Mackie Mix5 Compact 5 Channel Analog Mixer
5-Channel Compact Mixer 1 Microphone channel with 2-band EQ and phantom power, 2 Stereo channels without EQ, Balanced main output (jack), Headphone output, Tape in/out, Incl. power supply I only needed a mixer that could take a minimum of 2 inputs to a single output, and for this purpose only, this is perfect.
I didn't notice any distorsions, only a small buzz at high volumes and no music playing. Only "con" is that it doesn't have an on/off switch, so you need to unplug it when not using. The sound is good, can't hear any background noises, build quality is fine too, it has metal body, it's small and light device and it's good for carrying.
Cons: The knobs for me is a bit too tight and uneven in tightness. The headphones output volume depends from main mix volume, those outputs are not totally separated, which I personally don't like. Overall this is nice little mixer.
Detailed technical specifications are shown in the Overview section above.
