field mixers
 

by the way. If you are after a good little cheap field mixer, with phantom power, see the Berringer website.
Mine only cost me around US$250 new.
Excellent results running my bayer-dynamic condenser shotgun and lapel mics.
if you need the model no. post back...i dont have it here right this minute

Hi Murray,

I think you're referring to the German audio company Behringer http://www.behringer.com/03_behringe...mid=3&lang=eng
I was unaware they made field mixers. I knew they made DJ mixers and other components for the audio industry, so the model number might come in handy.

looks like it could come in handy.

I have the Behringer Eurorack MXB1002 field mixer.

It is a 10 channel mixer that can use batteries when in the field.

The construction is really solid. All metal casing. I got it for $130.

yes. that seems to be the same as mine.
Phantom power facility is good,
quality is great, i had a canvas "pouch" made so it was weatherresistant and still accessible, if anyone is interested, i could arrange a pic
i bought the mixer in australia for $US 250. sounds like you got a better deal.

Looking around at old posts on this subject, and I've considered this as a cheap field mixer as well.

Could anyone who uses the Behringer comment on battery life in the field? Does it indicate when the batteries are dying, if it's a short (less than 6 hour) lifespan?
