Vocal mic adapter/mixer
Hi all
Looking for a vocal mic adapter/mixer product that someone posted before but I cannot find. It allowed 3 mic inputs to be then put into a single channel. Seemed like a small company product and no batteries or external power required. Planning to get a Bose S1 pro this weekend and this seemed like a good solution to have guitar in one channel plus 3 vocals for second channel. Think it was around $100. Thanks and please repost if you know what I need |

I can't find a 3-way unit and this one doesn't offer any control for levels, but here is a 2-way unit:
https://www.galaxyaudio.com/products/jib-c The same company makes a $75 unit that takes 2 mic, and 2 other stereo inputs and offers level controls, but it requires batteries and gets bad reviews (mostly) on Amazon. It is called the JIB/MM.

That’s a very nice looking accessory! But I’d also suggest you look for a used Bose T1 - it’ll give you your 3 mics with alot of individual adjustments on each, plus your guitar on the 4th channel. More expensive and requires separate power, but should work really well with the S1 -

The Mini XLR Mixer that does not use batteries is a 'passive' device that uses potentiometers to do the mixing. I don't see this working well (if at all) with condenser mics that need phantom power. Also with resistive mixing I'm kinda thinking it may put a lower termination impedance on a dynamic mic which may alter the frequency response reducing the high end response of the mic.
For the money the ART ProMix is a better value. An educated guess tells me there are probably less than $30 of parts total in the passive mixer. |

Posted on a forum where people regularly pay many thousands of dollars for instruments that contain a few hundred dollars worth of materials -
Their charges are more than worth their efforts and expertise -

I think you might be looking for the AVLifesavers XLR mix. It’s passive and you loose about 6db of gain which is easy to make up with the input gain on a mixer or the volume control on your amp.
http://avlifesavers.com/xlrmix.htm If you look on eBay, there is currently one (mine) for auction. |

Thanks all. The AV Lifesavers is the unit I saw. Will look at the others too. End goal is to have easy set up with battery powered PA speaker for 1 guitar and 3 vocals for backyard or small venues. Have bigger system when needed so this would be for grab and go set up in 5 minute situations.
Lkingston—curious why you are selling your Avlifesaver unit |

I got an Elite Acoustics D6-8 which has plenty of channels. |
