However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

The Mackie DL16S stands out with its 16 Onyx+ recallable mic preamps, renowned for their clarity and dynamic range. Each preamp is designed to handle everything from delicate vocals to powerful instruments, providing up to 60dB of clean gain. This ensures that all inputs are captured with the highest fidelity, enhancing the overall mix quality whether you're in a live setting or a studio environment.
Flexibility in mixing is crucial for modern sound engineering. The DL16S excels in this area with built-in Wi-Fi, eliminating the need for external routers. You can control the mixer wirelessly using the Master Fader app—a comprehensive mixing interface available on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows. This app allows up to 20 devices to control the mixer simultaneously, enabling multiple engineers to work from different parts of the venue, providing unparalleled control and collaboration opportunities.
Each channel on the DL16S is equipped with detailed processing options, including a 4-band parametric EQ, high-pass filter, gate, and compression. The built-in real-time analyser helps in making precise adjustments. Additionally, the mixer includes four stereo FX processors loaded with effects such as reverbs, delays, chorus, and more, offering extensive creative potential to enhance and refine your sound.
The DL16S doubles as a powerful 16x16 USB audio interface, making it an excellent tool for recording live shows directly to your computer. This feature is also perfect for playing back intermission music or backing tracks. With the ability to perform a virtual soundcheck, you can replay previous recordings through the mixer, allowing you to prepare and tweak settings before live performances without the band present.
True to Mackie's "Built-Like-A-Tank" reputation, the DL16S is designed to withstand the rigors of touring and live performance. The stagebox form factor is not only compact but also highly durable, with the versatility to be mounted in a rack, placed on a desk, or situated directly on stage.
The DL16S includes the Waveform OEM DAW and DAW Essentials Bundle, providing a suite of 16 professional plug-ins. This software enhances your capability to produce polished, compelling recordings, offering tools such as EQs, compressors, and advanced reverbs.
