Monitor Controller for Easy Routing!
With the three products in the Big Knob series, studios of any size benefit from professional source/monitor selection and the precise level control that made the original so popular. Thanks to high-resolution Onyx USB recording and playback, studios get a powerful hybrid solution that's truly more than the sum of its parts. And the Big Knob series even throws in the free DAW "Tracktion Waveform" software on top!
Big Knob Studio
The Mackie Big Knob Studio combines premium Onyx preamps and 192-kHz/24-bit converters with the flexible source selection and monitor switching of the well-known original. With smart features like built-in talkback and an extra input for smartphones, the Big Knob Studio is the perfect compact solution for the studio.
Premium Onyx Recording / Playback
Both the Big Knob Studio and the Big Knob Studio+ offer a high-resolution USB interface with up to 96 kHz. They feature two Onyx mic preamps that deliver an extremely wide gain range of 60 dB and award-winning sound quality.
Pro Source and Monitor Selection
The Mackie Big Knob has proven itself for more than a decade as the "go-to monitor" solution for project and professional studios. The brand-new Big Knob family takes the best of that classic workflow and delivers the right solution for the modern studio.
Flexible Integration
The expanded Big Knob model range offers units with unique feature sets and I/O for a wide variety of applications. Features like two headphone outputs, a dedicated amp-controlled studio output, a true cue mix and more ensure the Big Knob fits perfectly into your studio or workspace.

I have the feeling, I hear more detailed and spatial, since between DA-converter and active monitors no longer the (older) Mackie-)mixer hangs, but the Big Knob.
