Hey all! What are you (or a band you know) doing to handle multiple keyboards?
I currently am running 4 separate lines into Paris for 2 separate keybaords,
but I want to reduce that to 2 (stereo) AND without spending an arm and a
leg. I see the cheap Behringer mixer, but they have TOO much stuff on them
and I am worried about noise. I look though the online music stores and
I can't seem to find anything that I am looking for... and I am not sure
what I am looking for exactly. I'd like it to have 4 1/4" inputs from the
keyboards, able to mix those 4 in a stereo and have both a XLR and 1/4" stereo
output, be small enough to mount on a keyboard stand.. and be cute too!
lol.

Any suggestions?

Mackie 1202 mixers seem to be in the sub $100 price range.

I have no idea who makes them, but passive mixers can do what you want
and are very small and cheap and clean and you don't have to plug them
into the wall = better for the environment. ;-)

THAT'S what I am looking for... but now, where to find these little creatures.
Well, guess I'll start with sorry ebay, but I prefer a REAL vendor. I have
too many nightmares from ebay.

In fact, I think I have one of these and will have to dig through the garage.
Bought it long time ago and never found a use for it.

Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions.... ~ Ed

Get one of those little Peavey's with the blue & orange knobs -
I forget which series they're calling them. They're cheap AND
quiet!
