Mackie ProFX6 USB Compact Mixer with 24/192khz Recording & FX!

#Mackie #mixerstreaming #podcasting
Is this the most versatile, super compact Mixer for the money?
This is Mackie's Version 3 of this very popular compact Mixer / Audio Interface.
The Mackie ProFX6v3 6 channel Mixer offers 2 pro quality Onyx Mic Preamps, 4 Line Level Inputs, 24Bit-192kHz USB recording and 24 killer Effects! It offers true 48 volt Phantom Power for both Mic preamps, a whopping 60dB of input gain, and has a locking DC power connector and a real power switch. It can do Multitrack recording as well as Mix Minus Podcasting, Live Streaming, and Loopback, all in a size smaller than your average iPad mini!

If you're looking at Mixers in this incredibly competitive price range, you're probably also looking at the Soundcraft 8FX as well, or at least you should be, to compare and determine which of the two is best for your setup. These are the 2 most powerful and compact mixers in this price range.
If you want to compare the two, that full length Soundcraft review video can be found here:

We put this little powerhouse mixer to the test in a professional audio recording studio to see if the preamps are truly ready for a Pro Audio environment. We test the setups for Podcasting / Live Streaming, Multitrack Recording, and live show performance.

This is literally THE BEST demo and tutorial I’ve ever seen on the Mackie ProFX6v3!! Bravo 👏🏽 Bravo 👏🏽
Thanks so much, you even showed the Mix Minus and Recording setup into a MacBook 💻

[TheMainEvnt]

Dude. I have watched like 8 videos on this mixer trying to find out why my streaming and recordings sound like total trash. None of them touched on the -20/-40 depending on cable. Thank you man. Your are the bomb.

[samsassoli]

This is the best video of the Mackie Profxv3 I have ever seen, thank you !

[freddylopez]

Thank you so much. This is by far one of the most concise and easy to follow reviews on these smaller mixers or most reviews for that matter. I've been on the fence with the Yamaha 6 and 10 channel mixers but you have made it clear that I can be happy with this Mackie version. Your channels looks awesome and you capture beautiful video and obviously great audio. I'm in. FL

[shotkaraoke]

Terrific rundown and explanation. Learned more in this one video than about 10 of the others I've viewed combined. Thanks!

[gotonkar]

Wow. Best video for ProFx6v3 I found.
I bought one earlier today and am getting used to the particulars, for a while thinking maybe I had a defective unit. Nope, I just need to understand this machine properly and your configurations are exactly what I needed. I was surprised with the 'call-in during podcast' scenario. I'll be re-watching multiple times.

Your production quality is impressive. Love the magnifying call outs. Definitely deserving of a 'subscribe'.

Thank you so much for this. I knew I made a good choice in a small desktop mixer, but didn't realize just how good. Mackie should hook you up.

[GraziTheMan]

I discovered you when I purchased your Cubase Crash Course for Busy Producers on Udemy and you are my new favorite Youtuber. Zero wasted time. Jam Packed information in an easily digestible delivery. What a treat.

[ansmfella]

Thank you for this thorough and concise review. Very helpful demonstration of this mixer! your time and help!

[JR-lxnn]

Another no=nonsense well scripted review that says a lot without all the ego nonsense other reviewers spew. Thanks. JT

[evedotcom]

Just set this up today and very impressed! I was having trouble with the USB 3-4 output. The FAQs on the mackie website + other sites didn't help, but this video did. Really well done video, thank you!

[todds.]

I've been looking for a versatile--but also compact--mixer for everything from solo acoustic gigs, to recording, to in-ear-monitor stuff when playing live drums. I think this is the one I'm gonna go with. Thanks for this review. It helped a lot.

[stavrospapadimitriou]

If this thing only had a 3-band EQ it would be a winner!

[Buisness]

I purchased this mixer around two months ago. However! I haven't gotten around to using it fully due to the USB drivers unable to load to my PC. Got it from Micro Center Fantastic tutorial.

[scottystef]

What a great tutorial on small mixer use overall. Great production, top notch

[samfarabee]

Thank you so much for this! I've been looking at this board and had a few questions that other reviews just didn't answer ... You did, very thorough. Much appreciated. I really want to get into home recording and live solo gigs, sounds like this is the perfect choice for my use case.

[entireto]

one of the best reviews out there on the internet! Thank you very much! Writing down the comment to praise the effort that was put to this video!

[vanceshepherd]

Thank you, sir! The only mix/minus tutorial I've seen on this mixer. Tremendous help!

[Rugerman]

I have both the ProFX6v3 & 10v3
I’m a Mobile DJ and I’m now using the 6 for gigs and I’ll be using the 10 Channel for Podcast whenever I need a 3 or 4 Microphone 🎙 setup.

This video is sheer perfection 👌🏾

[VVellieMan]

Great video, looks really professional. One question that's still not clear... can you get a clean signal out of a mic input via USB to my DAW while the vocalist has some reverb/FX in his headphone mix? I suspect not and that the USB out to the computer includes the FX but would really appreciate if you could clarify. Thanks again.

[AndyKow]

One of the best informative video review! Thanks for taking the time to make it. I'm definitely gonna get one.
