The Rodec MX Modular Base is a fully customisable modular mixing console designed to bridge the gap between studio production and live performance, offering extensive flexibility, premium audio quality, and seamless integration with both digital and analogue workflows.
Modular Design for Maximum Flexibility
The MX Modular is built around a fully modular architecture, allowing users to tailor the console to specific needs, whether for recording, mixing, summing, live performance, or hybrid studio setups. It includes a powerful 18-input/18-output AD/DA converter, a dual digital FX engine, and a master section that ensures superior signal routing and control. The modular format enables the integration of high-end analogue processing while maintaining the ability to interface seamlessly with digital environments.
The signal processing section supports the 500-series format, with ten slots available for custom module configurations. Users can install Rodec’s own 500-series modules or choose from a wide range of third-party options, providing complete control over signal flow and sonic character. The innovative stereo backplane cassette system allows two mono slots to be converted into a stereo slot, supporting Rodec’s 100-series format. This system functions similarly to stacking plugins in a DAW, enabling advanced signal processing within an analogue domain.
Performance-Oriented Mixing Section
The MX Modular features an adaptable fader section, catering to diverse applications. It supports mono faders for precise control over individual sources, stereo faders optimised for instruments and DAW outputs, and specialised DJ-style faders for real-time performance adjustments. Each channel includes programmable mute and solo buttons, grouped into recallable scenes to facilitate seamless workflow transitions during live sets or recording sessions.
Advanced USB Audio Integration
The integrated 18-channel AD/DA converter delivers high-quality digital audio conversion, utilising premium ESS DACs and AKM ADCs to maintain pristine sound fidelity. The low-latency USB-C interface allows multi-channel audio streaming between the console and a computer, enabling direct recording, processing, and playback without requiring additional interfaces. This hybrid approach combines the warmth of analogue mixing with the precision of digital workflows.
Built-in Digital Effects and External Processing
The master section includes a dedicated digital FX module, featuring Rodec-engineered reverb and delay algorithms that are directly assignable to AUX 1 and AUX 2. The effects engine offers deep customisation, with 99 user preset slots for storing frequently used settings. The console also supports external processing via analogue AUX send/return connections, allowing integration with high-end outboard effects units.
Comprehensive Routing and Summing Capabilities
The MX Modular provides extensive analogue summing, featuring three dedicated summing buses, including the master bus. It supports up to 28 channels of summing, combining 18 USB or analogue inputs, an additional stereo external link input, two stereo AUX returns, and two stereo BUS returns. Each channel features an insert point for integrating external processing, while a stereo insert on the master bus allows for final-stage signal shaping before output.
High-End Audio Circuitry and Connectivity
The console includes direct outputs per channel, post-500 module, ensuring maximum flexibility for multi-track recording. The balanced master output employs discrete opamps and Lundahl transformers, delivering high headroom with a +28dBu output level. A dedicated monitor output and headphone section provide independent level control and cue/mix monitoring, essential for both studio work and live performance environments.
Expandable and Rack-Mountable
The MX Modular can be expanded by linking multiple units together, ensuring seamless integration between multiple consoles. Linked consoles synchronise audio, mute, and solo functions, making it possible to scale up for larger production setups. The compact 19-inch rack-mountable format ensures easy installation in both studio racks and live performance setups, offering professional-grade audio control in a flexible, space-efficient design.
A New Standard in Modular Mixing
The Rodec MX Modular redefines the concept of a performance-driven, customisable mixing console, combining analogue flexibility, high-end digital conversion, and deep integration with modern production tools. Designed for professionals who demand precision, versatility, and uncompromising sound quality, it stands as a cutting-edge solution for artists, producers, and engineers seeking the perfect balance between analogue warmth and digital efficiency.
