A compact analog summing powerhouse with API's signature sound.

The API ASM164 is a 16-channel analog summing mixer that brings the company's legendary analog summing performance to your professional studio in a convenient 19" rackmount format.

With comprehensive rear panel connections offering balanced inputs/outputs and DB-25 connectors, the ASM164 seamlessly integrates into your existing studio setup. Flexible routing lets you assign each channel to the two stereo program busses (Mix-A and Mix-B) for versatile summing workflows.
