The iO MIX provides all of the necessary connections, as well as compact four-channel mixer for making the most of every performance. There are even a few surprising pro-level features to enhance your recording experience.

Studio to Go

With its compact design, iO Mix is the perfect portable studio. Bring it to your band's practice space, the next gig, or a weekend recording session. The mixer section is intuitive and easy to use. Each mixer channel features both a volume fader and a pan knob, plus a two-band EQ for extended tone control. Multi-color LED meters make it easy to monitor your read more recording levels. Switch on the built-in limiters and enjoy recordings free from overload clipping. The headphone output -- complete with a separate volume control--and the direct switch allow for low-latency personal recording. You can even switch to Mono mode for accurate mixing.

Connect & Create

iO Mix offers a wealth of audio connection to make the most of any situation. Each input includes a gain control knob to provide proper recording levels. Switchable low-cut filters reduce low-frequency interference -- such as noise from microphone stands -- in both live mixing and recording situations. The four XLR+1/4" combo inputs accommodate nearly any audio source. Selectable phantom power allows for the use of professional condenser microphones. Input 1 features a level switch to accept an electric guitar or bass directly -- ideal for using iPad based effects! The main Left and Right outputs are balanced 1/4" jacks, perfect for connection to any sound system.

Wireless Whenever

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
The audio on mine is clean. I bought this as an easy way to do field recordings with multiple channels and it does that very well. It works as a mixer independently as well which is kind of cool. One bonus is that it worked with my iPhone 6 as well as my iPad 2. Sure, it didn't have any way to secure the phone, but it worked. (My old 1st gen alesis io dock didn't work with an iphone, just an ipad). My only complaint is the build quality it a little flimsy. It hasn't broken yet but I'll be transporting it in a hard case just to be safe. I don't think it will survive much abuse.
