Perfect Mixer for radio broadcasting!

MrWeed. 18.07.2020

In my opinion, the Airlite mixer is a very good investment for small or bigger radios. Here's why.
When I got the mixer (P.S. very good handling!), I was amazed by the quality of the product such as buttons, faders.
I needed time to understand the mixer and while I was learning with it, the manual actually helped me a lot. I couldn't learn all features by myself and I needed to use forums to set up the modules and programs which are included with mixer. It was a problem that I wasted a lot of time and effort but it was worth it. Also, there's an issue that I can't find the solution by connecting the phone to the mixer.
I love the mixer, especially for the flexibility. You can play the music for the radio and watch videos in Youtube at the same time without people hearing it!
The sound is much better than my previous Behringer mixer.
Until today, I haven't tested the mixer fully and this encourages me to explore the features in the mixer.

A great compact mixer

dl198 25.07.2018

We're using this in our production and backup on air studio for a local radio station. USB soundcards are great, but it's also great that it has the ability to switch to a line input for other sources (e.g. a professional sound card). We're using Neumann TLM 49s which sound great on this mixer. USB control is also a plus. We're able to set it up to interface with out playout software. Also great to have the ability to listen to our FM return on the desk. VOIP is also good - especially with the talkback.

Very satisfied with this mixer.

Great Little Mixer

D&RUser 09.05.2021

This is used with the PlayoutOne radio automation software which interfaces perfectly with the 4 main players coming up on the 4 USB inputs. The free D&R keyboard mapper software allows me to start the players and quick keys directly from the mixer. This makes playing songs and jingles a breeze. It's as though they're made for each other. Voice tracking is easy as the mixer has a separate output for the microphone without interfering with what's playing out on air. The only slight downside is the main presenter headphone socket at the top of the mixer which means your headphone lead trails over the surface. It's a shame it can't be mounted on the back (like the guest headphone socket) or on the opposite side at the front. For the price this mixer does a lot!

Kleines aber feines Mischpult

Anonymous 12.01.2017

Ich habe mir das Mischpult für den Betrieb eines Webradios geholt, weil ich etwas benötigte das mit der Broadcasting Software kompatibel ist und von Haus aus unterstützt wird. Hiermit wurde ich tatsächlich sehr glücklich.

Ich möchte hier einmal die positiven und negativen Punkte, wovon es leider auch einen gibt, kurz erläutern.

--- Positiv ---
* Ein gedrucktes Handbuch + Schaltplan (Nicht nur ein Handbuch zum Download).
* Saubere und verständliche Anordnung der Kontrollelemente.
* Eigenschaften der Kanäle über die Software sehr einfach und übersichtlich programmierbar.
* Schnelle und unproblematische Installation.
* Regelmäßige Firmware Updates um kleinere Fehler zu beseitigen.

--- Negativ ---
Die Fader hätten etwas hochwertiger sein können. Leider sind sie, zumindest bei mir, relativ dünn und gefühlt wackelig wo ich angst habe das sie kaputt gehen könnten. Während einer Sendung kann man dies allerdings gut ignorieren. Dafür leider 1 Stern abzug, denn die 1 - 2 Euro könnte man noch mit reinstecken können.

Alles in allem habe ich hier jetzt ein Mischpult mit sehr vielen Funktionen und ausreichend Anschlüssen um 3 Mikros, 1 PC, Plattenspieler und Telefonie über eine übersichtliche Plattform zu betreiben.
