ART Pro Audio S8-3Way - 8-Channel 3-Way Microphone Splitter with Balanced XLR inputs and 3 Balanced XLR Outputs per Channel

The S8-3WAY eight channel three way microphone splitter is ideal for live sound, recording and broadcast applications where microphone and XLR balanced line level input signals have to go to multiple mix locations.

Each channel provides one XLR input, one XLR direct output with two additional transformer isolated XLR outputs for a total of 3 balanced outputs from each single microphone input signal.

Typical uses would include sending 8 direct signals through the ​S8-3WAY​ to a main Front-of-house mixer, with additional feeds going to a monitor mix station while transformer balanced isolated feeds are sent to remote recording desk or used for a broadcast feed.

The ART ​S8-3WAY​ features the same high-quality musical sounding transformers used in the popular ART S8 and is housed in a standard 1U space rack-mountable steel chassis designed for years of reliable operation.
