Product Detail
For every gig, just one box! The Mackie SHOWBOX is a battery-powered live performance rig that effortlessly delivers great live sound anywhere. It's a portable PA system, an acoustic guitar amp, a 6-channel mixer, an effects rack, and a USB-C interface all rolled into one. With a 400W amp, custom drivers, and an included battery, it can provide up to 12 hours of powerful live sound. It has 6 input channels for mics and instruments, making it a perfect solution for singers, guitarists, keyboardists, and more. Connect with your audience no matter where they are. Simplify your live setup and record with an SD card, stream via USB-C, or use Bluetooth to play backing tracks. It has switchable 'PA' and 'amp' voicing modes, internal effects for guitar and vocals, an FX loop for pedals, and settings for indoor and outdoor use, replacing your amp and PA system and opening up new creative options. It also features interactive performance tools like a built - in tuner and looper accessible from the breakaway controller, and user snapshots for quick recall of favorite settings. The breakaway mix control puts everything at your fingertips. You can insert separate effects on each of the four mic and instrument channels and use two additional effects engines for time - based effects. Plus, it offers precise tone - shaping tools beyond typical portable PA speakers.
Using the Mackie SHOWBOX is a breeze. First, charge the battery if it's not already full. You can use it right out of the box after that. Connect your mics and instruments to the 6 input channels. To set the sound to your liking, use the breakaway mix control. You can adjust levels, effects, and tone shaping easily. For guitar and vocals, switch between 'PA' and 'amp' voicing modes as needed. Use the built - in tuner to tune your guitar quickly and the looper to create loops for more dynamic performances. When it comes to recording, just insert an SD card. You can also stream via USB - C or play backing tracks via Bluetooth. As for storage, slide the breakaway controller into the SHOWBOX. For maintenance, keep it clean and dry. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you're not using it for a long time, store the battery at around 50% charge to keep it in good condition.
