The ART MX524 gives you five inputs and four zone outputs in a single 3U rack space, making it easy to feed different program material to different areas without hauling extra gear. Channels 1-4 use combo XLR/¼” jacks that accept balanced mic or line signals, plus switchable +48V phantom power per channel for condenser mics. Channel 5 rounds things out with RCA line inputs for a CD player, streaming device, or backup source. Every channel gets its own level, bass, and treble control, and can be assigned to any combination of the four zones — handy for a DJ running separate feeds to a dance floor, lounge, and patio, or an install tech covering multiple rooms from one rack.

Five inputs (4 mic/line combo + 1 RCA line) with individual level, bass, and treble
Switchable +48V phantom power on channels 1-4
Flexible routing to four zone outputs via Euroblock connectors
Front-panel 1/8″ headphone monitoring plus separate monitor output
Telephone paging input for announcements over any zone
LED VU metering on every output for quick level checks
DC power backup keeps the system running if AC drops
Rugged steel 3U chassis with internal power supply — no wall wart to lose

Frequency response runs 20Hz-22kHz (±2dB) with THD+N under 0.03% at 1kHz, so it stays clean whether it’s driving background music in a restaurant or handling paging duties backstage. Beyond permanent installs like churches, gyms, and boardrooms, the compact 5.1″ x 19″ x 7.5″ footprint and zone-based flexibility also suit mobile DJs who need to split audio between a main room and a secondary space without adding a second full mixer. Backed by a three-year warranty.
