MORE INFORMATION
FEATURES
Mackie’s MS1202-VLZis the updated, upgradedversion of our classic 12-channel compact mic/linemixer. The original MS1202earned a seemingly un-beatable reputation as thesmall
mixer withthe best price/fea-
tures ratio, and for being assolid as a rock. The MS1202-VLZ adds more features andflexibility to what was al-ready one formidable prod-uct.
That’s why New MediaMagazine gave the MS1202-VLZ its Hyper Award for BestAudio Hardware:
“The new 1202-VLZmixer is the pinnacle ofMackie’s legendary abilityto pack great sonic perfor-mance, durability and lotsof features into a small sizefor a low cost. …[It] is thehottest performer we’veever seen…”
– New Media,January 1996

Features you want.Low noise and high
headroom are importantfor clear, dynamic mixes.No matter what yourapplication, the MS1202-VLZ’s Very Low Impedancearchitecture – based onthat of our large 8•Busconsoles – delivers pro-
fessional sound.For the same
reasons, the micpreamps
Mackieuses arestudio-grade, lownoise/high-headroom
inputs. Plus, 48Vphantom power gives youfull compatibility with yourfavorite microphones– dynamic or condenser.
To rid your mics of windnoise and mic thumps, eachof the four mic channels hasa Low Cut Filter that elimi-nates subsonic noise. Loshelving EQ can now beused for the upper low fre-quencies, instead of as amakeshift low frequencycut-off.
To make level-settingsimple, the MS1202-VLZhas PFL Solo on everychannel. That, along withthe Level Set Marker at the1202’s ultra-sensitive L/RLEDs, lets you take advan-tage of our VLZ design andmaximize headroom.
Don’t have room for anoutboard equalizer? The
®
MS1202-VLZ’s musical3-band EQ will take care ofit. We chose 12kHz, 2.5kHzand 80Hz to make our EQmore practical to the needsof today’s sound engineers– not those of thirty years ago.
Flexibility you need.The MS1202-VLZ is loadedwith flexible mixdown andmonitor routing possibilities.
Mute/Alt 3-4 is a dual-purpose feature: Normally,the mute button on eachchannel acts that way – as amute. But when the Alt 3-4outputs are in use, the buttonacts as a router to the 3-4stereo bus. You can createtwo stereo pairs for 4-trackrecording or for an extramonitor or cry room mix.
EFX to Monitor lets youblend reverb or other effectsback into a monitor mix viaAux Send 1.
Aux 1’s Pre/Post switchlets you set it for pre-fader/post-EQ use – greatfor stage monitor mixes, orpost-fader/post-EQ, whichis handy for studio effects.It also has a level controlfor added flexibility.
Control Room/Phoneshas its own level controland separate outputs, al-lowing you to select anycombination of Main Mix,Tape In and Alt 3-4 so youcan create custom head-phone mixes, monitor tapelevels, and more. A sepa-rate switch routes thismulti-source signal backinto the Main Mix.
Balanced XLR Main Out-puts – which are switch-able to mic or line level –make it easy to use theMS1202-VLZ with profes-sional audio and videoequipment. Main outputsare also available at 1/4”jacks. And of course, all the
mixer’s inputs and outputsare balanced (except chan-nel inserts, phones andRCA jacks). You can alsouse unbalanced cables ifneed be.
Durable and solid.Greg Mackie designed theMicroSeries 1202-VLZ thesame way he designs everyMackie mixer: to stand upto non-stop, 24 hour-a-dayprofessional duty. In broad-cast and PA applications, TVand radio production stu-dios, video post suites –wherever a high qualitycompact mixer is desired.
Sealed, co-molded rotarycontrols keep the MS1202-VLZfree from airborne dust andcontamination better thanthe open-frame phenolicpots others use. Mackie’spots provide minimal con-tact noise, and their design– along with the energy-absorbing way they’remounted to the mixer –helps prevent impactdamage.
Along with its steel chas-sis and thru-hole-plated
fiberglass circuit boards, theMicroSeries 1202-VLZ alsofeatures a built-in powersupply instead of a “wallwart.” Not only does thiseliminate the inevitablehassles of dealing with ex-ternal power supplies, italso reduces hum. The tinytransformers in wall wartswaste more energy, andcan introduce additionalhum into the mix. Not sowith our built-in powersupply. It introduces far lessnoise – and far less trouble.
RFI protection is imple-mented with circuitry andconstruction that makesthe MS1202-VLZ virtuallyimpervious to RF interfer-ence in high-energyenvironments.
Any place, any time,anywhere.
The MS1202-VLZ can beused continuously in allkinds of places by all kindsof people: TV and radiostations, video productionhouses, touring soundcompanies, big-studioengineers and corporate
