Direct answer: choose the series by the buyer's real input count, monitor and output requirements, preferred control workflow, installation or touring use, and local after-sales capability—not by the largest advertised channel number.
Four series, four purchasing roles
ELEGAUDIO focuses its digital mixer program on the DAM, MDX, T and MX families. Together they cover compact live systems, bands, houses of worship, rental inventory, fixed installations and higher-channel professional projects. The best wholesale assortment normally includes a clear entry model, a mainstream model and one step-up model instead of many overlapping SKUs.
| Series | Best purchasing role | Typical buyer concern | Recommended evaluation |
|---|---|---|---|
| DAM | Compact and mid-size motorized-fader systems | Simple operation with professional processing | Inputs, physical controls, rear I/O, scenes and remote control |
| MDX | Scalable 12/16/20-channel product family | Consistent workflow across several price levels | Channel count, motorized faders, USB workflow, browser control and accessories |
| T | Live sound, rental and installation projects | Routing flexibility and operator workflow | Monitor mixes, buses, scene recall, processing and system expansion |
| MX | Higher-channel professional applications | Capacity, touchscreen workflow and training cost | Physical inputs, digital sources, outputs, control access and project documentation |
DAM series: compact professional control
DAM-12 and DAM-16 are suitable when buyers need a recognizable physical mixer workflow, motorized faders and digital processing without moving immediately to a large-format console. They can fit bands, schools, small venues, worship rooms and portable event systems.
Wholesale buyers should compare the actual microphone inputs, stereo inputs, AUX outputs, recording functions, remote-control method, voltage and supplied accessories. Review the DAM-12 product page and DAM-16 product page.
MDX series: a clear good-better-best assortment
MDX-12, MDX-16 and MDX-20 allow a distributor to cover several channel requirements while keeping a familiar operating concept. This makes the family useful for dealer training, demonstrations, spare-parts planning and repeat purchasing.
Use MDX-12 for compact demand, MDX-16 for mainstream band and venue applications, and MDX-20 when more microphone inputs and system growth are required.
T series: live-sound routing and project flexibility
T18 and T24 should be evaluated by complete signal flow: stage inputs, monitor mixes, effects, recording, control positions and future expansion. They are most relevant when the buyer already understands digital routing and needs a model for rental, venues, worship or integration projects.
Compare the current T18 and T24 configurations before quotation because project requirements can affect the recommended model.
MX series: higher channel counts and professional growth
The MX family extends from compact models to MX3210. It is designed for buyers who need more input capacity, touchscreen operation and a workflow that remains understandable to operators moving from analog consoles.
For a high-channel flagship, review the MX3210 product page and the detailed MX3210 features and applications guide.

Frequently asked questions
Which series should a new distributor start with?
Start with the models closest to the market's normal channel count. A compact model plus one mainstream model is usually safer than launching a broad, overlapping range.
Can the four series support OEM or private-label projects?
Options depend on the exact model, order quantity, logo method, packaging, documentation, certification and delivery requirements. Confirm all changes before approving the sample.
What should be included in a quotation request?
Provide the destination country, application, channel and output requirements, quantity, voltage, branding scope, certification needs and desired delivery date.
