Focusrite Liquid Mix

With over 60 emulations of vintage compressors and equalizers, could Focusrite’s Liquid Mix revolutionise software mixing as we know it? Mark Cousins goes with the flow...

Price: £499.00
Manufacturer: Focusrite
Website: http://www.focusrite.com


Ever since Focusrite released Liquid Channel (reviewed in Issue 23), the world has waited with baited breath to see whether more products featuring the company’s Liquid technology would emerge. What excited people so much about the Liquid Channel was the unique pairing of Focusrite’s proven expertise in mic preamp design coupled with Sintefex’s cutting-edge experiments in dynamic convolution, making the Liquid Channel a real ‘audio chameleon’. Surely, it was only a matter of time before Focusrite released a lite version of Liquid Channel, omitting the preamps (of little use during mixing) and instead focusing on the unit’s talents in the areas of compression and EQ?
