th555 Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) I'm looking to buy a very simple (and not too expensive) mixer. So far I've found: This Leem micro mixer (€25): http://www.promusicaustralia.com/other/LeemImages/wam-290.jpg It's bigger brother (€35): http://www.promusicaustralia.com/other/LeemImages/wam-490.jpg And this nice behringer box (€28): http://www.poweruser.be/shop/images/behringer/MX400_big.jpg I've also been looking at some 2nd hand stuff, but there isn't much and they all have weird outputs (din, tulp etc). I'm leaning slightly towards the behringer for it's compactness. 4 channels with a volume knob is all I really need right now. Any thoughts or other suggestions? And is there such a thing as a passive mixer? Because that would be ideal, even at only 2 channels (I could just buy 3 of them haha). Thanks in advance.

th555 Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Thanks for the suggestion, looks good, and an eq will always come in handy. I can't find anywhere to buy it though.

th555 Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) I've been looking at building one yeah. Should be doable even with a breadboard (so no soldering :)) and some basic components, which I can get from uni. Might try to build something else sometime (analog polysynth hahaha). edit: ascdi, how much is the attenuation on that thing? Looks good.

ryancolecreate Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 ya I was eyeing their mix16fx too forever :( They had such a nice brand going! I bet you could build that DOD mixer for like 20 bucks. I'd love to build one of these for some wacky routing options. :) http://sound.westhost.com/project129.htm It like a mixer with only sends for outputs! :o Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide ryancolecreate's signature Hide all signatures ------ dailyambient.com ------ New Ambient Music Every Day.
