Another great option from Shure is the SCM410 4-Channel Automatic Mixer. This mixer is a more advanced version of the option above. It has all the features of the SCM268 plus automatic level control as well as EQ for each input.
The automatic level control activates when more than one microphone is plugged into the mixer. It reads the mic levels and balances them out so that all inputs are evenly heard on the mix. This feature makes this option worth its higher price tag. It does your job of adjusting audio levels for you!
Just like the other option from Shure, this mixer is easily transported and works very well as an audio mixer for deposition videos with multiple microphones. All three options are great values within their respective price ranges, but this one gets my highest recommendation for the automatic level controls.
- Automatic level control
- 4 microphone inputs
- Compact & durable design
Review:
When I’m on an assignment where there are lots and lots of mics, I count on Shure automatic mixers to deliver a bright, clean audio feed to my headset and digital recorder. With Shure automatic mixers, I know I’m going to hear the speaker’s name the instant it’s spoken, not a second or two later.
And forget about running a manual mixer with all slides brought up until the room rings with feedback. Only active mics are activated — instantly, intelligently, and automatically — with the Shure SCM410. Say good-bye to muddy sounding manual sound systems.
Move up to the SCM410. It’s lightweight, compact, easy to set up. Dial it in and forget about it. It’s the one thing you won’t have to worry about at your next big meeting.
