Luton, UK -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/16/2018 --The Fest F16, the revolutionary new compact 16 Ch digital audio providing high quality audio at a consumer level price point, is live on global crowdfunding platform Kickstarter and raising funds to bring the project to life.

"During my last 10 years in the premium high-end mixing console development and sales industry, I traveled to many different countries to provide training, speak directly with the sound engineers, venue owners, the rental companies and more. I learned from them their audio quality requirements, limitations in the budget, and limitation of the space at venues," says founder and CEO David Kan on the inspiration behind the project. "A compact, lightweight, economically priced, but still capable of delivering a high quality digital mixing desk will solve many of their problems. This gave me the inspiration to develop the FEST F16 digital audio mixer to better serve the market needs."

The F16 boasts the following features:

- Premium touch sensor
-16 Input Channel
- 8 Fully Assignable Outputs
- Relay switch on each output connector.

Meanwhile, the compact size makes it easy to take on-the-go for performances everywhere from conferences, live performances, churches, concerts, weddings, homes, bands and more.

"Although there are a number of small digital audio mixer available on the market, it is difficult to find one that is below the $1k mark which delivered high quality audio," adds Kan.
