Introducing the DLZ Creator XS: The Adaptive Podcast Mixer
The Mackie DLZ Creator XS Digital Streaming Mixer is the ultimate solution for podcasters and streamers looking to improve their audio quality. Inspired by smartphones and DSLR cameras, this compact digital mixer is designed to adapt to your unique style and skill level while still delivering exceptional sound quality. With the DLZ Creator XS, you can achieve the results you want faster than ever before.

Three Versatile Modes
The DLZ Creator XS offers the same DSP processing power and features as the larger DLZ Creator model but in a more compact and capable design.

Easy: A no-fuss user interface that offers the fastest path to recording your first podcast.

Enhanced: Expanded control over your sound and mix for those who want some customization without too many options.

Pro: Total control and fully customizable for those who know what they want and how to get it.

Built-In Smarts
The DLZ Creator XS isn't just a digital mixer; it's also designed to help you become a better content producer. It comes with Mix Agent, your personal audio assistant that guides you through setup and sound check to ensure you get the best results. AutoMix manages levels for up to four mics, so everyone can be heard even when they speak at the same time. And using Mix Minus with your Bluetooth-connected smartphone lets you add a caller into the mix with no audible echo when they speak.

2 PC Setup with NDI
The DLZ Creator XS can be connected to your router via an Ethernet cable, allowing it to become an audio input and output on your NDI network. Install the NDI Tools software, and you're ready to go.

Record/Stream to Computer, SD Card
The DLZ Creator XS is more than just a podcast mixer. You can use it to record or stream multitrack audio to your computer via USB-C or an NDI connection. It also allows you to record full multitrack audio to an SD card for a completely self-contained setup.

All The Power of a DLZ Creator in A Compact Format
Despite its compact design, the DLZ Creator XS packs a punch. You can connect up to 2 microphones and 3 external devices, including a smartphone, using analog, Bluetooth, or USB.

The Ins and Outs of Producing
The DLZ Creator XS boasts Mackie's decades of expertise, making every detail count for your productions. From Onyx80 preamps that make even low-output mics sound both loud and pristine, to customized headphone mixes for each of your guests, the DLZ Creator XS gives you the benefits of a professional studio mixer without the steep learning curve.

Ready For What's Next
The DLZ Creator XS is designed to be flexible, supporting you every step of the way. Whether you prefer to record or stream to a computer via USB-C, or record full multitrack audio to an SD card, the DLZ Creator XS can handle it all.
