Experience the Power of a Completely Digital Mix System

Once you've mixed on the Roland Systems Group M-480 digital console for the RSS V-Mix system, you'll never want to go back to an analog system. The M-480 gives you the best features of RSS's acclaimed M-400 digital console like powerful effects processing, intuitive layout, and easy saving and recall of your mix setups. The M-480 digital console adds even more outstanding functionality for larger productions and an improved mix bus engine for amazing sound quality and flexibility.



The RSS M-480 digital console for V-Mix systems gives you the features you need for larger productions and venues. With a configurable delay available on each input and output channel, you'll be able to align your signals on even the most complicated playback systems with maximum precision. And because you can easily store and recall all of your mix settings on the M-480, your custom delay settings can be pulled up and edited instantly if something changes in the playback system.

To add even more power to the already impressive M-480, you're able to add a second M-480 console for a total of 96 channels as well as synchronized buses! Imagine having the mixing and routing capabilities of a large-format 96-channel console in two compact units - that's powerful! This is a very functional feature for churches and schools. Two consoles can be used in different rooms for different purposes, then combined when needed for larger productions. All you'll need is one single RSS Reac cable to connect the two consoles, and you're ready to mix!

Because this is a digital system, you'll enjoy all the benefits digital systems offer. Topping that list is the ability to change scenes instantly from event to event. Whether you're a busy house of worship with multiple services, rehearsals, performances, and events happening week to week, or you're a touring professional who wants the perfect layout to control each song, you need a digital console to manage all of your needs - instantly. Push a button to call up a scene and you'll see the faders, effects, routing, and parameters return exactly where you had them. The M-480 can handle 300 different scenes, giving you plenty of room to grow. You can also conveniently load and save your setups using PC software.

You want flexible? The updated M-480 supports the M-48 live personal mixer and even supports LCR (Left-Center-Right) sound system setups. You also get six cool vintage effects, a real-time analyzer, and improved parametric EQ functionality. And for powerful live recording and playback, add the RSS R-1000 48-track recorder/player for a complete live recording system! The RSS M-480 digital console is an amazing digital mixing center with unprecedented features, with an intuitive layout that's easier to use than you could ever imagine.
