Thanks to two independent level-controlled microphone channels, you won’t have to sacrifice either of your line level faders at events where you’re using microphones. Each mic channel features XLR/TRS 1/4" combo inputs. Double-up with a dedicated emcee or bring that enthusiastic bride or party animal into the show with the handy talk-over feature. Prime 2 has both a mini and full-size headphone jack input too.
