Rolls MX153 Reviews

Great Little Mixer

By Chris

I was searching for an ultra compact mixer to handle a few stereo sources. I looked at another Rolls but it was larger and used 1/4 inch RTS connectors and I needed RCA. So far it has worked perfectly. Full disclosure: I am not using therestaurant features like ducking. I would have preferred not to have Bass and Treble controls, but that is an extremely minor point. This one fit my needs perfectly!

Excellent for mobile system.

I have several of these mixers. They are the primary component for my sound system. I have 2 wireless mics and a PC for music running through the mixer. I am a stage performer and love the simplicity and reliability of the Rolls MX153. I just put another system together with a Bose L1 Compact and it is rock-solid. If you need a small and simple mixer, this is the one!

See any errors on this page?

question

will this be good for video recording, i.e. piano music?
Asked by: Anonymous
This mixer is more of an install type unit with the ducking features for jukebox and/or paging functions. It's limited EQ would preclude any tuning. If you are looking to record directly to a computer an audio interface would be more appropriate. How many inputs you would be recording at the same time would be the deciding factor on which to purchase. Personally I like the Focusrite Scarlett series for value and quality.
