The RODEC BX-9 was introduced back in 2002 as a 19 inch solution for smaller bars and clubs. This specific market was in need of professional high quality audio mixing solutions, where the average user as well as the professional DJ would be allowed to musically optimize their audio system. With 8 inputs, 2 master outputs, multiple rec outputs, triple tone control, PFL & the typical RODEC construction quality, sound performance and reliability these mixers have meanwhile gained their reputation as the small MX-180 and have found their way into thousands of venues around the world. With strong resemblance to the original MX-180 which was introduced back in 1986, the BX9 Original is in fact a third generation product, with obvious updates as standard symmetrical outputs, larger Led bars and new Layout. Less obvious changes are on pure electronic level with a design which is true to the original set-up but with updated schematics and components. As with all RODEC professional mixers BX Original series is still being manufactured entirely in Belgium, with first class components and faders and all other mechanically stress sensible components being fixed individually to the front plate of the mixer in true RODEC tradition.
