Phoenix Audio is based in Costa Mesa SoCal US. We make summing mixers, microphone pre amps and DI bo

Phoenix Audio was originally formed in July 1996 to provide a British service for owners of pre 1980 Neve recording consoles. It has since evolved into a manufacturer of high quality Class A audio equipment, uniquely original designs to embody the classic British tone but with a modern twist. Our range of products are designed, built and wired in-house by professional wiremen and engineers with ma

ny years experience that take great pride in the quality of their craftsmanship. We aim to produce First Class, Class A, discrete equipment that is fully backed by a growing network of distributors based across Europe and the USA. In early 2009 Phoenix Audio relocated to the USA, now all our manufacturing and worldwide distribution is handled from our offices in Costa Mesa in sunny Southern California. The sonic quality and integrity of the designs were retained but with a new improved focus on build quality and support and a commitment to use the best possible components. We are proud to now be an American manufacturer of professional audio equipment whilst still maintaining our British heritage and roots.

Phoenix Audio Scion — the summing mixer that’s quietly winning hearts in studios around the world. If you’re into gluey mixes, depth, and that classic analogue vibe, this thing is a secret weapon. 🎛️🎧

✨ Why Producers & Mix Engineers Love It:
• Analogue Summing that Feels Alive – Unlike in-the-box summing, Scion adds warmth, width, and a sense of space that only analogue circuits deliver.
• 16 Channels of True Summing – Take your DAW tracks and bring them together in the analogue domain for richer, more dimensional mixes.
• Big EQ & Drive – Sweet spot EQ and variable drive let you colour your mix musically — from subtle sheen to full-on analogue punch.
• Hands-On Workflow – Forget endless clicks. Turn real k***s, feel your mix take shape, and make decisions with your hands and ears.
• Mix Bus Muscle – Scion doesn’t just sum — it cements. Busses feel tighter, vocals sit better, and the whole thing breathes.
• Flexible Routing – Perfect for print summing, fold-down mixes, parallel processing, or as an outboard mixing hub..
