Has anybody here used this? Steve, is this the unit that you have? I'm thinking about picking one up for my ceremony rig.
For ceremonies, given the non-mixing nature or teh programing, wouldn't an app or program on a tablet be more efficient and simple.
I have a similar one (shown below) I use to mix my computers and my Echo Spot to my office system .. not sure I'd use it elsewhere.

For a small all-in-one mixer, I bought one of the Samson SM4 units ...
I bought the optional mic as well .. it's OK ...
XPD2 Handheld System | Samson
The Samson XPD2 Handheld system allows you to bring a wireless microphone to a variety of sound applications via its uniquely designed USB stick receiver.www.samsontech.com
I've used the Samson many times .. no issue .. it's only 8.5" wide or so, so pretty small.I'm gun-shy from anything Samson. Had a pair of powered speakers just burn out for no reason. I went ahead and ordered the Rolls. We'll see if it's any good or not. Main thing is the format (front-loaded knobs) so it's fit the rig I'm putting together.

You're talking about a mixer from Samson vs. speakers made by Samson. You probably paid little to nothing for those speakers. I wouldn't buy a Samson speaker. I have dual cordless mics made by Samson. 288 concert series. They work well. No serious issues. The cheaper ones I bought by them were pure junk. I should have listened to the guy at KPODJ. They are experts and been selling gear for years besides being DJs.I'm gun-shy from anything Samson. Had a pair of powered speakers just burn out for no reason. I went ahead and ordered the Rolls.

It is kind of weird .. but you get used to it. I bought it because it had BT and the balanced outputs.I like the XLR outputs. Not too keen on the channel config. I think the knobs would be confusing (bass/trebble).

They work very well. That's their top of the line. I went to KPODJ and got them for $250 straight cash.How well do the mics work? I had a Samson wireless and it was a piece of crap.
This is very similar to the wireless mic built-in to the Alto Transport 12 I have .. both are fine for simple stuff like announcements or a quick toast .. I'd never try to have someone sing into one. I only use it for really small events .. otherwise, my controller case has a Shure SLX in it and my rolling racks have a few AT 3000 sets in them when I have a crowd.How well do the mics work?

It was an $80 wireless mic .. wasn't expecting much. The Samson mixer has an XLR input as well, so you can add any mic preferred.Well that certainly inspires confidence..............
