Notes: IN-SCOPE JUDGMENT CALL: same rationale as MW-2408 (sibling model, 16-channel variant sharing one product page) -- live/studio mixer with analog mic preamps, included as pro-audio hardware. analog_or_digital set to 'hybrid' per Korg's own 'hybrid analog/digital' description. device_class set to 'Analog Mixer' (analog core bus + digital effects/USB layer); 'Digital Mixing Console' rejected. price_usd is an approximate current street price seen at retail (Musician's Friend); listings ranged $979.99-$999.99 depending on retailer -- Korg does not publish MSRP on its spec pages, flagging as approximate.
