Customer reviews about Rolls MX 42 – Thomann United Arab Emirates

Compact and rugged

Etz 22.03.2017

Bought it to use it not as mixer but 1 to 4 signal splitter.
Works flawlessly, even when used in this "alternative" way.
Just turn all the level knobs fully right and connect it backwards.

If used as mixer, you should to take into account, that as it is passive device and has approximately -12dB attenuation so you have to add gain afterwards to compensate signal loss.
On the other hand, as it is fully passive, it does not add any of its own "colorization" to sound passing trough so in this perspective it is almost fully "transparent".

Solidly built with full metal body to last forever and it is really tiny.

Really nice small passive utility mixer. I use it as a submixer in my live electronics rig and it works great as it doesn't need any power adaptor. Since it is passive you need to compensate for the gain loss. Since for me this is just submix before an actual mixer channel with mic preamps it works fine.

passive simple stereo mixer -

samwise77 22.04.2020

Had to file couple of openings for fadders as they were touching case, making harder movement. Otherwise it’s very compact stereo mixer. From the design you have to be aware of possible ground loop (can decrese sound quality notably) and that you will need to amplify output. Usable also as splitter or attenuator.

I searched high and low for a phono RCA mixer and this was the only one I could find. I have used this lots of times and being passive (needs no power) it can be plugged in anywhere without having to have 'another' power adapter etc. I highly recommend this !!

Not as well made as advertised

Boogie Moscovitch 30.10.2024

The manufacturer makes a big song and dance about producing in the US and premium quality. Unfortunately, those factory workers don’t bother lining up the knobs with the holes in the case, so they sit off centre in the holes and rub against the case. Moreover, the passive circuit is advertised as all analog and transparent, but it actually “sucks tone” that is, it degrades sound quality.

Tiny mixer that built like a tank and can be used to solve loads of problems

Degree Productions 09.05.2020

I use this mixer for all kinds of things - mobile live beat-maker setups, sending duplicated signals when I wasn't expecting to need to etc. It's small and can be used as a mixer or to split one stereo signal into 4. It doesn't need power and is solidly built. Only "issue" (and this isn't even a gripe because it's the nature of passive mixers) is that you must gain the signal after in an amplifier.

Passive, therefore DOESN'T COLOUR

kostas0575 02.05.2024

So little choice when it comes to passive mixers with proper resistors! This one has a drop of about 12 db but this has it purpose: channels are totally independent! Otherwise, volume drop in one channel would influence the others. Quite sturdy but not for constant moving around, rather better for sticking with gaffa tape somewhere permanently for studio use. Buy something else if you need it for live - tour - gigs etc !

Quality Mini-mixer

Anonymous 22.04.2014

Very high quality. Working like a charm. The knobs could be a little longer as they can be a little hard to reach. Could have been good with a master-volume.
But It does the job.
