How we ranked these audio mixers

Every pick has at least 100 customer ratings on Amazon and a listing with real specifications. The order mixes two things: how each model compares on the specs below (higher share of the best value in this group scores more), and how widely it is bought. The spec score runs from 9.0 to 9.8 and only compares these picks with each other. A spec the listing does not state is left out and the other specs are re-weighted; a listing with fewer than 2 stated specs is scored at half. We do not test gear in person. Full method.

  • Mic preamps weight 2
  • USB audio to computer weight 2
  • Built-in effects / amp models weight 1

Buying advice: 4 channel digital mixer

Count channels before you buy

Channel count decides how many sources mix at once. The Pyle mixers and the Depusheng have 4 channels each, the Behringer has 5 channels, and the Yamaha has 10 channels. More channels suit larger setups with more microphones and instruments, while 4 channels suit a compact DJ setup. Pick the count that matches the sources you mix.

Check Bluetooth, USB, and phantom power

Bluetooth streams music without cables, USB records to a computer, and phantom power runs condenser microphones. The Pyle mixers and the Depusheng have Bluetooth, USB audio, and 48V phantom power. The Yamaha has USB 2.0 for computers and tablets, and the Behringer connects over MIDI. Match the connections to the devices you already own.

Look at effects, EQ, and preamps

Effects, EQ, and preamps shape the mix before it reaches the speakers. The Yamaha has 24 SPX effects, 3-band EQ, and 4 microphone preamps, while the Behringer has 4 multi-FX sections and 3-band EQ. The Pyle PMXU48BT and the Depusheng adjust high, low, and pan on each channel. Pick the mixer with the controls your mix needs.
