The perfect fit for any rack!

If you work in pro audio, you need the S8-3WAY! This 3-way mic splitter offers eight XLR inputs with three balanced outputs. This is perfect for live sound situations, as you can easily plug a single microphone or line-level signal into the S8-3WAY and feed the front of house mixer while sending an additional feed to the monitor mix station, and use the transformer balanced output to feed a recording deck. In any situation where you need to feed a single mic to multiple sources, the S8-3WAY will manage it!

ART S8-3WAY at at Glance:
  • Great for any number of pro audio applications
  • I/O and other features

Great for any number of pro audio applications
The S8-3WAY eight channel three way microphone splitter is ideal for live sound, recording and broadcast applications where microphone and XLR balanced line level input signals have to go to multiple mix locations. Typical uses would include sending 8 mic- or line-level direct signals through the S8-3WAY to a main Front-of-house mixer, with additional feeds going to a monitor mix station while transformer balanced isolated feeds are sent to remote recording desk or used for a broadcast feed.

I/O and other features
Each channel provides one XLR input, one XLR direct output with two additional transformer isolated XLR outputs for a total of 3 balanced outputs from each single XLR mic- or line-level input signal. The ART S8-3WAY features the same high-quality musical-sounding transformers used in the popular ART S8, and is housed in a standard 1U space rackmountable steel chassis designed for years of reliable operation. Since the S8-3WAY can solve so many problems, the rack ears are reversible, letting you choose which side of the S8-3WAY you want facing you in your rack.

ART S8-3WAY Features:
  • Passive interface
  • Eight high performance transformers
  • One direct and two transformer isolated outputs per channel
  • Balanced XLR input and 3 balanced XLR outputs per channel
  • Extremely wide frequency response
  • Extremely low voltage insertion loss
  • Reversible rack ears for added system flexibility
  • Perfect for live sound, permanent/fixed install, studio applications
Every rack needs an S8-3WAY from ART!

ART S8-3WAY

A GREAT affordable Microphone Splitter. Perfect for use with small consoles when only a few inputs are needed. I own two and have two Mackie onyx 1640i's One for FOH and 1 for Monitors. Works great no noise.

Great splitter

I bought this splitter after seeing another band use it to split off for their in-ear setup. Simple and straight forward. Wish that one of the rear outputs would also pass phantom power, but otherwise, I'll be adding another in the future.

Works great

We use this in a venue house setup to split signals for monitor/FOH and to send a signal to a group that are recording a radio show with their own equipment. Works perfectly.
