Nice bang for the buck Apr 05, 2008
Great little mixer for the money. I use this thing to get audio into and out of my computer. Pretty solidly built and it's small, so it's great for a desktop application. If I needed more i/o I would definitely consider one of the bigger models. For $60 you can't beat this thing. The balanced inputs are quiet enough and actually sound pretty good (they compare favorably to the Mackie pre's - probably the same basic spec). If you need a simple little mixer, I'd recommend it.

A lot of mixer for the money Jan 07, 2008
I am a live sound engineer and use large format mixers that have lots of bells and whistles. I am also a musician and was looking for a compact mixer that would work well to unite a Yamaha Motif ES8 and a Hammond XK3 for live performances. After looking at offerings from several manufacturers, I decided on the Tapco mix 60. My decision was based on the size (it fits on top of my Motif very nicely) and the fact that most mixers in this price/size category do not have a 3 band EQ on all channels. EQ control is very important even though my keyboards have various tone controls. It is not the most transparent 6 channel mixer, and I would not use it for recording, but it works very well as a keyboard mixer and I would expect it should do well in most very small applications. Great buy for the money.

Very good mixer for the price. Nov 06, 2007
Well I was starting my own podcast and I needed a mixer. I'm on a small budget, so I didn't want to drop a ton of money on it. I tried setting this up without reading the manual and I definitely wouldn't suggest it. After I read the manual, it was pretty easy to set up. I only have two complaints about the product though.

1. There's no on/off switch for the input. I sure wish I could just turn off an input without turning the volume all the way down on it.

2. On the merged 3/4 and 5/6 inputs, if you only have one plugged in (right channel for instance) it is bridged across left and right. However, if you plug in the second input, 3 goes to left and 4 goes to right, instead of bridging them across both channels. I know that it's the way it's supposed to work, but I wish it would bridge them.

Other than that, it does a great job. Very solid little mixer. I'd definitely buy it again.

Great price - well laid out - a couple of issues Oct 25, 2007
I just received this unit and so have not actually Used it yet (ive used Mackie 1202vlz alot in the past). Couple of notes i think people should know. I think the best things about it are the price (Great deal for $60) and it seems pretty rugged and well laid out. Its between 1/2-2/3 the size of the Mackie 1202vlz.
I have two main complaints - A) its made in China, and B) it has a Mongo sized wall wart (power supply) with a proprietory power connection. I was spoiled the Mackie 1202 having a universal power connection and i dont think it had a wall wart.
Anyhow - one reason i got this unit was i wanted something rugged yet small. Its a little bigger than i wanted, but i could be fine with that - its the big heavy wall wart and the odd power connection that annoys me. Seems like in the modern age they should be able to make these smaller and with universal connections. Anyhow - just wanted to share this. Another pro is it has phantom power - which is great in a mixer that costs $60.
