USB Equipped - a virtual snake to your computer

The MIDAS VeniceU16 mixer sports a USB interface - this effectively gives you a digital audio snake to and from your Mac or PC, letting you realize the benefits of 3rd-party audio processing software. Record multitrack direct from VeniceU's digital direct outputs, use software-based FX processors driven from the aux sends or direct outs, and use plug-ins inserted on input channel USB send/returns. The MIDAS VeniceU16 gives you boatloads of flexibility.

Plays nice with software

The MIDAS VeniceU16's USB interface works with virtually all computer-based audio software. Right out-of-the-box, you get a free 60-day trial version of Propellerhead Reason. This powerful software suite includes multitrack recording, virtual racks packed with virtual instruments, processing, and effects, and even a superb software mixer you can patch in parallel with the analog VeniceU, giving you extensive external digital processing of each VeniceU input channel.

Enjoy legendary MIDAS build quality

At MIDAS, small channel counts doesn't equate to compromised performance or a lackluster feature set. From its road-tough build and top-drawer components to its unmistakable MIDAS sound, the VeniceF is all about pro quality. The frame is typical MIDAS steel section construction, designed for life on the road. Pots are metal-shafted, individually nutted to the steel fascia panel. And decked out in classic MIDAS livery, the MIDAS VeniceU16 looks as good as it's built.
