PROEL DIGIPAD8 — Compact 8-Channel Digital Mixer with Motorized Faders

PROEL DIGIPAD8 brings professional digital mixing into a compact desktop format that fits a backpack or a small stage box. Designed for musicians, sound engineers, and content creators, this 8-channel console combines 24-bit / 48 kHz processing with seven motorized 60 mm faders and a 3" capacitive touchscreen. This model is the right choice for performers and small-venue operators who want studio-grade processing without the rack-mounted footprint of a traditional digital desk.

What Sets the DIGIPAD8 Apart in the Compact Digital Mixer Class

Most ultra-compact digital mixers force users to choose between motorized faders and a touchscreen — the DIGIPAD8 delivers both. Seven 60 mm motor-faders recall complete scene layouts the moment a preset loads, while the 3" capacitive display and rotary encoder expose every parameter without menu diving. The built-in Wi-Fi module mirrors the same interface on iOS, Android, MacOS, and Windows apps, so the operator can walk the room with a tablet while the console stays at the mix position.

Inputs and Wireless Connectivity — Mics, Instruments, and Bluetooth

Two combo XLR/JACK sockets accept microphones or line-level instruments, two more combo inputs add Hi-Z impedance for guitars and basses, and a pair of stereo 6.35 mm jacks handles keyboards or playback. A dedicated Bluetooth 5.2 channel streams audio wirelessly from phones and tablets, while the USB-C port carries both power and a 2x2 digital audio interface to a computer.

• Microphone and line sources connect easily via the two combo XLR/JACK sockets on inputs 1 and 2, which offer 10 kΩ impedance.
• Hi-Z Inputs 3–4: Combo XLR/JACK, 1 MΩ impedance — passive guitar and bass pickups, no DI box needed
• Stereo Line Inputs 5–8: 2 × 6.35 mm balanced JACK — keyboards, drum machines, playback
• Bluetooth: Version 5.2 audio streaming — wireless phone or tablet playback

On-Board Processing and Effects — Studio-Grade DSP in a 2.10 kg Chassis

Every input channel runs through the same processing chain found on larger consoles. A 4-band full parametric EQ with dedicated LOW-CUT and HI-CUT filters cleans up problem frequencies, while a compressor and gate with adjustable hold, attack, and release tame dynamics on vocals and drums. A dedicated FX send feeds a stereo digital reverb processor for ambience on stage or in the studio.

• Channel EQ: 4-band full parametric with LOW-CUT and HI-CUT — surgical tone shaping per channel
• Compressor & Gate: Threshold/Ratio/Gain/Attack/Release — full dynamics control without outboard units
• Internal Effects: Stereo digital reverb with adjustable size — on-board ambience via dedicated FX send

Outputs, Power, and Physical Design — Built for Mobile Rigs

The main mix exits on balanced XLR, two AUX sends run on balanced 6.35 mm jacks for monitor wedges or external effects, and a front-panel headphone socket drives both engineer and performer cans from parallel outputs. Power comes from any 5 V / 3 A USB-C source, with a multi-region 100–240 VAC adapter, USB-C cable, and printed manual included in the box.

• Main outputs utilize balanced XLR-M connectors with a +18 dBu maximum level, ensuring ample headroom for front-of-house PA systems.
• AUX Outputs: 2 × balanced 6.35 mm JACK — drives stage monitors or external processors
• Headphone Output: 2 × 6.35 mm stereo, 32 Ω min / 135 mW max — parallel front-panel jacks
• Power Supply: 5 V / 3 A USB-C, 15 W consumption, 100–240 VAC adapter included
• Dimensions & Weight: 280 × 187 × 53.5 mm, 2.10 kg — backpack-friendly desktop chassis, not rackmountable

Who Should Choose the DIGIPAD8

It is the right choice for solo musicians, duos, podcasters, and small-venue sound operators who need a fully featured digital mixer in a backpack-friendly footprint. Solo performers benefit from scene recall between songs, while houses of worship and conference setups gain a desk one operator can run from a tablet across the room. Content creators and streamers get a 2x2 USB-C audio interface plus Bluetooth playback in the same unit.

PROEL and the First DIGIPAD8 Generation

PROEL has manufactured professional audio equipment from its headquarters in Sant'Omero, Italy, since 1991, building a catalog that spans mixers, speakers, microphones, and stage accessories. The DIGIPAD8 marks the brand's first entry into the compact digital mixer segment, applying the company's live-sound experience to a desktop format. This instrument reflects the manufacturer's focus on portable, app-controllable mixing tools for the modern hybrid stage and studio.
