iRig Mix Review
The
iRig Mix is a mixer designed for people that want to DJ with an iPod or
iPad. Thinking that you need a
specific mixer to DJ with an iPad or iPhone is a silly idea. You can use any mixer to do this by
simply buying a pair of Y-cables at your local electronics store. That being said, why would I
bother to get an iRig Mix? Size.
Build
I was disappointed with the weight and material used for the iRig Mix. I have old love letters that are heavier than this thing and for $100 (USD) they could have come up with some kind of metal casing instead of the flimsy plastic this is made of. A curious infant could probably pick this thing up and break it almost effortlessly. Maybe “light-weight” is part of their sales pitch, but I would rather have “sturdy” over “light” any day. For fear that it would be destroyed, when I took the mixer out for a gig run I encased it in a microphone case while traveling. To the plastic body of the iRig Mix I say, “Boooooooooooo!”
Sound
The iRig Mix sound…
