The Mackie MobileMix delivers untethered sound to creators in a powerfully streamlined kit. Featuring eight channels, two mic/instrument preamps, Bluetooth, stereo line inputs and effects, MobileMix is ideal for on-the-go A/V production, live sound and streaming. Lightweight and compact, this mixer offers enhanced mobility through USB power delivery. At the same time, legendary Mackie sound and build quality is inherent, even in a unit as travelable as this one, so you can completely declutter your on-location mixing needs without giving up fidelity or durability. The Mackie MobileMix is a forward-thinking device, offering a diverse range of creatives the opportunity to maximize their sonic potential in an ultraportable, easy-to-use setup.

Mackie MobileMix Live Performance

Iconic Mackie Sound, Anywhere

MobileMix forgoes an IEC power cable in favor of USB, which significantly increases its portability—especially for livestreams and video production. An undercarriage compartment designed to hold a rechargeable USB battery pack (sold separately) is a key attribute of the Mackie MobileMix, empowering users to embrace modernity and bring the content creation station with them wherever they go. It's also possible to run the mixer using a USB adapter or from the powered port of a laptop. On the musicians' side, taking advantage of a battery pack means one less AC outlet to worry about, freeing up space for keyboards, amplifiers, PA speakers and other essential components of a live performance—an invaluable MobileMix characteristic in situations where power is limited.

Mackie MobileMix Connections

Professional Inputs and Outputs

Mackie incorporated a flexible variety of inputs and outputs into the MobileMix, catering to a wide range of audio needs. Two Onyx preamps with combination XLR and 1/4" jacks support microphones or Hi-Z instruments, and stereo line inputs help bring additional external sound sources, like keyboards, into the fold. For streamers and video producers, a duo of TRRS connections let you connect two smartphones or cameras at once, to send and receive sound from both. Meanwhile, a convenient Bluetooth channel makes it easy to wirelessly stream music or bring in phone calls. Closely monitor it all with a dedicated headphone output, and send the full mix to a PA system or external recording device from the mixer’s main outs. Alternatively, dedicated Mix outputs with independent level control allow direct recording to phones, tablets or DSLR cameras.

Mackie MobileMix Effects

Onboard Effects for Polished Sound

MobileMix may be small, but it's still a fully featured portable console, complete with an array of effects for real-time polishing. Two-band EQ on channels 1–4 helps dial in a clear, impactful mix intuitively, and switchable high-pass filters on the Onyx preamps offer one-touch mud reduction on sources like vocals and guitar. Once you’re satisfied with overall levels and equalization, three different digital reverbs create a cohesive space for your sounds to live, "gluing" them together with dimension. These include Plate, Hall and Reverb+Delay settings, guided by an overall FX Level and individual sends on each of the eight channels for the perfect mix.

Mackie MobileMix Bluetooth

Two-Way Bluetooth Streaming

With its versatile I/O, including two-way Bluetooth, the Mackie MobileMix makes it easy to produce live content, such as podcasts, on the fly. Mix a host's and guest's microphones to taste, then take the output straight to a DSLR to capture audio and video simultaneously to a single device. The MobileMix Bluetooth connection is exceptionally convenient in this scenario, in which it can be used to stream music beds, play sound effect drops and introduce outside callers to the show. Capture both ends of the call while Mix Minus eliminates echo, and you have the centerpiece of a comprehensive podcast studio in the MobileMix by Mackie.

The Mackie MobileMix is a formidable eight-channel analog console with digital effects, Bluetooth and dedicated I/O for smartphones, tablets, cameras and more. It simplifies A/V production, streaming and live sound, all while being optionally powered by a USB battery pack. Designed to move, the MobileMix is as durable as it is flexible, becoming a powerful sonic hub for on-the-go creation and performance.
