PreSonus StudioLive Series III SE 24

Command every channel. Control every stage.

StudioLive® Series III SE digital mixers go beyond delivering pristine studio sound quality and processing to give front-of-house engineers and integrators the industry-leading recording, playback, and streaming capabilities needed to meet today's demands.

StudioLive® SE 24 is a small-format digital mixer in a well-equipped low profile featuring 32 digitally recallable XMAX preamps, extensive mixing capabilities, studio-grade audio quality, flexible bus configuration, and advanced integrated recording capabilities – plus a full suite of powerful software featuring Studio One Pro.

The StudioLive SE 24 is a 40-channel small-format digital mixer with a full complement of analogue I/O packed into a 25-fader chassis. The split-fader workflow options let you manage your mix in two efficient fader layers while providing access to your mix outputs on eight additional faders. Equipped with 32 studio-grade, fully recallable, XMAX-R preamps and vintage-style EQ and compression options on every channel and bus, the StudioLive SE 24 makes your mixes sound better, faster. Managing large channel counts has never been easier thanks to 16 FlexMixes that can be configured as subgroups, auxes, or matrix mixes on a per mix basis. Matrix mixes include all 40 input channels and every bus making it easy to create the perfect front- and side-fill mixes for large venues or producer mixes for broadcast applications. You also get 24 DCA groups, 4 dedicated subgroup mixes, and 4 FX mixes, each with a stereo return and dedicated processing with lush reverbs and delays.

When you’re ready to integrate backing tracks, record your show, or mix your next album, the StudioLive SE 24 has you covered with an integrated, continuously bidirectional 64x64 USB 2.0 audio interface and onboard 34x34 SD recorder plus a complete suite of integrated software that features both Capture multitracking and virtual soundcheck software as well as a perpetual license of Studio One Pro. Each channel can easily switch between analogue, USB, SD, and AVB sources, making integrating your analogue and digital gear easier than ever before.

More than a mixer, StudioLive SE 24 is part of a complete ecosystem of hardware and software. Remotely control your mixer or dial in an Offline mix with Universal Control from your computer or tablet. Launch PreSonus Metro and you can control your mixer over the internet from anywhere in the world with real-time audio monitoring. Built-in, Milan-certified AVB audio networking, makes it easy to integrate with stage boxes, personal monitor mixers, switches, and powerful accessories like the AVB-D16 AVB-to-Dante bridge that lets you add 16x16 Dante networking when you need it.
