Mackie MobileMix 8: Mixer Without Panning Knob or Interface Mode

[@datdudemarets1500]

hi elliot, great video!! i agree with you completely with this unit not having an interface feature..the secondary analog outs maybe used for this purpose i think... i believe this unit not having panning on any of the channels was designed to work great with live streaming social platform such as Tiktok Live, Bigo Live etc...apps that uniutlizes the TRRS ins or adaptors that only accepts mono mic inputs and stereo outputs in/out mobile apps that allows you to interact with viewers by guesting them onto your mobile stream in real time video chat format.. with that said the Mackie MobileMix cost way too much for that purpose alone...the battery pack option with effects is a great feature...but can be accomplished with other less costing brand units with same purpose such as Maono units ...the MaonoCaster AME2 can serve the same purpose with interface feature and cost a lot less...or for even lesser cost the USB V8 Live External Sound Mixer Board work great with older mobile phones (although sacrificing audio quality if used to record on) ..

Thanks for watching, this one is due for a followup. You are correct that smartphones can be picky about stereo/mono and on top of it instagram live encodes at 64mpbs mono. I'm interested in seeing how the maono units work just for fun. In the meantime I got a Yamaha AG03MK2 on a warehouse deal from Amazon and it is phenomenal.
