    Default Wanted: small mixer with XLR outs

    I only need something small (missus) : 4 channels would do it, but most diddy mixers don't have the main outs on XLRs. Anyone got anything smallish/cheapish?

    Probably one of the best small mixers that have xlr outs is the Mackie 1202VLZ3, although it's not exactly cheap. Cheaper than this and there are going to be some corners cut somewhere.

    Tim - Why the need for XLR outs?

    In most cases, as long as the mixer has balanced outs, just use a TRS - XLR cable..

    Sometimes there can be issues, hence my question as to the situation..

    Err - that's a very good point - I was looking at the small mixers, seeing jack outputs and assuming they were just vanilla unbalanced outputs silly boy. Will re-look at them.

    @tehLORD - that's overkill for me - certainly more than I have to spend anyway, ta anyway.

    That has TRS jacks on the outputs (tip, ring, sleave) so should be wired balanced yes

    I have a Yamaha MG16/6FX for sale... I dont have a pic but below is one I found online of the same desk... To be fair it may be a little big but it is small enough to be rack mounted so really it isnt big at all...
