PreSonus StudioLive Series III SE Mixers Stretch Live Workflows

- Metro remote access delivers full console control over the internet—including routing, levels, effects, and scenes—from any mobile or desktop device.
- Virtual Soundcheck via onboard SD card or USB interface provides instant playback of past captures for live mixing and recall scenes.
- Flexible routing architecture, including FlexMixes (Aux/Sub/Matrix), allows over 20 custom mix configurations plus dedicated main output routing.
- Integrated recording capability: Native 64×64 USB audio interface and one-click capture with bundled Studio One Pro and Capture software.
- Enhanced Fat Channel DSP: Includes all 8 compressors, 7 EQ types, updated reverb presets, variable limiter release, and streamlined channel layouts.
