from the 1/4” headphone socket on the front. There’s also a USB port here, as the unit is bus powered from the host computer. The back panel is home to a pair of balanced audio inputs on combo XLR/TRS jack connectors, with the monitor output on just balanced TRS jack sockets. The weight of the Onyx Blackjack is an advantage too, at 800g it certainly doesn’t be skate around the desk on the whim of a springy cable. Two pairs of ADAT optical con- sional audio interface for live or studio analog or digital nectors are included, which provide up to 16 channels audio recording. Its all-metal casing keeps it well-shielded and it has decent-sized knobs and switches on the control surface that tell you at a glance what’s what. Introduction tors so the Onyx 1200F can be placed in a daisy-chain Thank you for choosing a Mackie Onyx 1200F profes- FireWire connection. Now, this model isn’t the cheapest of its kind and there’s no MIDI or effects on-board either, but it’s no flimsy plastic box that will fizz with interference as soon it you place it near a laptop. Now owned by Loud Technologies, Mackie’s design ethic still remains evident in the Onyx Blackjack dual channel USB audio interface.
