I use one of these for live gigs with my band [I should mention that we use only synthesizers and vocals], and would recommend it for this purpose. Channel 1 is designed to cope with the signal from microphones, and so has more parameters on it than the others. This channel has a standard mic input, as well as a mono quarter-inch jack socket in case you want to use channel 1 for an instrument instead. I use this channel for any synths that give a quieter signal than the others, because it has additional high/low EQ dials that can be used to boost the instrument’s volume.

Channels 2 & 3 and 3 & 4 are really pairs of mono inputs rather than four separate channels – this is really a three-track mixer. But it is possible to ‘cheat’ an extra channel by putting yet another instrument through the two ‘CD/Tape’ mini-jack inputs. Depress the ‘CD/Tape to mix’ button next to this, and use the volume control on your instrument to get the right balance. Admittedly, here the 502 isn’t ‘mixing’ as such, as it isn’t controlling volume, and you won’t be able to pan that instrument right or left, but it at least allows you to get another instrument through the unit, and I’ve found this very useful at gigs.

The unit itself is very compact. It’s light enough for easy transport but sufficiently solid to withstand live performance. If you want a mixer for a band with a few more players, then get the Xenyx 802 instead, which has more inputs. But personally, I’m very happy with the 502. A lot of people have at first laughed at it when I’ve unpacked it at gigs, only to have to shut up when they realised it could channel our sound perfectly well into a quarter-inch double-jack lead coming from its output sockets.

Excellent Piece Of Kit!, 24 Dec 2010

By 

A. Parkes “APPRENTICE” (united kingdom) –

  

This review is from: Citronic USB Phono Line RCA Adapter analogue digital (Electronics)

This was just what i was looking for. kept trying to find something that would convert my LP vinyls to digital format, but whatever i found it needed an amplifier to achieve the conversion.not the Citronic USB Phono Adapter!
This little gem has a built in sound card which cuts out the need for an amp. no power supply needed, just plug the USB into any available computer port and away you go. also supplied is Audacity (audio editing suite program) looks daunting and complicated at first glance, but after a bit of searching on the web,found some tutorials to understand the workings of it. found the Citronic Phono Adapter in my local electrical hardware shop and they was asking £50!
not a bad saving from Amazon. 10/10 a must buy for anyone wanting to get their vinyl onto digital without any hassle or fuss.

Great value controller, 12 Jan 2012

By 

Ian Cleverdon “Clev” (Lancashire, England) –

  

This review is from: Chauvet OBEY40 Universal DMX-512 Controller (Electronics)

I am brand new to DMX lighting and we wanted a simple – and especially cost effective – mixer for a big gig we were doing, with a friend who is new to lighting to be in control. It is VERY easy to use, and has plenty of controls. For small requirements (we are using an Equinox Microbar and two stand alone 56 PAR cans) it’s superb.

Better than the SM58 and built for Gigging, 11 Mar 2010

By 

Gareth Bird “Author of Gig-Getter & Rouse the… (Manchester, UK) –

This review is from: SHURE SM 86 (Electronics)

The Shure SM58 is billed as the “Mic of choice” amongst musicians but I bought this alternative after reading about it on a number of forums in the U.S. It’s a Condenser mic to smooth out imbalances in volume and has a flat end so you can get up close and personal when you sing. Great if you mic technique is less than expert.

Gives your voice a beautifully rich tone which always stands head and shoulders above mics used by other bandmates.(Believe me it’s the mic not my voice..)

This is a very reliabale mic which you’ll find is easier on the throat than many others. You don’t seem to have to push yourself to be heard in the mix as much as the 58 certainly. The SM 86 is built for gigging but will also serve you well in the studio

Bought this to do podcasts with and am really impressed with it. Set it up to work with my Macbook Pro and after some fiddling with levels etc I created my first podcast using Garageband. Seems quite a high standard of build quality, every component is solidly built.

Can recommend this.
