SCM268 4-Channel Microphone Mixer

Six Reasons the SCM268 Is The Right Choice:

Transformer. Transformer. Transformer. Transformer. Transformer. Transformer.

Another Reason: The Great Value

When you see the price attached to the SCM268 microphone mixer, you'd never guess that there are six transformers inside: four transformer balanced XLR microphone-level inputs, one transformer balanced XLR mic/line output, and one internal low stray field, toroidal power transformer.

Nor would you expect that the six transformers are just the start of what makes the SCM268 such a great value.

But, then again, it's a Shure. So you've come to expect this kind of commitment to affordable quality.

So Many Benefits. So Little Space

All those audio transformers provide protection from RF interference, prevent ground loops, and make the SCM268 exceptionally quiet. The internal toroidal power transformer means you no longer have to deal with that annoying "wall wart."

Add to this a rugged half-rack chassis -- with exceptionally solid rack mounting hardware -- and the SCM268 will easily fit into the widest range of smaller applications, such as:

Meeting rooms

Houses of worship

Broadcast

Educational paging and public address

Sound system rental

Part of Shure's Growing Line Of Quality "SCM" Mixers

For over a generation, Shure mixers, as well as a host of other Shure products, have been chosen for installed sound applications with unparalleled peace-of-mind. The SCM268 continues this tradition of quality performance at a great value. If you want half a dozen transformers in a half-rack space, choose the SCM268. You will be wholly satisfied.

The SCM268 fits into a half-rack space and includes all the necessary rack mounting hardware.
