USB audio mixer

[Craig Ludington]

Im looking for a good USB audio mixer but im dont wont to spend alot. I need a mixer with at least 2 channels with XLR Line inputs and it need to have Phantom Power. I only wont to spend around $30 to $70 can someone pleas give me some sturgeons.

I honestly doubt you'll find a cheap mixer with XLR inputs. Maybe RCA inputs but probably no t XLR

I'm not sure of any mixer in that price range, or at least, any good one, but any good one you do find will have at least 2 XLR if not 4.

[Craig Ludington]

what is the cheapest you think i could find for good quality and whats ones would you serest

There's the behringer Xenyx series, with both USB and non-USB versions.

 

A better question though, is what do you want to achieve with this set up, and why do you think a mixer is the right tool for the job?

Same, can recommend Behringer Xenyx, I have 502 (non usb). It's been going great for me!

i have two XLR microphones that both need phantom power and i wont them so that i can record ether two people singing or someone singing and a getar. i also wont to be able to use them for skype and you tube videos. i also wont to be able to adjust the gane and the sound volume for each mic separately

If you want to record them separately then you'll need an audio interface (e.g. behringer UM2 or a focusrite Scarlett 2i2) and a DAW (e.g. Reaper or audacity may do what you need).

 

If you only want to record a mix of the two then a USB mixer will present itself as a single stereo input. If you pan one mic hard left and the other hard right you may be able to record them to separate tracks.

i wount the two imposts two be mixed together so that it out puts to a single stereo output. what mixers would you suggest

It's more 'what's in your price range?'

 

the Xenyx 802usb is currently on amazon USA for $80, and is the lowest end model with two mic inputs.

 

For comparison the behringer umc202 (2 mic/inst inputs) is $10 cheaper and would be better for recording than going through the stages of a mixer.

 

just out of interest, what mics are you using?

[Craig Ludington]

im looking into the Neewer® NW-800 but if you have a better suggestion that in the same price range then id be open to consider them and im in Canada so keep that in mind
