Designed for live sound engineers, touring bands, and studio creators alike, the MR18 packs legendary Midas performance into a compact rackmount unit that delivers massive power wherever your work takes you.

Features:
- Legendary Midas Pro Preamps: Equipped with 16 Midas Pro microphone preamplifiers, the MR18 delivers ultra-clean gain, exceptional clarity, and incredibly low distortion. These preamps are trusted worldwide for both live sound and studio recording, ensuring every vocal and instrument is captured with stunning accuracy.
- Powerful 40-bit Floating-Point DSP: The MR18’s advanced DSP engine provides an impressive 112dB dynamic range, allowing precise audio processing with exceptional headroom. This architecture ensures consistent, professional sound even in demanding live environments.
- Dugan-Style Auto Mixing: One of the standout features, auto mixing intelligently manages microphone levels in real time. It automatically reduces unused mic gain and balances active channels, making it ideal for conferences, panels, houses of worship, and multi-vocal performances.
- Flexible DSP for Effects, EQ, and Dynamics: With four independent effects processors onboard, the MR18 offers access to studio-grade reverbs, delays, modulation effects, and more. Every channel, aux bus, and the stereo master benefit from full dynamics processing, along with your choice of 6-band parametric or 31-band graphic EQs—eliminating the need for external processors.
- Wireless, Ethernet, and MIDI Control: Take full control of your mix using free iOS and Android apps, or connect via Ethernet to Mac, Windows, or Linux systems. Prefer physical faders? Simply connect a MIDI or USB control surface and mix your way with tactile precision.
- Advanced Monitoring and Recording Options: Ultranet connectivity allows seamless integration with Behringer Powerplay P16 personal monitoring systems, giving musicians complete control over their own monitor mixes. On top of that, the MR18 functions as a full 18-channel USB audio interface, making it perfect for multitrack recording in both live and studio settings.
- Compact Rackmount Design: All of this power fits neatly into a standard 19" rack, making the MR18 incredibly easy to transport while replacing racks full of outboard gear.
