New for 2003, Crate Audio offers the improved CSX Series of mixers.

Each channel has balanced XLR, 1/4" line in and insert jacks, and includes individual gain controls, pad switch and peak LEDs. Each mic channel features a 3 band EQ with sweepable mid range, while the stereo channels feature a 4 band EQ. Also included are four auxes per channel with two labeled for aux and two for effects.

New for 2003, every CSX mixer features a mute switch with indicator light on every channel. In addition, each channel features pan, PFL, and 100 mm faders for maximum control and versatility. The last two channels on the CSX8 and the last four channels on the CSX12 and CSX16 perform dual function with both mic and stereo 1/4" inputs. The Crate CSX Mixers truly provide the perfect mix of functionality and form.

The CSX Master section includes a wide array of patching and level options for Aux 1-4, a wide variety of metering options, selectable input voltage, Tape in and out level, switchable phantom power (+48V) with indicator light, and a switchable BNC light. All faders are 100mm rather than 60mm as on many boards in the same class.
