Can I plug a condenser microphone straight in?

Yes. The mixer provides 48V phantom power, which condenser microphones need. Turn phantom power on only for mics that require it.

Does it work with a phone or computer?

It has Bluetooth and USB connections, so you can bring in audio from a phone, tablet or computer. The built-in sound card handles the audio path without a separate interface.

How many microphones and instruments can I connect?

It is a 4-channel mixer, so plan on up to four inputs total. A typical setup is two mics plus a guitar and a backing track.

Is it good for live streaming?

It is designed for web live broadcast and recording, and the USB sound card suits streaming from a computer. For multi-guest streams you may run out of channels.

What comes in the box?

The box contains the 4-channel audio mixer, a USB power cable and a user manual. Microphones and cables are not included.

Is it a good first mixer?

It suits beginners because the controls are simple and phantom power is built in. If you need many inputs, effects or studio-grade preamps, a larger mixer is a better fit.
