Yeah it’s creepy. Not sure why it’s doing it. If you click on it, then it displays fine…?

Sorry to re-rail, but I’ll just leave this here… Midiman MicroMixer 18.
18 channels and ver small.
Also the seller appears to have amazing taste in music. Ahem…

Beautiful. Can we have a new thread just for these things please? Trippy images or something?

That is nice and bijou…probably a bit expensive unless its exactly what you want…no eq ,no mic,probably cant bring up a guitar signal… but love that it has 2 effects sends.
Haven’t listened to that AC marias lp for years. Must admit that after her contributions to Dome I was hoping for something a little more experimental when it came out. When I come across my vinyl copy I will have to give it another listen…Already have a mental note to find Desmond symonds (?) Alone again on penguin island… I have it in a box somewhere…

edit… Just realised…price is justified by your refurb-of course. no criticism of you intended.

My housemate left this, saying it “didn’t work”

It was far from not working ! There’s an echo chamber in it, a nice distorsion when pushed a little, and above all nice little VU meters. Glad he did not bother taking it when moving out :slight_smile:

No, I probably am asking a bit too much for it! I’ll reduce the price gradually until one of the watchers bites! I’m trying to get some money together for a Norns and 128Grid.

That One of Our Girls album is an old favourite of mine. I first heard about it from an AC Marias video I saw on Snuff TV on BBC2 many years ago. I’ve not heard the Dome stuff, but it’s been mentioned to me before. I’ll make a note to check it out and that penguin thing. Cheers

That’s really tasty! What’s the model?

Sherwood mixer system 800. The RCA inputs are cool, it allows me to plug my kaoss pads and stuff, and to re record my digital mixes with more dust. Probably not the best sound quality wise, but it looks good and sounds okay :slight_smile:

Not especially small but just right for a one man studio, I use a peavy PV6. see that there is one up on ebay (UK) for £70. Don’t know the seller but has decent feedback. Sort of recommend this mixer though. Its one of the worst ebay photos i have seen.

Can anyone recommend a mixer for me? I’m after:

4 mono input channels
4 stereo input channels
PFL for all channels
3-band EQ on all channels, with sweepable mid-range
2 x mono aux sends, 2 x stereo aux returns
Able to fit on a small desk with other gear

Something like the Mackie 1202VLZ is frustratingly close to being perfect, but it lacks sweepable mids: is there anything out there of a similar size / price which includes them?

The Bastl Dude has been around for a while now, does anyone have any experience with it yet? Noise issues, battery life, ect.?

Considering something ultra portable for an OP-1 > OP-Z > Norns setup.

I’ve never seen a small format mixer with sweepable mids on stereo channels: even bigger consoles don’t have them. There are a few Soundcraft and A&H with sweepable mids on mono channels that could bring you close…

Little rechargeable DJ style mixer

And the even more minimal

Nice find. Diggin that RPM-100. Think I’ll order one.

Not super minimal, but still quite small for the features:

I’m seriously considering this for the future, since I’m looking for something small, which will work both as a mixer and multi-channel audio interface.
What I think makes this very interesting is: two AUX busses (albeit only mono, which is a bit of a missed opportunity imho), 4 return channels from the DAW and a simple built-in recorder (for the master track only though). K-Mix still wins over this one, but it’s also more expensive, and I’m not sure about the touch-based interface.

That looks really interesting! I am thinking about replacing my portapro four track for a while, just to be able to quickly bring recordings with me on my phone.

So the recording feature here looks nice to have. Has anyone tried this out yet?

Just ran into another pretty minimal TEAC mixer, called “model 2”

Can the Bastl DUDE handle modular-strength signals? That could be handy for maximising the potential of a small external mixer, integrating guitar pedals, etc.
