DNA HLC 8 MK2 — 8-Channel Analog Mixer with USB, Bluetooth and DSP

DNA HLC 8 MK2 is a compact analog mixer for live performance, rehearsal rooms, and home recording. Eight mono channels plus a stereo channel handle microphones, instruments, and line sources for bands, DJs, podcasters, and event hosts. Built-in +48V phantom power, a USB audio interface with MP3 playback and recording, and Bluetooth streaming sit alongside a 32-bit DSP with 99 multieffects and a 7-band graphic master EQ.

What sets this model apart in the compact mixer category

Few mixers at this size combine a 32-bit DSP with 99 multieffects, a 7-band graphic master EQ, and a USB audio interface in one unit. The Bluetooth receiver shares the same 4-button module as the MP3 player, so wireless streaming doesn't occupy a separate input. Each channel strip carries a 60 mm fader, three-band EQ, FX and AUX sends, plus a PEAK LED and MUTE switch for fast troubleshooting mid-show.

Inputs and outputs — flexible I/O for live and studio use

Every mono channel accepts a balanced combo XLR/jack 6.3 mm connection, while the stereo channel adds RCA inputs. Main outputs run through balanced XLR plus unbalanced jack 6.3 mm, and a dedicated headphone jack 6.3 mm supports solo monitoring. The USB port doubles as a stereo audio interface and MP3 media reader.

\n
• Inputs include a combo XLR/Jack 6.3 mm (balanced), RCA, and Jack 6.3 mm, designed to accept microphones, instruments, and line sources on every channel.
\n
• Outputs: Balanced XLR, Jack 6.3 mm, Headphone Jack 6.3 mm — feed main PA, monitors, and personal cue mix simultaneously
\n
• USB audio interface streams 2-in / 2-out audio to any DAW with plug-and-play setup on Windows and macOS

EQ, effects, and dynamics control on every channel

The per-channel EQ covers HIGH at 12 kHz, MID at 2.5 kHz, and LOW at 80 Hz with ±15 dB of cut/boost for quick tonal shaping. A 7-band graphic EQ on the master bus (63 Hz / 150 Hz / 400 Hz / 1 kHz / 2.5 kHz / 6.4 kHz / 15 kHz) trims room problems. A 32-bit DSP engine delivers 99 multieffects including Hall, Room, Delay, Ping Pong, Echo, Echo Reverb, Karaoke, Pitch, Chorus, Tremolo, Flange, and Auto Tune.

\n
• Channel EQ provides HIGH, MID, and LOW settings with ±15 dB for quick tonal shaping for vocals, guitars, and keys.
\n
• Master graphic EQ: 7-band, ±12 dB — corrects room modes and shapes the final mix
\n
• DSP multieffects — 32-bit engine with 99 presets covering reverb, delay, chorus, and Auto Tune

Right for bands, podcasters, DJs, and small venues

This mixer is the right choice for musicians, podcasters, and event hosts who need an all-in-one analog front-end with USB recording and Bluetooth streaming. Solo performers can run vocals, a guitar, and a backing track through the same console, while small bands get eight mic inputs for drums, bass, keys, and vocals without outboard preamps. Mobile DJs benefit from the Bluetooth receiver and MP3 player for set breaks, and conference hosts can drive a small PA straight from the main outputs.
