Midas's first commercial product — a compact 10-channel PA/studio crossover mixer built around their modular channel philosophy. Each channel had fader, sensitivity control, panning, Left and Right Master VU Meter and Compressor, three push-button mid-range filters, acoustic compensation filters, independent monitor level, mute buttons, and headphone selector. The 1971 advertising headline was deliberate: "Not really a studio console... but mainly a PA mixer" — acknowledging the product's live-sound roots while pitching its studio-grade specifications.
