Moukey Compact Studio Audio Stereo Mixer, 4 Channels DC 5V for Clubs Bars Stage Mixing Desk Guitar Bass Keyboard, MAMX1

This is a great little piece of kit with little being the key word! Measuring slightly over 6" long it packs in mixing capabilities for six inputs with virtually no noise at all (certainly my amp made more noise than the mixer added).I really appreciate the fantastic range of power options available as the unit is fed by a USB power lead. This means it can be operated by a battery pack (great for buskers) or directly from a USB plug or strip. It's stylish and sturdy metal box looks great on my desk next to the computer, but was bought to mix our band together before putting the signal into the main mixer desk and recorder.Easily balances the inputs added so that I could move from vocals, pedals, guitar, bass and ukulele without having to change the settings on the amplifier (in fact once the levels had been checked on this nifty little mixer, I could just use the volume control from the pickup whilst playing. It does 'boost' the signal making it a 'mixer-preamp'Not sure how the stereo input/output works at present as there is no facility to pan the inputs right or left. I suspect this means that they would operate as 'straight through' with any mono inputs pushed into the middle of the stereo signal - useful if you're running a stereo FX pedal through the system though.A small niggle is the lack of a clear level marker on the mixing knobs - easily rectified with a blob of Tipex (I've just discovered there is a mark but it has to catch the light).I can imagine that a multi-instrumentalist (or somebody with lots of keyboards) will love this little mixer as a "local" control before entering the mixing desk (this is the scenario shown in the instruction manual)As a lightweight, almost pocket sized mixer which adds very little or no noise, this will earn its place in my gig bag even if I'm just going to be using the two inputs for instrument and voice.

Happy with this little mixer. Very little noise. Use it to connect piano and pc when I practice. It does the job. Small size. Very good build quality. Very easy to use.

I bought this once as a sub-mixer for Korg Volcas into my main mixer. (Interestingly enough, it seems that even the "mono" Korg Volcas like the Bass and Keys actually have a stereo output that outputs the same signal to both channels. As such, and given that the Volca Drum/Sample/fm are true stereo, it's worth using stereo for all of them.)The first time I bought this, it was definitely creating noise almost akin to radio interference. It wasn't a ground loop, as I'd isolated that, everything was plugged in to the same place, and I tested carefully. No other ground loops in my setup, and I was getting the noise even with no input signals and low volume. I sent it back.Later, having looked around for almost every alternative, I re-read the reviews and decided to give it another chance. This time, I've got exactly how I wanted it. No noise. No problems. It must depend on which unit you get -- maybe the quality control isn't the best?Either way, for the unit itself, it's exactly what you'd want in a highly compact mixer. Six switchable mono/stereo inputs wieh independent volume controls and a main volume control. Sturdy metal construction and a comfortable feel on the pots. It feels well made, and looks very unobtrusive.If you're worried about noise, I'd suggest giving it a try and seeing how you do. I had definite noise on one, but the second is perfect. I haven't found any other mixer that can do this job with this form factor for any price. If you've got a few Volcas and are thinking maybe to have one or two more, this is exactly the right piece of kit. If you have a similar desire to mix together a few input sources together to a stereo output and don't care about panning, EQ, or effects, this is a great piece of kit and , incidentally, good value for money.Five stars would be my rating for the unit I have. I gave four stars just because I definitely had a bad unit before, and the reviews imply that other people have had them as well. I wish one of the bigger names would make a similar unit to give more confidence, but until then this is almost uniquely perfect for this particular niche.

Just what I was looking for at a very reasonable price point to use as a practice tool for my guitar.It allowed the playing of mp3 backing tracks along with the guitar output, both of which were easily mixed to produce a good sound.The downside: the C5 power cable as supplied was faulty however, not worth the bother of sending it back as the replacement would likely be of a similar budget quality.

I knew it was going to be compact but was surprised at just how tiny it is which is good. Build quality appears to be good especially considering the price (£30 at 18 10 23)The control knobs have a nice “drag” feel to them and feel sturdy.I purchased this mixer to enable a compact, quick and easy to set up and transport system which it enabled very well (see pics)Sound wise, at sensible input levels , the mixer is quiet with little audio quality lost.I found powering the mixer by USB lead from a laptop generated a bit of noise. Powering with the supplied cable and a 5v phone charger reduced the noise to virtually zero.Pleased with the purchase . ill report back after couple of months use.

Outstanding, a real sea change in mini mixers (and I've used them all).Astonishingly, it's actually dead quiet, solidly built and reliable. I'm buying more.

8 channels to which you can connect any type of audio equipment. This is the perfect solutionI haven't had time to test this device yet, but I believe that for my needs it will be the perfect solution for my purposes

so far so good, I haven't noticed any noise, nice and small.only negative is the usb cable is very short
