Hi Mike,
The EQ16 went into production around 1990. It was available with 16 stereo
channels and was intended as an add-on to our Xtramix. The Xtramix also has
stereo input channels. We sold quite a few of them. As time marched on,
synths/samplers had greater EQing capabilities and the EQ16 (or any eq for
that matter) wasn't a high priority in the signal chain.
Around 1996 we made the Model 316. A budget version of the EQ16 intended as
an add-on to the Mackie 1604. 1604 owners never really embraced the 316
like we hoped. Oh well.
Regards,
Vince Poulos

The EQ16 *looks* like the EQ section of the original 16x 8 console.
As I recall, he made that one at the time of the original Mackie 1604
mixer, intening it to be used as a supplement.
