Using high quality components, the PM8 merges up to eight analog channels into a clean and clear stereo pair, with all the sonic depth and dynamics intact. If your software is not cutting it, just use it for what its best at multi-tracking! Leave the merging of the final stereo mix to the PM8. And if you need more channels just hook up another PM8! As with all passive mixing devices, passively attenuating the signals will lead to a drop in the main mix output level. The PM8 offers a transparant active gain make-up stage (this requires the unit to be connected to mains power). If you do not need the make-up gain, or would like to use your own external make-up gain unit/preamplifer, you do not need to connect mains power to the PM8. The audio path will remain fully passive from input to output.
