I was looking for something that allows me to mix different audio sources into my PC for streaming but this doesn't seem to be what I am looking for :c also, cool video, but too much explanation for things that we can know by looking at the thing
I got my Fifine microphone a while back, and was very happy with it, saw this mixer was on sale for Black Friday, so picked it up thanks to this review covering the areas I had questions with!
Awesome video dude, I'm about to purchase this product from watching your review. Question though to finalize my thoughts: 1. Does Monitor Mic Slider only monitors the mic? Can you also hear the Line In and audio coming from USB C being adjusted by it? 2. Can Line In Slider adjust audio from USB C?
Great questions! So the line in slider will control the mic and line audio over monitoring so lowering the slider will lower all monitoring for all tracks. You can monitor mic and line with monitoring for sure. Line in slider will not adjust audio from usbc which would be your computer most likely.
Great video! I have a 10 year old Scarlett 2i2 which has served me well, but it's definitely missing simple features that's more useful for streaming and this is the perfect replacement for it. Thanks for the awesome information and demos!
@@vixtality477 so when you say everything, do you mean all your pc sounds including system sounds? With this mixer there is no way to only play game audio and not system sounds as well. You will require a third party app to control audio sources individually. One such app is the steelseries GG. It’s free.

I have the Fifine AM8 mic and i love it. So this was a natural fit to upgrade to XLR. I tend to stick to same brands for maximum compatibility. its a great entry level mixer, Just wish the amp was a little louder. I have to daisy chain an extra headphone amp to make it nice and loud. Im using my Nintendo Switch on the line in and even all the way up i can barely hear it. The custom sound effects recording is horrible though, sounds like it was recorded with a string and a tin can
Hello, i just bought one and I have a hyperx quad cast mic (usb mini - USB A), do you know a way to connect the mic with the mixer, or if it is possible? I don´t know which cables to buy. Can you help me? Thank you.
Hello! I'm planning to buy this mixer to pair with my Fifine AM8 however I found out that when you switch to XLR cable from usb, you lose the ability to mute the mic via the sensitive touch on the mic, is there a way to be able to mute mic using sensitive touch while using the XLR mixer at the same time?
ive only seen great reviews of this and i bought it along with a fifine mic and i cannot get it to work at all lol and the mic quality is low and my previous fifine mic that wasn't as nice sounds better. idk what I'm doing wrong but I'm so confused.
When you say you can’t get it to work at all, do you mean all of the functions even outside of mic use? Which mic did you get with this unit? If you’re using xlr then quality should not be so low unless the xlr cable is the issue.
I'm about to upgrade from my usb mic to an xlr mic and this product is out for delivery for me today. This was the perfect video for me to learn! Very thorough! Thanks! Also, how will I know if my mic needs the 48v turned on or not? And if just gaming and chatting, wheres the best spot for my headset?
Thanks for the feedback! You would know if it needs the 48v if you plug it into your mixer and it doesn’t work. The product description for the mic should have also noted that somewhere. If not bad advertisement on their part. For gaming and chatting, I would always try to use the xlr mic whenever I can. But for just the headset/mic combo you want to use the headset port on the mixer.
Thanks! So my headset is a hyperx cloud alpha and I have the mic part disconnected from the headset. So I should use the port in the back of the mixer instead of the headset jack in the microphone? Sorry I'm just a little confused lol.
I have a question, can you set this to get audio on a dual pc stream setup similar to a go xlr? I don’t mind not being able to control it individually as I currently have it through a splitter. Thanks for the review!
@@socalgod_ I don’t have an in depth one yet but I think I need to make one. This is a common question I get. Here’s a response from the Fifine shop: Yes, you can use this to set up dual PCs, and all audio can be transmitted to the streaming computer. Additionally, there are two situations that need to be noted: 1.If voice software such as Discord is used on game computers. SC3 USB is connected to the game computer as input and output, and SC3 LINE OUT is connected to the input port or microphone port of the live streaming computer. 2. If voice software such as Discord is used on live streaming computers/or does not require voice communication with teammates. The SC3 USB is connected to the live streaming computer as input and output, and the headphone interface of the game computer is connected to the SC3 LINE IN port.
I hope you will see this over a year later. Think this will work well with the Shure SM7B for podcasting and gaming? My Pyle 4 channel mixer stopped working :(
You can use any headset that is not a usb headset with this mixer. Works with headsets with built in mics as well so doesnt necessarily need a standalone mic either. Hope I understood your question correctly.
I have a single pc setup. I didn’t want to go dual because of the extra setup stuff. I just went a little beefy on one pc to handle all the load. I believe Fifine themselves have a video on a quick setup for dual pc’s.
So I’m thinking hooking up my dac/amp into the line in and using headphones to monitor just want to make sure that I’ll still benefit from using an amp if it’s going into the mixer
@@SojuLOL I can’t see why that wouldn’t work. But this is. Budget device I can’t say with certainty there will be a limitation there. Should get my hands on an amp for testing purposes.
Great review very funny , quick question can I use my wired Logitech or Razer usb headset and my Finefine usb mic . And will it work if they are all connected to my doc box I use obs as well btw
Hey thanks. So fifine doesn’t recommend using usb devices for this mixer. Though that does sound like a good experiment. A few people have already asked about this. Maybe it’s time I create a video for it 😉
I wish the sample rate was a little better for the recording buttons. Simply because it would be useful when recording short clips, you'd want them to sound like the original sample. With that dip in quality, it just makes it more difficult to reliably use it. For something like FiveM would be an interesting tool to use for certain Roleplaying Characters. Overall, it seems decent but almost feels like it would be more worth it to spend a little more to get more features.
are you able to use the custom buttons to copy game audio? like to mess with someone in game chat by replaying what they say? or does it only record your mic
Nice idea. Yep you can record their audio coming in if you can time that right. It will pick up all audio though unless you’re able to mute game audio.
Great video! I have two questions. Does this work with a blue yeti mic? Does this have an echo repeat effect? For example I want to shout out a gifter and make it repeat
Thank you for your comment! The Fifine SC3 is designed to work with a variety of headphones, so it should do a great job with your dt770. Unless you had some other use for it in mind?
@@TekToyzGaming I mostly game & some times watch movies with it and I’m not an audio guy but I do love&appreciate a good sound ، I did have a soundcard ( EVGA nu audio ) it’s really really great for headphones even the cheap ones but not that much with my shure dynamic pga48 mic so I wanted to get one thing for both my headphone&MIC
Good question. As far as I can tell not on a hardware level. That was set at the manufacturing of these. It’s not one of its strong points. I do feel though at this point or soon we should get a Fifine app the way there is the Maono link software to eq devices.
IT’s recommended by fifine that you use an xlr mic. Usb conversion may not play nice converting digital to analog. It’s really not meant for it to be used that way.
This device does not support usb headsets unfortunately. Your headset will need to have a 3.5mm output. It will support the headset mic as well in that fashion.
Hey. Thanks for the question. So it definitely doesn’t have to be a fifine mic. Can be any xlr mic. Just have to be sure to use the correct xlr/condenser mode.
@@TheOnlyJJmovement blue snowball no. its usb. You CAN use a usb mic with the mixer.. only if your mic has a 3.5mm jack and you can run it through line-in or headset for mix area on usb mics.. but it's not recommended. XLR is recommended for this mixer.
Hey I have wireless headphones which uses a usb stick to connect, do you think if I connected that stick to a usb to headphone jack adapter I would be able to use it with this ?
Thank you!! I had to get rid of my goxlr because it just kept restarting and crashing all my apps using it. Just ordered the fifine because I’ve heard so many good things about it!
@@thelopez0194 I don't have a video on this specifically. Not totally sure you can even do that with this device without a third party app or physically connecting your game audio to a separate aux channel somehow.
Hey there! Thanks I definitely appreciate your support. A lot of devices I check out on this channel I buy with my own money so every little counts 😃. Hope you like the SC3
@@TekToyzGaming I ask because I got both maonocaster and comica caster c2 amd both have a delay on th monitoring outputs and that's a dealbraker for me
@@marfigue777 listening to myself in monitoring on sc3 is one of the better real time monitors. Better than the Maonocaster c2 Neo. Haven’t tried the Comica one out.
I can’t believe! I thought I could put my earphones and I could hear the sound of my Pc. As I’m seeing I if I put my earphones I can just hear my voice right?😩 I have to delete the order I guess
@@TekToyzGaming You think so? I tried the same thing with a live card sound, I tried that but I couldn’t . I usually play Warzone but it didn’t work. Hopefully this one will work, thanks for your answer!
Thanks for the question. There’s really no better one here. Depends really on what you want to use it for. If for gaming and streaming the sc3 will do better. If you don’t need all the voice changing and rgb features the sc1 will be better. Same goes for podcasting.
Any idea if this can provide phantom power to a mic and have the power for dt 990 pro 250 ohms? My scarlet solo cant handle the headphones so I have to use a secondary amp currently.
No this will not power high impedance headphones. You will still need to use an amp to power those. I'll add as well, most audio interfaces will not have sufficient power for high impedance headphones. And it is perfectly okay to use an audio interface and an amp. That's what I do as well as many others.
is the mic monitor easy to adjust? I was unsure if the slider above the button is overall volume or just mic monitor volume. Maybe it's both? if you could clear this up for me I would appreciate it.
I just need a device to control music volume while playing a game. i don't stream, I don't use a separate mic. Need Just a device so that I can control music volume while playing. Any recommendations?
@@TekToyzGamingnot game audio, music volume in the background, so I have the game running on 60% volume and I want to be able to control the spotify volume for example in a clutch situation, to quickly turn the spotify volume down momentarily. (I am using in ear (earphones).
@@johnrodes4859 a little tricky since it sounds like your talking about controlling/adjusting audio sources of apps independently in pc audio mixer settings. Not sure if there’s hardware that does that. Might need to use something like OBS and set Spotify as a source and then a hot key to mute that source. Never actually done it myself though.
@@Caribbean-Dream242 unfortunately this doesn’t work with usb mics. Needs to be xlr. I’ve even tried using a usb to 3.5mm aux adapter and still doesn’t work.
You can, but it’s a little of a workaround for that. Check out this video for a setup with Xbox th-cam.com/video/7ubTNR6TOiY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bCDvO-SofwM5ZGzZ
Only down side to that is that you can't press and hold down the censor button/sound in order to sensor everything you want to censor. It'll have to be a set length of the censor sound that will either play too short or long for what you want to censor.
No, first of all, the XLR adapter is one way round, it won't work from USB to XLR. Next, usb mics are built to get rid of the external mixers. if you want to bypass the internal one of your USB mic, which is a quite large part of what you paid for a USB mic, then it's better not to get a USB mic in the first place. That means, if you haven't planned to upgrade your setup, just stick with the quadcast, which is pretty good enough tbh.
@@TekToyzGaming lmaooo. Ayyy I remember pullin up to high school boxin the whip wit he homies before school bumpin bone thugs haha. But dope video man! My friend is gettin this exact audio mixer
@@TopScottyGamingYT do mean connected directly to a ps4 without a computer involved? I does with pa5. Don’t see anything stating ps4 on their site. Can’t say for sure. Here the setup for ps5. Maybe it works for pa4 the same. th-cam.com/video/OF-vMOlZbpQ/w-d-xo.html
thank you, I appreciate the info. I just put my order in last night. Getting Bailey to start a podcast and need a good master where I don’t have to work so hard very excited about it. I’m especially excited about the voice changer and autotune. 😂 can’t wait to use it. I subscribed to check out many more of your videos.
Could be a few reasons. You could possibly have a voice effect on. There could be another audio capture device on. Could be the unit is defective. Does you headset have a built in mic? Have you tried with another headset to confirm it’s not the headset? Is the echo just through the monitoring or the recording/stream? What port is the headset plugged into on the mixer? Several variables as here.

@@TheOnlyJJmovement blue snowball no. its usb. You CAN use a usb mic with the mixer.. only if your mic has a 3.5mm jack and you can run it through line-in or headset for mix area on usb mics.. but it's not recommended.
XLR is recommended for this mixer.
So I have AmpliGame H6 headphones RGB usb ! I also have K688 so plug in xlr k688 then what
Hey I have wireless headphones which uses a usb stick to connect, do you think if I connected that stick to a usb to headphone jack adapter I would be able to use it with this ?
@@silent8335 I’m afraid most usb to aux jack connections don’t work with this mixer, even usb mics.
@@TekToyzGaming alright thanks though
Thank you!! I had to get rid of my goxlr because it just kept restarting and crashing all my apps using it. Just ordered the fifine because I’ve heard so many good things about it!
I just got mine. I hear a little static noise when I plug my IEM into the headphones spot. is there something i am doing wrong? thanks
Not sure on this one. Do all devices connected to that port create that static issue?
@@TekToyzGaming i picked up a ground loop noise isolator and removed the problem immediately
@@thelopez0194 oh nice move. You’re talking about the inline isolator. So they actually work. Thanks for sharing that 👍🏽
@@TekToyzGaming yes sir they do. Is there a video on how to separate game / chat mix ?
@@thelopez0194 I don't have a video on this specifically. Not totally sure you can even do that with this device without a third party app or physically connecting your game audio to a separate aux channel somehow.
Thumbs up, ordered bc of this review. Keep up the good work. Edit; went back and removed it and used your affiliate link.
Hey there! Thanks I definitely appreciate your support. A lot of devices I check out on this channel I buy with my own money so every little counts 😃. Hope you like the SC3
Dude.. you’re a clown haha dope video dude! I totally enjoyed it!
🤣My bad I can't help it. Glad you enjoyed!
@@TekToyzGaming Don’t stop! 😃
Question I have the FIfine RGB headset with mic! So where do I plug in audio jack from sc3 also I’m on Pc
Hi. If the headset has a 3.5mm Jack then can just use the headset port. If usb you will need an adapter.
I think you referred to the H6 USB headset, that model doesn't work with the SC3, you have to use it with the 3.5mm headset.
What mic are you using
@@JollyBean-360 that’s the fifine AM8. Sounds ok?
@@TekToyzGaming yeah it’s good I just wanted to know
does it have real time monitoring?
Absolutely does 👍🏽
@@TekToyzGaming I ask because I got both maonocaster and comica caster c2 amd both have a delay on th monitoring outputs and that's a dealbraker for me
@@marfigue777 listening to myself in monitoring on sc3 is one of the better real time monitors. Better than the Maonocaster c2 Neo. Haven’t tried the Comica one out.
I can’t believe! I thought I could put my earphones and I could hear the sound of my Pc. As I’m seeing I if I put my earphones I can just hear my voice right?😩 I have to delete the order I guess
@@elvismalo2628 you can hear your pc. You have to set the sc3 as the default audio playback device on your pc.
@@TekToyzGaming You think so? I tried the same thing with a live card sound, I tried that but I couldn’t . I usually play Warzone but it didn’t work. Hopefully this one will work, thanks for your answer!
@@elvismalo2628 yea for sure. I listen too pc audio all the time with mixers and record that audio.
You funny as hell b, keep it up 🎉
Thanks!😂
Can you use this for a dual pc streaming set up
Yes this works for dual pc streaming. Fifine confirmed it on their Amazon page as well. www.amazon.com/ask/questions/Tx35B05W0MXIT5B/?
instant cop becuase i thibk i want to start streaming or even make a podcast
Go for it my friend. We only live once and don’t want to regret not having tried🤙🏽
What kind of xlr cable do u recommend for the mixer and does it matter what kind of boom arm u use for the fifine am8
Honestly I don’t think either of these matter. Fifine takes both sizes and a standard xlr will suffice.
May i know your mic used in this video?
I used the Fifine am8. Sounds decent?
which is a better one to buy between the FIFINE Gaming Audio Mixer, VS FIFINE Amplitank SC1 Recording Audio Interface
Thanks for the question. There’s really no better one here. Depends really on what you want to use it for. If for gaming and streaming the sc3 will do better. If you don’t need all the voice changing and rgb features the sc1 will be better. Same goes for podcasting.
i have to buy an amp for my dt990 pro 250 ohm would this work to its full potential for it
@@SmileyOnGfuel it should work just fine especially if you have the amp.
Any idea if this can provide phantom power to a mic and have the power for dt 990 pro 250 ohms? My scarlet solo cant handle the headphones so I have to use a secondary amp currently.
No this will not power high impedance headphones. You will still need to use an amp to power those.
I'll add as well, most audio interfaces will not have sufficient power for high impedance headphones. And it is perfectly okay to use an audio interface and an amp. That's what I do as well as many others.
I use a yamaha MG10XU and it powers high impedence cans and well as mics.
Fifine Sc3 is one of the best budget cost under $50 is absolutely great for this mixer.
Yea Nothing this good at this price point that I know of.
@@TekToyzGamingyou're right 👍
My only problem is that all of my recordings have a horrible shhhhhhhhhhhh background sound
Hmmm. Need to root out the source of that sound. Could be a cable somewhere if it’s loud. Could be mic. Are you using xlr or usb ?
Hello. great video. does a shure mv7 over xlr work? Do you know that maybe?
Thanks for the feedback. A Shure mv7 should work fine with this over xlr. Provides 48v if more power needed.
@@TekToyzGaming good. thx…
what if my headset uses usb to connect
It’s not recommended by fifine to use usb with this mixer.
is the mic monitor easy to adjust? I was unsure if the slider above the button is overall volume or just mic monitor volume. Maybe it's both? if you could clear this up for me I would appreciate it.
Another good question. The mic monitor slider will adjust overall audio monitoring… except audio coming in from usbc input.
@@TekToyzGaming ok gotcha. Thanks a ton Mr.
Nice, so how does it actually sound for gaming...?
@@Boemtie it only sounds as good as the far end persons headphones sound . If they have trash speakers then sounds like trash.
I just need a device to control music volume while playing a game. i don't stream, I don't use a separate mic. Need Just a device so that I can control music volume while playing. Any recommendations?
Just to control game audio? I initially did that with just a headset that has a volume rocker on it. Are you also not using a headset?
@@TekToyzGamingnot game audio, music volume in the background, so I have the game running on 60% volume and I want to be able to control the spotify volume for example in a clutch situation, to quickly turn the spotify volume down momentarily. (I am using in ear (earphones).
@@johnrodes4859 a little tricky since it sounds like your talking about controlling/adjusting audio sources of apps independently in pc audio mixer settings. Not sure if there’s hardware that does that. Might need to use something like OBS and set Spotify as a source and then a hot key to mute that source. Never actually done it myself though.
@@TekToyzGaming i see... well appreciate the help.
Clearly a biased video, wish everyone wasnt bought and paid for on these reviews
They don’t pay enough to be bought. And I think the Maono C2 Neo is a better budget option.
i know bone thugs lol sub for that
I just wanted to know if I can use this without a goxlr or fifne mic because I have a maono and don’t wanna purchase another mic
If you have a Maono mic and it is xlr then you can use it with this mixer.
@@TekToyzGaming I don’t think it’s xlr it’s just a simple plug and play and I’ve tried using it with the audio mixer and it’s not picking up the mic
@@TekToyzGaming so I guess I purchased this for nothing
@@Caribbean-Dream242 unfortunately this doesn’t work with usb mics. Needs to be xlr. I’ve even tried using a usb to 3.5mm aux adapter and still doesn’t work.
@@TekToyzGaming appreciate the help
Just to have an idea. Can I connect an outer microphone that has a type c or a normal USB?
Really only xlr mics work with this. Or a gaming headset mic combo.
Would this work on consoles?
You can, but it’s a little of a workaround for that. Check out this video for a setup with Xbox th-cam.com/video/7ubTNR6TOiY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bCDvO-SofwM5ZGzZ
Is it necessary to hook up the aux but also have a headphone jack hooked to it?
@@Jayden-g4k3r not sure exactly what you mean. The headphone jack is an aux connection. Do you mean aux line in from another device?
The voice changers were kinda funny, the “male” voice reminds me of the “MIU! I told you we needed more glitter.” From the trolls movie
Can you use 1 of the 4 custom buttons as a censor button (with the bleep sound)?
Absolutely. You can use it for ANY sound. Just add your own censor sound you would like.
Only down side to that is that you can't press and hold down the censor button/sound in order to sensor everything you want to censor. It'll have to be a set length of the censor sound that will either play too short or long for what you want to censor.
@@johnrodriguez2372 Yea that is correct. It will just play the sound of the recording. So no real cough button.
I don't need it but it is so cool
Yea I’m ashamed to say I have quite a few things I don’t need but are cool lol
Does this work in game chat like call of duty or fortnite
absolutely my friend. along with the all the effects and features. just gotta mac sure the mixer is the the mic input device in settings.
Blasphemy…. You name Bone With auto tunes.
🤣. Facts. They did not need that!
Would this work if I got an xlr adapter for my hyper x quad cast s
I’m a little sketchy with converting usb to xlr. It may or may not ok work.
No, first of all, the XLR adapter is one way round, it won't work from USB to XLR. Next, usb mics are built to get rid of the external mixers. if you want to bypass the internal one of your USB mic, which is a quite large part of what you paid for a USB mic, then it's better not to get a USB mic in the first place. That means, if you haven't planned to upgrade your setup, just stick with the quadcast, which is pretty good enough tbh.
@@FIFINE thanks for that info. You rock.
This thing would be awsome if it didnt need a wire to connect
Yea that’s one of the draw backs. No internal battery 🔋
if i get this and 250 ohm headphones, do i need an amp still?
@@flazblat you shouldn’t need an amp. But for the final word I would suggest contacting fifine web@fifine.cc
shout out to bone thugs man. very legendary.
Haha I knew someone would know. Yea def legendary. Grew up on them. Ah sht just gave away my age!
@@TekToyzGaming lmaooo. Ayyy I remember pullin up to high school boxin the whip wit he homies before school bumpin bone thugs haha. But dope video man! My friend is gettin this exact audio mixer
will it work for ps4?
@@TopScottyGamingYT do mean connected directly to a ps4 without a computer involved? I does with pa5. Don’t see anything stating ps4 on their site. Can’t say for sure. Here the setup for ps5. Maybe it works for pa4 the same. th-cam.com/video/OF-vMOlZbpQ/w-d-xo.html
thank you, I appreciate the info. I just put my order in last night. Getting Bailey to start a podcast and need a good master where I don’t have to work so hard very excited about it. I’m especially excited about the voice changer and autotune. 😂 can’t wait to use it. I subscribed to check out many more of your videos.
why does my headset start to echo when i plug it in?
Could be a few reasons. You could possibly have a voice effect on. There could be another audio capture device on. Could be the unit is defective. Does you headset have a built in mic? Have you tried with another headset to confirm it’s not the headset? Is the echo just through the monitoring or the recording/stream? What port is the headset plugged into on the mixer? Several variables as here.
6:10 can u use ur phone to or just mac and pc
Yes you can use your phone as well via the aux port.
@@TekToyzGaming cool can u make a vid on how to record audio for th sound board via phone
@@J0E_ED1TZ that’s actually not a bad idea. Can be a quick little demo. I’m sure many will want to know and see it in action.
@TekToyzGaming yea cuz my pc broke an i dont have mac book/chomebook i getting th fifine and no one show how to use a phone on it only pc
@TeKToyzGaming
Can you Connect your Guitar wo h it?
*with it?
Fifine doesn’t advertise that it does. If it does work I imagine it will not work well.
@@TekToyzGaming Ok thank you but how can I play with my Guitar on a pc and what is what I Need for it??
Also what Audio mixer
@@MR.V_GamingKid may need to step up to something like the Maono ame2 for instrument use.
