Tiny sub mixer

So I’m looking for a tiny sub mixer for my new live setup.

I just want to mix the kick and bass synth together so that can have them go to the same input on OT.

The Behringer MX400 seems to be an option.

Also I found omnitronic lh-010

Anyone has any experience with these or have suggestions for alternatives?

Red panda makes a tiny pedalboard mixer. Mixer - Red Panda

Smallest and simplest I know of is the MyVolts MickXer which is a tiny passive 5-1 stereo mixer

Nice, thanks :blush:

Was looking at this too but was not sure if it was for line level or just pedals

I have one of these - passive, works pretty well and has volume pots:

I went through a few passive mixers and always struggled with volume loss. Grabbed one of these Moukey mixers and it works great

I was looking at this one for something else:) wasn’t aware that it could be used as a 2 to 1 mono submixer. That’s cool

Thanks everyone for nice suggestions😊

Teenage Engineering, if you’re looking for the affordable option

Just ordered one of these. Thanks!

I’ve used the Rolls MX41b for similar sometimes — four 1/4" and 1/8" inputs to one output, passive, with (small but usablel) faders, built like a tank and sounds great: MX41b Four Channel Mixer | Rolls Corporation - Real Sound

They’ve got a bunch of similar mixers and other audio problem solvers, too.

The Poly Beebo pedal has 4 ins and 4 outs configurable in any which way + fx synth drum midi up the wazoo. Would work as a super flexible compact option for expanding OT inputs (and outputs).

Does the stereo buttons on each channel unify the two mono outputs to one stereo input properly panned left and right?

Is the humming/noise that reviwers on Amazon report a problem you have experienced?

I believe that the per channel mono/stereo is for accepting a single stereo TRS then distributing it to the two outputs. I don’t own any synths that send stereo on a single cable so I’ve never tested it to see if it works. Inputs 1-4 go to output A, 5-8 go to output B, and you can press the Channel Mix button to flatten all 8 inputs to Mono or Dual-Mono.

Definitely not the quietest thing I own. Running off a USB hub with a bunch of synths introduced noise that could be noticed when everything was shut off, but running it from an isolated powerbar w/USB was acceptable for my uses. It might be a bit too noisy for studio use where comp/limiting could elevate the noise floor, but for OP’s live usecase, I don’t think it would be an issue (it wasn’t for me).

Thanks braken.
If only Teenage Engineering’s TX-6 was a little bigger and accepted 1/4-inch jacks so you wouldn’t need adapters I think it would be a great choice for gigs. But I can’t show up at a venue with that tiny mixer full of adapters.

I own the Split Mix 4 posted above but I don’t use it because of the stereo cables required to use it.

I love the idea of the TX-6 but there’s no way I can make the $1,650 CAD pricetag work in my head haha
