The Rockville RockMix5 is the perfect solution for gyms, restaurants, podcasting, karaoke, recording and more. This compact mixer is packed with all of the important features that you need. The built in USB interface allows you to record onto your favorite DAW or interface with your computer for playback. The recordings will be super clear because our mic pre-amp is clean with low noise. This feature makes this product perfect for recording music or podcasting in real time. The 2-band EQ and panning allows you to customize the sound on channel 1. We also added echo, making this perfect for singing or just getting your voice to sound great on a podcast or recording. We added Bluetooth playback so you can have wireless playback if you are using this in a gym, restaurant, in your home, or any other place where you do not want to hard wire your playback device. With 2 stereo channels and 1 mono channel this mixer is very versatile. There is also an extra 3. 5mm mic input if you need to plug in a secondary microphone. The clipping indicators will prevent you from adding too much gain making it easy to set your levels accurately. This solid steel mixer is built like a Rock! Every component including all potentiometers and knobs are extremely high grade. If you want to podcast on the go you are in luck! This mixer is BUS powered! There are 3 ways to get power to this mixer. The bus power allows you to plug the USB cable into your laptop or computer and power the mixer. We also include an adapter so you can plug it into a wall outlet. Another option is you can use a power bank to give power to the mixer since it only requires 5 volts of power. This mixer is loaded with so many features we almost forgot to mention that channel 1 supports condenser mics since it has 18 volts of phantom power
