Overview

The QSC TouchMix-8 is a compact digital mixer that delivers studio-grade processing in a form factor sized for mobile musicians, houses of worship, and small-to-medium live venues. Its 12 full-function inputs—comprising 4 dedicated mic channels, 4 mic/line combo channels, 2 stereo line inputs, and a USB 2-track return—cover the needs of solo performers through small ensembles. Every input channel features a 4-band fully parametric EQ with variable high-pass and low-pass filters, plus onboard gate and compressor, giving engineers detailed control over each source without external processing racks.

The centerpiece of the TouchMix-8's workflow is its touchscreen interface, which replaces the layered menu structures common in compact digital mixers with a direct, visual mixing experience. Output routing includes main left/right on XLR, four aux sends on XLR for monitor feeds or effects, a stereo TRS output, and a cue/monitor output for the engineer. The TRS aux outputs can drive wired in-ear monitors directly, and QSC's companion iOS app lets performers adjust their own monitor mixes from stage. A padded carry bag is included, making the TouchMix-8 ready to travel from gig to gig right out of the box.
