Nice console to handle up to 6 scanners

The new NCS Multi-RX brings a new dimension to receive audio control and monitoring. With the Multi-RX you can choose which radios to monitor, where the audio will appear in the audio field (with two modes of operation to choose from), and it allows you to record any or all audio, utilizing Manual or VOX recorder activation. "Record Select" LEDs indicate which radio(s) are selected for recording. With the Multi-RX you can use headphones (or headset) or speakers or both simultaneously. "Busy" indicators for each radio are provided making it easy to identify which radio is active. Packed with functionality and flexibility!.

Monitor up to 6 radios simultaneously with the Multi-RX Switcher. Any or all of the six radios are selected with the Left and/or Right Channel pushbuttons in the “NORMAL” mode. In the “SPATIAL” mode radios are pre-assigned positions in the audio field and can be selected with the pushbuttons on the front panel.

It is nice, but pretty expensive for what it does actually. I tried to contact the company about a year ago, inquiring about a possible discount, if I were to write an in depth review for one of the major scanner publications. Not only did they not offer a discount, they didn't even respond to my inquiry.

So now I see they're not selling well, and they've had to offer a discount to everyone.

Go on eBay and find any audio mixer and it will pretty much do the same thing, at about 1/4 of the price, or less.

pretty coo, but like Lakes said, too much $$$

Very nice unit in spite of price. That would almost make me feel like I was at work with one of our Centracom radio screens. As expensive as the unit seems it isnt nearly as expensive as what it would cost to run 6 top pf the line radios into it.

A $75 Behringer audio mixer would do the same job for most of our shacks.

I especially like how they didn't bother to get proper audio jacks on the back; they just used $0.25 bulkhead stereo RCA's from a surplus joint.


Those jacks will DEFINITELY hold up over time and abuse.

I did a search and found this thread.. Can anyone recommend an audio mixer that is reasonably priced usable for my shack?
