What Is a Digital Audio Mixer?

A mixer is a device that processes audio and is divided into software and hardware types. Due to different principles, the applications of software-type mixers and hardware-type mixers are also very different. The former is mainly used for audio processing, and the latter is mainly used for sound settings.

A mixer is a device that processes audio and is divided into software and hardware types. Due to different principles, the applications of software-type mixers and hardware-type mixers are also very different. The former is mainly used for audio processing, and the latter is mainly used for sound settings.

A software type mixer is a method of mixing multiple audio files and line input audio signals into a single audio file. A hardware type mixer is a method of mixing various audio signals (4 inputs, 1 output ); Through the internal circuit of the machine, adjust the volume knob of each branch to mix the input audio signals and output. In summary, the mixing input of a software type mixer can be digital audio files and line input audio signals, the output is a digital audio file, and the mixing input of a hardware type mixer is analog audio of different lines. Signal, output is still analog signal.

Software type mixer, the most representative is

The mixer is not only suitable for home singing, but also can be used for stage performances and multi-person conferences in conference rooms. Multiple machines can be used in series. If you need multiple microphones to use at the same time, you can also choose a multi-function mixer (12 inputs, one output.) Powerful four-in-one circuit design: You can input four groups of audio signals at the same time, and each group of circuits does not interfere with each other. No crosstalk.

Each signal input has independent

The input signal of the hardware type mixer can be the signal of the computer audio output (with antistatic design circuit); the wired microphone signal; the wireless microphone signal; the audio signal of CD / VCD / DVD; the audio signal of the radio headset; MP3 / MP4 audio signals, etc. Suitable for home, dance hall, recording studio.

The input signal of the software type mixer can be the input signal of digital audio files, computer system sounds, computer terminals (such as microphones), suitable for audio editing.
