Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The XR18 is a remarkably capable digital mixer, especially considering its price point. It's a great solution for bands, small venues, or anyone needing a flexible and remotely controllable mixing console. The remote control is a real time-saver, though the plastic build and somewhat dated interface are compromises you accept for the value.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Wi-Fi connection is generally stable, but it's best to use a dedicated router and avoid interference from other devices for optimal performance.
Yes, the XR18 functions as a multi-channel USB audio interface, but latency can be a factor depending on your computer’s processing power.
While it’s technically possible to chain multiple Ultranet nodes, you'll likely encounter latency and bandwidth issues beyond 4-6 speakers for reliable performance.
