I need a small portable mixer so that I can run my OP-1 and OP-Z thru it on the go. Ideally two stereo inputs. I just got a Zoom H4N, only to realize if I want to run 2 inputs in, it’s gotta be mono. Is anyone aware of anything that will meet these needs (multi stereo 1/8 or 1/4 input, battery powered)
I got a passive mixer that someone here makes. Love it! You control the volume via the units rather than on mixer. I realize that might not work for you.

I’m using this one: https://www.amazon.ca/JUST-MIXER-Audio-DJ-Mixer/dp/B01LPT8JY8
Super small, 3 stereo 1/8 inputs and decent sound quality (you may be reading about ground noise in internet reviews, but this occurs only when connecting it a laptop with usb. With batteries or usb to battery pack, it’s sounding perfect)

Oh that is perfect. And 1/5th the price of this H4n Pro.

Honestly that wouldn’t be bad but I often find that TE stuff doesn’t output very loud all on it’s own. I’m probably doing something wrong.
+1 on the just mixer. i got the pink one its perfect
I checked out the mixer @johngredin posted, as far as I can tell it’s $104.56, but the orange & pink versions show $51. Just thought I would throw that out there, they seem to be the exact same mixer just different color?? Think I’m gonna go for the orange!

Try the .com link instead of the .ca, I was having the same problem
@boomerjackson - The prices arent right or a different currency or something?
Figured something wasnt right… big price difference just for the color. If it’s $51, Im def buying it, but not so sure about the higher price. Not sayin it isnt worth it…just sayin.
just use .com like he said
https://www.amazon.com/JUST-MIXER-Audio-DJ-Mixer/dp/B01LPT8JY8
they are all $40 regardless of color
they sell em on eBay too
I think the deal breaker is that the mark 1 doesn’t have a headphone out and the mark 2 is not battery powered.
A Zoom h5 with the breakout adapter or an h6 might provide enough inputs, battery power, headphone socket, audio interface functionality and recording.
So I ended up with the Just Mixed posted above. 100% perfect. I have to decide if I want to return this H4N now.
