Midas MDS-MR18 Description

The Midas MDS-MR18 takes core technology from the renowned Midas M32 and delivers it in a compact, stage-friendly form factor. Its rugged stage box design allows it to be rack-mounted or positioned discreetly on stage or in a studio. Ideal for musicians, engineers, and producers who need high-quality audio control on the go, the MR18 offers wireless operation via tablet, so you can mix from anywhere in the room. At the heart of the MR18 are 16 Midas PRO preamps—celebrated for their clarity, warmth, and detail. These are the same preamps found in flagship Midas consoles, giving you studio-grade performance in a portable mixer. Each input is a Neutrik combo jack with locking latches, ensuring secure and professional connections for live or recording environments. This mixer also features an 18x18 bidirectional USB 2.0 audio interface, ideal for multitrack recording and playback. Whether you're running a full live show or capturing sessions in the studio, the MR18 is ready to handle your audio routing needs with precision. With MIDI I/O, integrated WiFi, and support for free control apps on iOS, Android, and PC, the MR18 delivers unmatched flexibility for its size and price. Performers can control their own monitor mixes while engineers walk the venue making real-time adjustments—all without being tethered to a mixing console.
