Audio Mixer 8 Channel, CT-80S Professional Sound System Mixer Board DJ Mixing Console with Reverb MP3 Player Bluetooth 48V Phantom Power Supply USB Recording for Studio Karaoke Live Music

Bought this for my buddy who has a blues band and needed to learn to handle his own sound. It's a solid basic mixer with a clean sound and all of the functions he needed. Still trying to find a good carrying case for it. The FX send port can be used as a second aux for a mixer, and built-in Bluetooth and recording are handy. Works better than my 1 year old name-brand model that cost more than twice as much, althoough some people may miss the onboard FX functions. Open Mic and Karaoke folks might want some reverb.

well ive been putting it through all the paces and it has made me happy so far. So many nice, useful practical features in a great value package. The size, shape and dimensions are really comfortable to move around and work with as well. The bluetooth works great with my macbook air which is super nice and convenient. The faders and knobs move smoothly and dont feel cheap. The 1/4 inch outputs are TRS and work with my existing cables but it has the xlr option as well. Control room is a great feature for monitoring during recording etc. But the ace in the hole is the delay fx which is great for my new wave / The Cure sounding vocals. The delay setting are all real knobs so its great to tweak in real time and dial it in with the mixer right next to me on a music stand or whatever. And there's 8 mic inputs, at this price! I can have a whole band now, but I use the inputs up pretty fast with all my complex looping routing setup.

Good quality, Bluetooth connectivity great value

Just received it, came as predicted...right on time! Did a full functional test of all inputs/faders/effect/aux and record out and input functions and it passed with flying colors. Left unit ON for a burn-in test. I will test it completely again tomorrow after a 24 hour burn-in. It has a dual 18v supply which actually makes sense. It is a linear supply and not a switcher! Nice going, no switching noise to contend with. It is overkill for what we wanted, but overkill is better than not having enough channels. Needed a small board to facilitate our clubs zoom sessions with multiple sound inputs to the PC with wired and wireless mics. This fit the budget and the reviews on the whole look good. I noticed some DOA reports and that is probably due to power supply issues. NOTE: The power supply has a case held together with screws and can be repaired and that is a bonus! I still need to test the USB TO PC connectivity and the bluetooth connectivity. If you buy this board be sure to test and burn-in the unit. That way if you find a fail you can return it for a replacement ahead of needing it for a function/performance. Update.......following a 24hr burn-in unit passed again with flying colors. Power supply temperature just warm. Looks like a winner to me. Another update: Tried out the board in its actual use with Zoom presentations using a DB laptop interface and and external USB soundcard and it worked perfectly. Only problems we had was getting the laptop configured correctly to not feedback.

Great price, works excellent. I use this for home karaoke. 2 sends, built in mediocre echo, I have a reverb unit that is better, but I’m a geek. Probably make an excellent practice PA or DJ setup. Sound is good, controls are of acceptable quality, works as advertised. 12 XLR inputs was the best selling point for me.

I bought this to use at a small church and it has made a major difference in the sound!

Is so easy to manage even if you have no clue how to use this mixer , honestly it makes everything so easy

useless for digital production. I attempted to use this to record 7 channels of various drum microphones, only to be unable to use it for anything because it outputted all 7 microphone outputs as one track in my digital audio workbench on my laptop rather than 7 tracks. if I had some some deeper research about this type of audio mixer, I would have learned this. so take my advice, unless you're using this for something super basic and you don't care about having one output per channel input, DO NOT BUY THIS. I am well past the return window, so there is nothing I can do about this at this time unfortunately. I would recommend the Behringer UMC1820 U-phoria for a budget alternative to this, and although it is around twice as expensive, it will actually do what it's supposed to, and since it's from an established brand, you can get support from people who've spent their lives dedicated to audio technology.
