Handy little mixerI am a gigging musician. I sing as well as play multiple instruments. I needed a small, inexpensive mixer to consolidate signals – under my personal control – for several instruments I play into a single available channel on the band’s main mixer. This device had the right number of channels in the right size at the right price. Build is robust, if a bit heavy/thick. Fit and finish are good. Cosmetics are passable for a professional setting except perhaps for the bright yellow buttons and the slightly tacky LED display. We will have to see how it holds up to the rigors of the road over time. The pre-amps on this mixer are not particularly quiet (“ultra-low noise”, yeah nah) so I wouldn’t use this device for studio recording, but it is passable for live performance, particularly with pre-amplified instruments. With sufficiently hot, line-level signals, I can keep my gain settings low to avoid audible hiss. For some users, it could be problematic not to have PAD buttons, but I think that I will get by ok with the GAIN knobs alone since the instruments I use all have output level controls. There are no high-pass filters provided either. In case you didn’t notice, there are no PAN knobs – everything is mono except for Channels 5 and 6 and the digital section (USB and Bluetooth playback). There is no BAL knob for Ch 5/6 either although the channel pair does have a GAIN control, which is unusual for mixers of this class. EQ is 2-band – High and Low. The digital EQ presets (“sound effects”, lol) affect only USB and Bluetooth playback. The included effects are basic but useful (I feel that the DSP Select up/down button positions ought to be flipped), especially since there’s no option to insert an outboard effects processor. In fact, there isn’t much to say about routing options – you got PHONES (pre-MAIN level) and main XLR outputs – that’s it. A number of these capability omissions may seem like shortcomings, but I really like the overall simplicity of the feature set for my purposes. The digital section is pleasantly quiet, effective, and useful. One could argue that the device delivers value even if used strictly as an MP3 player, Bluetooth receiver, and digital recorder. It also functions an audio interface (“integrated sound card” – I haven’t exercised that capability yet). Stand-alone recording (to a flash drive) is basic but potentially powerful for a number of purposes – simple audio transcripts/captures, demos, backing tracks, scratch tracks, as well as sound checks (play on stage into recording, then play back to listen from FOH). I could not get recording to start using a 16GB (playback worked) or 32GB flash drive but things seemed to work smoothly enough – I will ignore the odd start times displayed – when I used a 4GB or 8GB flash drive instead. Note that recording levels are affected by the MAIN fader, which is a useful thing. To maximize dynamic range in recordings without clipping, maximize the MAIN level without allowing the level indicator lights to go past green. I had some trouble opening MP3 files produced by the mixer in my audio editor (Magix Audio Cleaning Lab), but playback in other Windows apps I used worked without issues. ACL was able to decode files after I renamed the corresponding filename extensions to MPG – I can’t explain why. The files appear to be 128kb/s, 44.1kHz, mono. USB-based power is great! It provides power supply flexibility while avoiding the need for yet another single-purpose power adapter. Buskers will appreciate the ability to power the unit with a common USB power bank. My aging 10,000mAh power bank looked like it might last for many hours powering the mixer. I expect that using effects, recording, other USB features, Bluetooth, or phantom power will affect overall power consumption. I was pleased that they included a power switch on the unit. The choice of USB Type A connectors on the mixer is interesting. I would have expected a Type B connector. USB cables with Type A connectors on both ends are not super common. The choice does make some sense when you consider the flash drive use cases (USB OTG mode?). Overall, this is a useful, portable device with the essential functions and several cool features – worth the low price I paid to get it. I think that it will serve my simple, specific live mixing application well. I will know better after I’ve had a chance to put it through its paces in live performances a few times. It can also serve as a convenient, standalone – if somewhat flakey – digital “tape deck” for MP3 playback and recording. If “ultra-low noise” mic preamps or stereo mixing are hard requirements, I would look elsewhere.

Sounded just as good as a similar sized, twice as expensive Zed 6Sounded just as good as an Allen & Heath Zed 6 Pro Sound Mixer I bought. Bought this Pyle PMX466 mixer as a backup. Standout features this PYLE has I wish the more expensive ZED 6 had are: Digital MP3 player with REC, 16 DSP Digital Multi Effects (Echos) and Bluetooth (Not tested if it’s Out or an Input) This has 4 XLR / 1/4 inch inputs. 1 stereo 1/4 inch (L & R) input and 2 XLR outputs. No Headphone Cues but has headphone output. +48V for 4 Mics. My Shure Mics sound way better using this little mixer than running the mics straight through my Pioneer DJ Controllers. My only gripe so far is it has a thin flimsy USB power cord like other similar priced & sized mixers I’ve bought and returned on Amazon. Hopefully this one will last. Tested it today and sounded great with my brand new QSC k12.2 speakers. Will update review if any issues arise.

This is a quality board!I connected 2 Shure SLX4 wireless microphones through their recievers to the board then connected my phone via Bluetooth.Connected to speakers through the standard XLR connectors and bottomline this thing is perfect for Karaoke. It’s perfect for gatherings with friends and for adding an additional board for play productions and Church/Christmas programs. I’ve used it for all of these things so far and plan on continuing into the new year and as new events come.I was impressed and surprised that is a USB 5v (similar to a phone charger) to power the board for 4 inputs and Bluetooth. This is a quality board, I’ve been doing AV for the past decade and this is now my go to to grab and go for either parties and events that may need hookups. Or to add to my main board for bluetooth or additional inputs.Plus if you’re new to AV this board isn’t overwhelming. Simple dials but good results when you play around with it. It also makes it easy to adjust to get quality out of a larger board as well. I was worried about the simplicity but using it in action, that was definitely the right call design wise.

Small package great soundPretty good sound board for the money. It Bluetooth’s to my iMac and sounds really good when connected by BT. Still adjusting to not having so many knobs compared to a large board.

Solid, with many features in a small package.This is the first Audio Mixer I have ever purchased. It seems well built, and I have found the printed documentation that came with it very helpful. The device packs a lot of functionality into a small footprint, making it easily transportable. The sound is good, and the layout is intuitive to use, making it easy to get started with the mixer.

Good quality mixer with all the features I needWe’ve been using this mixer in a night club, and have been happy with its performance. As long as it’s properly adjusted, we get good sound quality without any unwanted noise. Two DJs can be plugged in at the same time, and when they’ve finished their set and are putting away their equipment, we can hit play on the usb mp3 player and keep the music going. My one disappointment is that the bluetooth signal range is relatively short.

Good solid mixer at a good price.My first mixer so I’m new to this. Bought it for my karaoke system. Sound is good with effects. Power is supplied only by usb so I’m guessing it’s one of the newer models.
