Supplier's Notes:
SonicLink ultra-low-latency wireless technology

Cable-free DJing is possible with the WAVE-EIGHT, thanks to SonicLink. This ultra-low-latency technology wirelessly transmits audio much faster than a Bluetooth connection so only a fraction of a second passes between pressing play on the decks and hearing the track through the speaker.

Switchable sound modes

The WAVE-EIGHT features several modes you can change between with a single switch to create the type of sound you need, including Mono, Stereo, and Subwoofer mode.

Combinable with the OMNIS-DUO

If you combine the WAVE-EIGHT with the OMNIS-DUO portable all-in-one DJ system, which also features battery power, you can play cable-free for total freedom.

Battery power and waterproof design

A full battery charge gives you 8 hours of music on the WAVE-EIGHT. The unit is also waterproof, with an IPX4 rating, so it's ideal for using outdoors.
And there's a USB Type-C port for
charging a phone or other device.

Professional sound quality
With a highly efficient Class D amplifier, a newly developed 8-inch driver, and a Vortex Bass Accelerator which delivers clear and powerful bass, the WAVE-EIGHT will bring the vibes and the punch to your party's sound, even in outdoor settings. To cover larger events and spaces, you can easily add more units to your setup with the SonicLink connection.

Easy portability

The extendable handle, casters, and additional grab handles make it easy to carry the WAVE-EIGHT to any location on your own. There's a pole socket built-in too, so you can mount the speaker on a stand for extra height.

Notes: Offering sophisticated EQ, crossover, dynamics processing and system protection, the Mackie SP260 2x6 Speaker Processor provides complete system optimization for both passive and powered systems. Five different operating modes cover a wide range of systems. Each input and output is loaded with a huge range of processing including flexible EQ, crossover, delay and limiting solutions. It delivers everything you need to professionally optimize loudspeaker systems of nearly any size. The SP260 utilizes high-end 24-bit AKMr AD/DA converters with 120dB dynamic range for class-leading sound quality. With 24 user-definable presets and flexible I/O for simple routing and configuration, the SP260 is an ultra-flexible processor, ideal for a wide range of portable and permanent applications.

The Mackie SP260 has two inputs that instantly connect your mix into a whole host of processing and routing capabilities. Your input signal will never be the same. It will be better thanks to the SP260. Each input features a mute switch and variable gain control. Now, you can easily control the whole system regardless of how many boxes you have. Turn these down and the entire system turns down. Easy, right? But, that's just where it starts. The Mackie SP260 features 5-band EQ on both inputs. You can choose between parametric or hi/lo shelving, providing an extremely flexible approach to room tuning that is sure to please any professional engineer. There's even a 600ms delay available on each input. This is great when using multiple Mackie SP260s to drive delay stacks in really big venues. Or, you could go crazy and time align the stage with the main speakers. No one is watching and I am sure it will make all the difference in the world. If you are like us, this is what you would be doing.

There are six individual outputs on the Mackie SP260 providing a wide range of possible connections, depending on your system. To start, each output features a mute switch and individual gain adjustment. This allows you to turn up the subs for a bit of more low end or get a little more volume to another zone without having to walk out and adjust the power amps.

Each output also features a dedicated 7-band EQ, complete with selectable parametric or shelving control per band. This feature is critical for properly voicing a loudspeaker for the program material being presented or for the venue it is in. Adjusting the voicing with this comprehensive EQ control allows you dial in the perfect response curve for the system and application at hand.
