Mixing seven different audio sources onto one set of speakers?
I currently have three Amiga CD32's and one A4000T taking up one corner of my room, with additional audio expansions I would like to mix seven stereo signals into one, as to avoid using a multiple speaker setup.
I had sort of achieved this using a series of preamp/mixers, audio switchers and Bluetooth transmitters, but it's messy business and after not using them for awhile it's sometimes hard to remember what way I have everything configured. Can anyone recommend hardware that can mix all seven audio sources into one, that is high quality with minimal loss, and doesn't require separate preamps? I'm ideally looking something costing in the low hundreds, and not thousands to achieve this, is still available to buy and not legacy hardware. Audio sources to mix: Amiga CD32 Amiga CD32 (native audio mixed through to Roland SC-88 Midi player) AMIGA CD32/Prodmodule (native mixed though MAS Player 2 Pro AMIGA 4000T ( Native audio mixed through PRISMA MEGAMIX) ZZ9000AX **Internal mixing not working on my machine** MP32L MIDI AMIGARADIO (parallel port device) |

Why preamps? Why not a simple mixer with the number of inputs that you need?

Something like this would do the job: https://www.behringer.com/product.ht...lCode=0602-AAI

Yup, I bought an ex-demo, 5-channel Behringer audio mixer from a music gear store about 15 years ago for a fraction of the retail price and it's still serving me well for mixing audio from my various machines.

I've got an Omnitronic EMX-5 mixer mounted to the wall (in a rack mount).
has 6+2 inputs and is absolutely fine. |

You can't go wrong with the Behringer proposed.
I'm using an Hughes & Kettner Target Double 8 (8 stereo channels) for this kind of stuff. |

The Behringer looks perfect, thanks.
I wish had asked this a couple of years ago instead of buying a passive mixer and a preamp not powerful enough to run it properly, then messing with other unnecessary stuff creating cable hell. A good review explaining the RX1602 [ Show youtube player ] |
