I have had mixers before and they always have limitations or dont have features i need, so i was skeptical. I set this baby up and plugged my processor into channel 1 and computer into channel 2. I ran the main output thru my 100 watt stereo amp powering a pair of 12" speakers. Turned everything on and both channels came thru loud and clear with no crossover. The volume controls are pretty linear, but it drops off a little on the low end. It was easy to match the two channel volumes. Guitar and backing track sound seamless coming from a single source. I just crank the master volume up and down without losing the mix. The EQ is impressive. I like that there is a knob for bass and a knob for treble (hi and lo). So much easier than trying to adjust your tone with 7 slide pots. Both bass and treble have surprising range and work fine together. They give me an excellent range of tones. The channels have seperate gain controls, which come on smooth and have a lot of punch without making it too distorted. This device otherwise adds nothing to the signal in the form of noise, distortion or carryover that i can tell, all my favorite processor effects sound just the same thru this as they do thru my amp.
My room recorder has a line in that i connected to the tape out jacks, but there is no volume for tape out, so i used the headphone out, which does have a volume control and it works perfectly. Now I can record at any volume while playing at any volume, which my family will love. No more blasting just so my recorder will pick it up. All the right features without a bunch of fluff like effects, and it accomodates a mix of stereo and mono inputs and outputs with no special adjustments. I am totally stoked with this thing and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a simple and functional mixer.
1) Audio from my desktop PC for video editing and simply listening to music
2) Audio from my AlienWare 17 R2 laptop which is my main DAW running Studio One 3 Pro
3) Audio from my iPad Pro when fooling with Notion, GarageBand and any other audio source
4) Ability to plugin my Taylor acoustic to play solo or along with any of the above
5) Ability for someone to listen to a finished mix on my studio headphones while I monitor the track through the Eris 5s at a low level so I know what they are hearing at any given point
And most of all I needed to eliminate the VERY bad RF interference I was getting from the Eris 5s, because while the sound is TRULY accurate given the price range, the RF shielding is pretty bad, due to the price range. But I got it 99% solved. Here's how:
· Connect the Eris 5s to the Mackie with cables such as Mogami 2549 XLR Male to 1/4" TRS Cable with Neutrik Gold Connectors - 6 Feet by ChromaLeaf . Speakers are done.
· Connect my desktop editing PC to a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi HD USB Audio System with Phono Preamp , and from there connect that to the Mackie's Tape In inputs. IMPORTANT: I used cheap RCA cables and a cheap USB cable between the PC, Creative DAC and Mackie, and got horrible RF noise! I then tried, believe it or not, an AmazonBasics USB 2.0 Cable which are very well made, and a pair of Monster RCA cables I already had, and I get NO RF noise from the Eris 5s now. PC is done.
· In Channels 3 & 4 I run this Ugreen Gold Plated 3.5mm 1/8" TRS to 6.35mm 1/4" TS Mono Y-Cable Splitter Cord which I can use for iPad (NOT iPhone, more on that in a min) or other device with a 3.5mm headphone jack or line out, or even the headphone jack on the AlienWare DAW in a pinch. For serious mixing with the AW I use a Fiio E17K ALPEN 2 USB DAC Headphone Amplifier , again with a good AmazonBasics USB cable, and then the UGreen Y cable goes into the Fiio. iPad and DAW and other audio devices done.
· Channels 1 & 2 are open to accept XLR or line input from my Taylor or mic or preamp or a second device, anything really.
With a mixer the headphones being plugged in don't mute the main output, everything has its own level knob, so i can control everything, even those listening to headphone.
It's a bit extensive, but this gives me a totally flexible, clear, RF-free environment, all possible by this little Mackie control center of a mixer. I can honestly say I can't think of a thing I don't like about it. It's heavy metal construction and sports a power switch which many mini mixers don't have. And now my Eris 5s sound quiet and amazing, and my range of inputs is totally flexible.
One last note regarding RF interference: You still hear that "fax machine" sound faintly when an iPhone is nearby, does it on my wife's PC too, with simple shielded computer speakers. When the iPhone checks for mail for anything else, you hear it. Not horribly but it's there. There is one other Apple product that actually makes noise when you move it about: iTunes for Windows running on my PC! If I scroll a window or something similar, you hear faint RF noice! Other media playing software doesn't so this. WEIRD. Anyway, hope this info helps. If anything, use great cables.
