Use Stereo SD to record your performances without a computer

Audio professionals all around here agree that the AR12c is absolutely perfect for performers who regularly gig at small venues. The mixer isn’t just compact and perfectly portable, it’s easy to set up and offers performers the option to record their performances onboard the mixer. You read that right. You can record your live performances without the need for any external hardware. So if you’re battle testing your newest stand-up routine, performing high-octane sets, or performing interviews, the AR12c will store it all for easy retrieval. This mixer supports SD and SDHC formats up to 32GB in size.

Get more out of your mixer with Super Channel

Super Channel is a completely unique concept that takes this mixer to the next level. Super Channel easily handles four stereo sources at once and can integrate your consumer devices into the mix. It has inputs for RCA, 1/8″ stereo, and Bluetooth 5.0. This lets you play stereo audio from the onboard SD recorder or from a USB-connected Mac or Windows PC. And between acts at the venue, you can stream music wirelessly with Bluetooth 5.0 technology. With you at the controls, there’s really nothing that Super Channel can’t do.

Superior signal processing with StudioLive’s channel strips

The channel strips on the StudioLive AR12c are built to help you create your best recordings to date. On the mono channels, the 3-band quasi-parametric EQ has a sweepable mid-band. Each stereo channel has a 3-band semi-parametric EQ and a mic/line boost for low-level input sources and consumer devices. What’s more, each channel is equipped with a highpass filter. The AR12c has an onboard stereo effects processor with 16 presets, a dedicated send and return, and a bypass footswitch jack. You can apply the effects to your signal in real-time with no annoying latency issues.

Includes powerful software effects for home recording

In addition to its impressive hardware capabilities, the PreSonus StudioLive AR12c also includes all the software you need to record with your computer via USB-C. It includes Capture live-recording software and Studio One Artist production software. The AR12c is capable of recording every channel plus the main mix in crystal clear 24-bit/96kHz audio resolution. And to take it to the next level, PreSonus includes the Studio Magic Plug-in Suite. This extensive collection of popular plug-ins from manufacturers such as Maag Audio, Lexicon, and Arturia, adding up to hundreds of dollars of extra value. Punch up your mix bus with Brainworx’s bx-opto, add ambiance with Eventide’s SP2016-inspired Stereo Room reverb, fire up transients with SPL’s Attacker, and much more. And since these plug-ins are available in AAX, VST, and AU formats, they’re compatible with any DAW you choose.
