• Input signals can be inserted via 5 audio channels, each consisting of 2 sets of unbalanced RCA stereo pairs
• Channels 1 and 2 can be set to accommodate phono-level signals for use with a turntable
• The independent 3-zone outputs each have a combination of balanced professional XLR or RCA unbalanced configurations for long runs or connection to common residential power amplifiers or speakers
• Familiar volume sliders, routing switches/buttons, EQ knobs, and mute buttons for the microphones make the MZ-223 simple and fast to operate and set up
