Mixing Desks

Mixing desks are an essential part of live music and allow you to connect multiple microphones and sound sources and channel them through your PA System. Acting as the hub of your system, mixing desks all have features that allow you to provide a polished production, including faders for creating a good mix, mute buttons for cutting out inactive channels and EQ for dialling down harsh frequencies. Many digital mixing desks also feature effects like reverb and delay which is useful for filling out a mix or softening vocals.

Many people also use mixers for guitar, whether it's an acoustic or electric guitar you play live, plugging into a mixer through a DI Box can sometimes be the best way to get your sound to the audience without having to mess around with microphones and numerous cables.
