niceguyhomer Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I want to buy a small mixer for my den and if possible I want to run everything through it - Tascam BT, small combo, drum machine, pc (if that's possible). I'd like something decent but don't know where to start. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eight Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I use a little Behringer Xenyx for the same kind of thing. Works well - maybe not the cleanest on the market but I was happy considering the low cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
51m0n Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) A little mackie would be perfect You'd be lookign for 3 stereo channels though, and a couple of monos, or 8 monos (you can figure out panning for yourself I'm sure). Somthing like [url="http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?q=mackie+mixer&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=2kx&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB%3a%6ffficial&channel=np&prmd=ivns&biw=818&bih=523&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=14926173574006257262&sa=X&ei=c3SlTaP1EYW4hAf26eTACQ&ved=0CGkQ8wIwAA#"]this (clicky linky)[/url] Even has USB in from the 'puter - which is handy!

Does it just send the stereo mix or all of the tracks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceguyhomer Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 Thanks for that but it's more than I really wanted to pay - I was hoping to find one for about £100 but I know nothing about mixers at all. In fact, if I do buy one, someone will have to come and wire the thing up and show me how to work it [quote name='51m0n' post='1197917' date='Apr 13 2011, 11:05 AM']A little mackie would be perfect You'd be lookign for 3 stereo channels though, and a couple of monos, or 8 monos (you can figure out panning for yourself I'm sure).

redstriper Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I have a Tascam MM-1 keyboard mini mixer for sale. It's 20 channels amd suitable for anything from vocals to guitars/synths/drum machines etc. There is one on ebay now [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tacam-MM-1-Line-Mixer-/250803843936?pt=UK_Mixers&hash=item3a6512f360#ht_500wt_1156"]here[/url]. I paid £400 about 10 years ago and used it in my home studio - it's an excellent bit of kit, all the inputs are jack, so no XLRs required. I want £60 including postage if you're interested. Steve.

charic Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Yamaha is pretty good gear at a lowish cost. I used to use that before I upgraded to my Korg Rig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
