Frequently Asked Questions
WiFi performance is adequate for basic control, but expect occasional dropouts with many devices or interference from other wireless signals.
While the XR16 has internal effects, you can route signals through the aux sends to use external effects, but there's no direct integration or control.
The noise floor is respectable for the price point, but not as silent as more expensive mixers—it's acceptable for most live sound applications.
