SWAMP 3 Channel Mixer Audio Interface - 1 Mic Preamp - USB Record / Playback

SWAMP SM11 Mixer and USB Interface 

The SM11 might be small, but with 3 input channels, main outs, a headphone out and a USB audio interface, this mixer has everything you need to start mixing and recording. The XLR / TRS combination input is capable of accepting microphone level, Hi-Z instrument level (guitar) or even line level signals. The 2/3 mix channel with stereo 1/4” line input allows for connecting to keyboards or other line level instruments. On top of this, the AD/DA USB interface allows for simultaneous recording and playback without affecting the recorded signal, making this little mixer the perfect hub for a small computer-based recording setup.

Mobile or Desktop Recording

Whether starting out in the recording game or needing to record on the go, the SWAMP SM11 provides all the functionality of a 3 channel analog mixer as well as USB soundcard for PC, MAC or laptop. All this functionality is bundled into a tiny steel chassis, making the unit a highly convenient desktop or portable recording solution. The mixer is powered via its USB port so there is no need for additional power supply clutter when connected to a USB device. 

Monitor while you Record

The SM11 also includes a 1/4” / 6.35mm headphone output, which allows you to monitor (hear) yourself whilst recording. This in turn allows you to playback a pre-recorded track while you are recording another over the top. Adjust the playback/monitor ratio easily with the USB Playback control, and the output volume with the Phones or Monitor control, depending on how you’re listening.This professional functionality comes at a fraction of the cost with the SM11.

Hi-Z Instrument Input

Channel 1 on the SM11 includes an impedance switch which effectively turns the channel into a high impedance Guitar DI, allowing guitars to be plugged straight into the mixer without the need for additional DI boxes. This means one less piece of equipment to transport and set up!   

Plug-and-play USB interface
