  • Compact in size, just 3.75 inches (95 mm) square and 1.1 inches (28 mm) tall
  • One of GO:MIXER’s line-level inputs offers a selectable Center Cancel function, which reduces the volume of the main vocal in a music track that’s playing through the input. This is a great feature for singers, allowing them to create karaoke-style tracks on the fly.
