Is all routing of signals/effects done within mixer, or do I need balanced &amp; unbalanced lines with quarter inch plugs? Not talking external effects?

The internal effects are internally routed. But I certainly have a bunch of balance and unbalanced patch cables, as well as other types of connectors. We would need to understand what you are trying to do in order to give you more specific answers.

The mixer would use standard microphone balanced (XLR) cables to connect. As far as "360" goes, I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Hi, this unit does not "mix" the inputs via the USB input and it does not do so via the headphone/line outs. You can blend the two input sources in your recording software if it has the ability to select the input source from either left or right on each track. If your software records both tracks at once (stereo) you can still blend them using the balance control.More succinctly, you can't mix or blend these two inputs to one discreet channel either left or right from the device itself. This would be something you would do within your recording software.

Yes, inputs mixed and then output to where you want it (balanced or unbalanced)

From personal experience, if you are planning on using this for DJing (which you may not be since most mixers have a phono preamp), these receivers are not the way to go. Because of the processing, etc, it will cause a large delay between the audio you are getting from the mixer and the audio you will be hearing over the speakers. I use a separate, basic receiver for DJing with separate speakers instead of using the home's surround sound (which would have been awesome). Hope that helps.

Take a look at the image of the rear of the mixer. There is a left and right XLR out. Connect these to your amp or directly to your powered speakers.

I would add to the others that it sound neutral when the EQ bypassed. However, the EQ bypass only bypasses the EQ. The gain on each channel is not bypassed.

From what I understand from your question... The USB output should include everything coming from the front end of the mixer. All inputs should feed through to the USB interface however I do not use the USB for my purposes

Rock out!!!!Best solution would be to connect the computer into the mixer feeding the monitors then it is no different from any other source. If you are connecting directly to the computer headphone jack just be careful not to send too hot of a signal - if you hear any distortion at all then turn down the volume on the computer - and you will be fine.

Before you buy you might post this question on the PS Audio forum. The designer of the DirectStream DAC, Ted Smith, will likely be able to answer your question. Your amps' grounds are at differing potentials and I am thinking that the transformer is not going to help. Using the balanced and unbalanced together breaks the "balanced" aspect of the line but the ground loop is a different animal.

The output from your mixer should go to the mic or line input jack. The link output is to daisy chain to another monitor.

Check out the specks on the Xenyx. I think it has only one preamp. Also check your other equipment to see if they have preamps built into their systems. Any mixer is mainly for routing multiple units to the amps and then on to the speakers or speaker/amps. Most mixers have preamps as part of their input system but not all the inputs are preamps. You can usually tell by the xlr inputs which are always preamps. Juts make sure your mixer has the amount of preamps you need, but most amplifiers now have preamps built in. Feel free to emailme with more info about your system or what you want to do and I will be glad to help you. John

I pull mine through a mixer, into my interface and into my DAW. The only thing is is that you need to do this with mono cables otherwise your output will be terrible. I love how the volcas sound, so any effort you put into this will be well worth it. PS; I had low output until I switched to mono cables.

I ran my outputs through a radio shack 4 line microphone mixer (so I could mix in music from my iPod) and then from the mixer to my receiver. The mixer has volume controls to increase the signal to the receiver. I have had no problem with that setup other than having to avoid too much volume. I assume a preamp would work if you don't want to use a mixer. Hope this helps.

Hello Vectroxe This is a non-powered mixer which just sends an audio signal. wattage is not important as you are not sending power. You will need to send the signal to either a power amp which is creating the power and volume for speakers. Or, you will want to send the audio signal to a powered speaker(s) in order to get volume. You can use an audio mixer like this to mix several audio sources. for example, you can plug in a few microphones, keyboard, guitar, etc. each instrument or mike plugged in can be adjusted separately for volume, tone and effects. the effects on this mixer are excellent and the sound quality is clean and superb especially at this price point.

The mixer has only 1 (each) L & R speaker out and an output for a subwoofer. If a splitter cable wouldn't degrade the signal, that might be an option for another pair of speakers.

The DI box works on the input side of your mixer or amp. Whether you have speakers connected should make no difference.
