F Series Features
ENHANCED ANALOG MIXING FLEXIBILITY
RCF’s next generation F Series mixers builds on the rich analog legacy found in the professional E Series, featuring high quality sound in four formats from 6 to 16 channels. A powerful tool for the musician and the sound enthusiast, entirely conceived and designed by the RCF R&D team. Housed in a sturdy metal chassis, each mixer features a full balanced audio path from input to output and the unique PRO DSP FX: 16 professional effects such as Reverbs (Halls, Rooms, Plates, Spring), Delays (Mono, Stereo and Multitap), Chorus, Flangers and Echoes. The models F-10XR, F-12XR, and F-16XR, include an USB audio interface, for stereo recording on computer-based DAW and 2-channel playback.
POWERFUL DIGITAL FX AND RECORDING OPTIONS
16 studio-quality effects and multiple AUXs increase the musical power of the F Series. FX returns can route to AUXs for personal monitor mixes, while the buses and the control room panel can simplify complex routings. Recording your gigs and rehearsals is even easier with an onboard USB audio interface, ready for 2-track playback or recording with a computer.
WORKFLOW IS FAST AND SIMPLE
A compact and robust mixing console for any musician or audio enthusiast, the F Series is entirely conceived and designed by the RCF R&D team. With powerful routing capabilities, premium digital effects, and a stereo USB I/O, it has never been so enjoyable to create and mix.
STATE OF THE ART EQ
State-of-the-art 3 band EQ on mono channels, 2 bands EQ on stereo channels for precise and exquisitely transparent shaping of sound.
HIGH QUALITY PREAMPLIFIERS
High quality preamplifiers with phantom power, inspired by the E-Series Mixers, offer high quality sound and dynamics. Line level signals are less noisy when connected using the separate line input jack socket.
RUGGED CONSTRUCTION
Built to last, the F Series features a durable metal chassis with protective plastic bumpers on each side, making it easy to grab-and-go.
DURABILITY OVER THE YEARS
High-contrast graphics and knobs, premium quality connections and smooth controls increase usability.
ENHANCED FLEXIBILITY
All models provide a balanced signal path from input to output for maximum control and sonic performance.
With a high-profile electronic design and low power consumption, the multi-voltage power supply makes the F Series perfect for worldwide use, giving you the flexibility to travel with your mixer anywhere.
MORE HEADROOM, LESS NOISE
Inspired by our E Series, our new F Series Mixers feature high-quality preamplifiers with phantom power, offering superior sound and dynamics. With a separate line input, line level signals are less noisy than other consoles. F-16XR and F-12XR models feature Hi-Z input level control for musical instruments such as acoustic instruments with piezo transducers, electric bass or guitars with stomp boxes.
SHAPE YOUR SOUND
The tonal balance is adjustable via the powerful F Series equalizer. The F-16XR EQ features a semi-parametric mid-band EQ with selectable frequency.
SINGLE CONTROL COMPRESSORS
The F Series compressor is completely transparent and limits the dynamic range of any instrument and voice. Simply plug in the instrument or microphone, set your gain, and shape the sound by adjusting a single knob. Incredibly ease to use, the end result is musical, without compromising your sound.
24 BIT EFFECTS
RCF has selected 16 studio-quality effects, designed for everyday use when you need great quality FX processing without the need of an external FX unit. The F Series feature a powerful 20/27 bit PRO DSP FX effects engine packed with 24-bit effects such as Reverbs (halls, rooms, plates, spring), Delays (mono, stereo and multi-tap), Chorus, Flangers and Echo.
USB RECORDING AND PLAYBACK

Just plug in a USB lead to a PC, or to your iPhone / iPad (2 or later) using Apple’s Camera Connection Kit / Lightning to USB Camera Adapter.
