Aten Podcast AI Audio Mixer 6-Channel

Aten UC8000-AT MicLIVE 6-Channel Podcast AI Audio Mixer

Mix and stream professional sounding podcasts to your computer or tablet with the UC8000 MicLIVE from ATEN, a 6-channel mixer and USB-C interface with AI-enhanced EQ, 8 jingle pads, automatic ducking, and 24 voice effects.

Designed to offer a streamlined and cost-effective broadcasting solution, the UC8000 is powered via USB and offers two combo XLR-1/4" inputs that can handle mic, line, or instrument inputs and feed preamps with up to 40 dB of gain. Phantom power (48V) can be engaged, if you're working with condenser microphones. An additional 3.5mm stereo input allows you to plug in a mobile device or additional mic. Two additional input channels are also provided via the USB port, allowing you to take guest calls via computer.

The unit's SmartEQ function takes the guesswork out of getting broadcast-ready voice quality by applying AI technology that dials in optimal EQ, compression, and gate settings for you, while the auto ducking feature will automatically lower your background music when dialog is present. With the UC8000 MicLIVE, you can worry less about technical issues and focus instead on creating great content and connecting with listeners.
