USB delivers recording and performance possibilities
For a lightweight portable mixer, the Notepad-8FX certainly doesn't fall short where I/O is concerned. You get XLR combo jacks, 1/4" inputs, and RCA line inputs. On the output side, there's a pair of XLR outputs that feed the mains (perfect for PA systems and studio monitors), a 1/4" aux output, and a switchable main/aux headphone jack. USB turns the Notepad-8FX into even more of a mini-workhorse mixer, by providing a direct connection to your computer. This allows it to act as a 2-in/2-out USB audio interface, making it easy to record into your DAW. It also lets you stream audio from your computer, which you can use to play backing tracks or to inject your favorite virtual instruments right into the PA.
Sweeten your sound with Lexicon digital effects
In addition to handy 3-band EQs and 100Hz highpass filters on the two preamp-equipped channels, the Notepad-8FX offers you a selection of genuine Lexicon effects you can use to enhance your sound. These effects include a dimensional delay, a rich chorus, and a spacious reverb. Each effect features an adjustable parameter (length for the delay and reverb, intensity for the chorus) that you can tweak with just the twist of a knob, while tap tempo lets you keep your effects locked to the beat.
