Why Rental Companies Choose the QSC TouchMix-16 Pro
For rental companies, gear must be reliable, easy to deploy, and simple for clients to operate. The QSC TouchMix-16 Pro digital mixer fits that brief perfectly. It packs a 16-channel digital console into a compact, road-ready chassis with a full-color touchscreen and built-in Wi-Fi for wireless control via tablet. That means your clients—from wedding bands to corporate AV teams—can walk in, connect, and mix without a steep learning curve.
Buying second hand makes financial sense. A pre-owned TouchMix-16 Pro from Acoustrade is fully tested, cleaned, and ready for rental duty at a fraction of the new price. You get professional features without tying up capital that could go toward expanding your inventory.
Key Features That Matter for Rentals
- 16 input channels (12 mic/line, 2 stereo line) with recallable presets—ideal for small bands, conferences, and houses of worship.
- Touchscreen interface with intuitive menus—reduces setup time and client support calls.
- Built-in Wi-Fi for wireless mixing from up to 10 tablets simultaneously (with the QSC app).
- Onboard effects and EQ—no need for outboard gear.
- Compact and lightweight—easy to transport and fit into tight booth spaces.
- USB multitrack recording—a value-add you can upsell to clients.
These features make the TouchMix-16 Pro a versatile workhorse for rental fleets serving events, clubs, and mobile productions.
What to Check When Buying Second Hand
When sourcing a used QSC TouchMix-16 Pro, work with a supplier that tests every unit. Acoustrade verifies:
- All input and output channels for signal integrity.
