~From the manufacturer's website~
- The LM-8ST is a line mixer that mixes eight stereo line inputs. In addition to TRS balanced line inputs on each channel, channel 1 supports an XLR balanced microphone input. It can also be used with simple PA systems that require a microphone. Two independent output buses allow you to output different mixes. The two bus outputs are equipped with XLR balanced outputs and RCA unbalanced outputs. Additionally, the ST 2/AUX bus can be used as an AUX bus, and can also be used to send effects (the effect return uses one of the inputs).

This unit is suitable for a variety of uses, including stereo source selection, microphone announcements, and mixing in stores, restaurants, banquet facilities, and sound systems, as well as on-stage keyboard mixers and sub-mixers.
