Vivitar Audio Mixer, Multiple Sound Pads & Effects for Vlogging, Black

I bought this Vivitar Audio Mixer to use for my vlogging setup, and it's been a decent addition. The sound pads are fun to play around with, and they add a nice touch to my videos. It's pretty easy to figure out once you start using it, but it does take some time to get used to all the features. The quality is good for beginners or casual use, but if you're doing something more professional, it might not meet all your needs. Overall, it's a solid option for anyone just starting out.

I bought this soundbox for my tik toks as it has more features than the soundbox i was ysing prior. It was working fine up until a week ago when i kept hearing static coming through. Initially thought it was my headset, so I purchased a new set. Still had static. Next, I tried a new microphone, still static. Lastly i unplugged the spundbox and set up my old soundbox, no static using the same headphones and microphone. I liked the extra sounds provided on this box, but even though i tried different settings using the different levers and dials, i couldnt control the volume level, and my listeners complained because they were louder than i could control.

This is useless. Choose something else. There are much better options for similar costs. DO NOT BUY!!! This will not have the peripherals you want or need. You'll find yourself looking for particular cords just to use it. It does not come with cables. Incredibly dissatisfied.

This was almost awesome. It feels/ looks cheap but it cost $20, so sure. All the functions work (and it can do a lot!). Worked well with my M4 Mac as audio controller, interface, mixer— plug and play, instant, no setup/ drivers required. Input/ Output works fine—— UNTIL you turn the main input knob past 3/4 it crackles— bad. Then upon playing with it further there are crackling issues all over the place, like if you touch a cable or move the unit while audio is playing. Sad cuz it coulda been an absolute STEAL, ha. I guess it's a decent toy? But it's not a toy it's a tool— that doesn't work. :-(

For recording any audio through a laptop with a superior microphone and the free audacity app. Well, the least expensive way to do it, for podcasters with limited funds.

simple. that's what I was looking for i'm new at learning how to do things like this. it was easy to get a few beats going.And it was also easy for me to understand I plan on doing many more things with it, but I started slow and the goal was to understand how the product worked.And that is very simple and effective.

A friend that vlogs has this item and device seems easy to use. Since I am just starting, setup was pretty easy and connected quickly to my tablet. Still having a blast trying out all the features and adding sounds where needed. Btw, sound is crystal clear. Recommended for beginners and price point was perfect to get started.

This is the perfect entry level audio mixer! I purchased this for my 12 year old nephew who is interested in mixing his own music and sharing on YouTube, and since this is plug-and-play, he was up and running with his iPad right away! It is simple to use yet has so many functions for his YouTube videos and his music mixing. I definitely won aunt of the year with this birthday present. I am not tech savvy, but based off of his enthusiasm and his level of use, it is perfect for the entry level audio mixer of any age! Highly recommended!

As someone who works in the streaming industry and uses the Vivitar Audio Mixer with Multiple Sound Pads %26 Effects daily, I can say it's a budget-friendly option for beginner vloggers and streamers. It's not a professional-grade mixer like a Rodecaster Pro or a GoXLR, but for the price, it gets the job done—especially if you're just starting out or need a simple plug-and-play setup. The mixer itself is lightweight and compact, which is great if you don't have a ton of desk space. The knobs and buttons feel decent—not premium, but not cheap enough to feel like they'll break easily. The built-in sound pads are a nice touch; they come pre-loaded with basic effects like applause, laughter, and air horns, but you can also program custom sounds, which is a plus. Now, for the most important part: the sound quality. It's decent, but don't expect top-tier clarity. If you're using a dynamic or condenser mic, you might notice some background noise or slight hissing. However, with proper gain adjustments and some post-processing in OBS or Adobe Audition, you can clean it up fairly well. The built-in reverb and pitch effects are fun but can be gimmicky if overused. One of the best things about this mixer is how easy it is to set up. It connects via USB and works with most streaming software (OBS, Streamlabs, Discord, etc.) without any complicated drivers. It also has Bluetooth functionality, which is handy if you want to mix in music or take calls while streaming. The multiple input options (XLR, 3.5mm, and USB) make it flexible for different setups, but don't expect full phantom power support for high-end condenser mics. If you're a beginner streamer, podcaster, or vlogger looking for an affordable way to add some basic audio mixing and effects to your content, this is a great starting point. If you're more advanced and need pro-level audio quality, you'll probably outgrow this pretty quickly. Great for beginners and casual users, but limited for serious content creators who need studio-quality sound.

This is so much fun. We podcast just fun stuff as a family and this added sound effects and things that really elevated our videos and made them fun! It was simple and easy to use even for someone who isn't very tech savvy! Worth the buy! My kids want one for when they're gaming with friends to be able to do sound effects now too.
