Mackie Mixing Board

Our church had to replace its electronic carillon and the feed into the Mackie mixing board was way, way higher than the former one. So what line attenuator should we get? I chose this multi level one so I wouldn’t have to guess and it works perfectly on the highest setting so the trim levels on the mixing board are near their null points and there’s no danger of blowing out a channel with overload.

integrates perfectly with my performance rig. Keep a small Mackie mixing board on it and got another for my iPads. Perfect next to my keyboards. Fast delivery, and love to buy from BHPhoto.

I use for shooting events and capturing audio from mixing board

Use with Zoom H4N to connect to mixing board

If you own the Mackie MCU Pro this is a no brainer!!! It’s expensive but it adds immediate value to your tracking and mixing capabilities. The only reason why I don’t own two of them is because I need the spare midi ports to plug up my MPC 2000XL and Nord Stage 3 into my MCU Pro! Do yourself a big favor and purchase one if you are on the fence. Once you get one you will immediately be glad that you did.

I'm thrilled, that I can hear on both speakers on my headphones now that I'm connecting to the Rode mixing board.

We replaced our church's old Mackie analog board with the Soundcraft Ui16 and have heard a noticeable improvement in the overall sound quality - especially with our singers. Several congregants remarked how crisp the sound was. Using the virtual sound board on an iPad was also fabulously easy and has helped in clearing up a lot of clutter on our AV counter. So far we are very satisfied with the Soundcraft Ui16. Plus you can't beat the price!

The AudioStream Pro SL wireless system is a great system. It works exactly as described. I plug the transmitter into a stereo output on my audio mixing board and the receiver into the stereo audio input on my camcorder; I am able to record the received stereo audio on the SD card in my camera as the embedded audio track with the video exactly as it comes from the mixing board. By the way; the hardshell carrying case is great. Very well designed. Thank You Wi Digital I love your Pro SL wireless system. .

I am using this lav mic to amplify a 5 string banjo. I had been using a generic electret battery driven lav mic (think radio shack) for that purpose, replacing the mini-plug with a female 1/4 inch, then using a standard guitar cord, plugging into a Baggs Para DI, then into the board of the sound system with an xlr mic line. That was OK, but I had lots of thin wire to coil, a fragile battery pod and the nusiance of dead watch batteries if I forgot to switch the thing off. The SM11 of course needs no batteries and the wiring is much more robust than the cheap lav mic. I can go direct into a mixing board and the sound is quite nice. The banjo doesn't really need a lot of high end amplification, and doesn't produce deep lows -- all of which the dynamic mic doesn't pick up. So the result is a nice warm sound, and much more full-spectrum than the electret mic to my ear. Probably because the diaphragm is larger, I guess. I don't need to hide this rather large (thumb size)lav canister in clothing, like a video person would. It rides in the backside of the banjo. The included tie clip worked fine, clipped to a little jig I sometimes use. But instead I wrapped the body in some dense memory foam, and made my own mount that also acts as a tone regulator behind the head -- it's an open-back banjo thing. Looks like this product is robust and should work for years. Works fine going straight into the mixing board. But when I run it through the Baggs Para DI (which is a preamp as well as a DI) I have to use a transformer to change the signal to HI-Z for the 1/4 inch input. Then the output from the Bagg's male xlr (lo-z again) is too hot for the mixing board, so I use a 20db attenuator between the DI out and the board mic-line in. Works fine that way.

I used this to be able to record on Pro Tools LE w/o latency. One signal went to tape and one to a mixing board for monitoring. The signal sounded the same after being split. The level was the same. It did what it's supposed to do.
