bro... Was that a spade tat I saw!? ♠
Nice review! I was very happy that you covered the possible use cases regarding video / streaming / social apps. Was looking for more info on that
This is the 💣 for that sort of thing
Great video Liam just ordered one 👌😊
Oh awesome! Thx for watching 😊
Thank you .. another walk through that covers ALL the angles ..
Pretty much! Thx for tuning in
Nice review.
How do we control the EQ for each channel? Or am I expecting too much. Just wondering what to do if you want a little bit more bass in your mic channel, for example. Thank you.
No EQ!
Thank you for this! Can you use it as an audio splitter? I want to listen to both my Roland Tr-6s and Mc-101. I might connect both to stereo on both devices to mono on the mixer
ummmm i haven't tried this but i THINK it would be possible ? There might be some sort of hack
Very helpful
Glad to help! Thanks for watching.
Hey Liam great vid , was just wondering if I could use this to record from the octatrack ? Thanks
Yes you can! As long as you have the correct cabling it will take audio from any audio source.
Hello, congratulations for the video, very clear!
A question: if I want to use the Phantom, but without using AAA batteries, can I somehow connect it to a powerbank?
I haven’t tried this but I’m pretty sure that if you connect to your phone it will charge it- I’m assuming that usb-c -> powerbank (via usb) would work
@@LiamKillen Thank you!
Only, then the USB port would be occupied by the powerbank and I couldn't use the phone for the video and audio part.
A question: In your opinion, if I use a split USB cable can I use one input for charging and the other to pass audio video data to the phone?
Nice to see Roland have made this Stereo unlike the GO:Livecast which is only mono! and is the biggest let down of that unit... you said 'new world...' like woah! - good review, well done chap.
Yeah this one’s really solid- thanks Micro!
Good review! I’ve a sp 404, guitar, mic, and a zoom h1n, and just wanted to have something in the bag that was small, and I could jam/record/make tidbit ideas to pass around - so this is probably it. Just wondering if there’s anything else on the market that outdoes this since it’s a year ago?Thanks
Tx-6 😏
Way more expensive though
Cool review dude! I fancy one. Don’t need one though….
Yeah it’s got a specific need for sure.
thanks a lot
Cheers
Thank you Liam. If I want to record a video with a microphone connected and guitar connected, there is no reverb for the microphone in this device, so its not a good option to record videos with a microphone right? You always will need a separate reverb/mixer, to manage this effects, so it becomes less interesting to have specific inputs for instruments and voices that sounds very dry. Is that right?
Yeah if you're going DI and you want reverb you'd have to add it using an external unit like maybe an FX pedal or something like this.
Going to repeat what I find out yesterday.
If you have a Galaxy tablet or any separate mobile device that isn't being used to power the mixer, you can use that device as a vocal processor / Sound model.
I'm using it for live looping stuff.
Good Morning Thanks for the review. Not sure How I missed this video. I have been looking at this mixer for a year or more lol. Should of just ordered one. Tried to get the first gen used and the order was cancelled on me. I do have one Question. The reason I was hesitant was based off of phone compatibility. This will plug and play? and inputs audio into your phone? I just want to be clear. I have android and it's a older phone. I never saw to many easy options to do this with android or even my kindle. I was looking at the Live cast mixer they have also. Anyway you can touch on how well it works with different phones? Or am I just over thinking it. Thanks again.
I appreciate you watching! Yes power it with batteries or plug into your smart phone 😊
I'm trying to find a way to charge the iPhone at the same time , there's gotta be some kinda connection that can plug in to a USB or outlet then be able to go into the go mixer and iPhone etc 🤔
Check out Kingston nucleum
A few questions… So your phone provides phantom power for a condenser mic? Can it be powered from a mains wall socket? You can use it as an interface with a daw ?
No! The phone provides power for NON phantom power mics. If you have the right adaptor i'm sure you can you could do this. And yeah technically you can use it as an audio interface- although it's geared more towards quick live performances-
You wouldn’t be able to stand the phone vertical anyway with a cable plugged in the bottom to power the go mixer. But.. what you didn’t mention is that you can power the pro X direct via a the micro usb socket on the rear from an alternative source, powerbank, mains etc
Oh true! Thanks for mentioning that!
Maybe would be possible. If you put the phone upside down.
I have a gooseneck stand with a opening on the bottom to plug-in. Pretty sturdy too.
Got it at a dollar store for 4 bucks.
when connecting XLR microphones, is the audio recorded in the center channel, or is it only on the left or right channel by itself?
does it have enough gain to power an SM7B?
I don't recommend using the SM-7B because it's already a super quiet mic - prob not enough gain!
Great review thanks for the time creating it. Q: would this also work with tablets (android or apple) if so then it brings an new perspective on music live looping production on ipad amd such devices.
Looking forward receiving and reading your repky.
Kind healthy musical regards
from out of Finland.

TBH i’m not sure if it’s compatible with tablets- maybe check out the artist manual!
linked in description!
@@LiamKillen just read the manual and it indeed does :-)
Oh awesome good to know!
So you can plug a guitar amp in one input (with a line out) and a mic in another and hear them both in imovie and do an instructional video that way?
I'm really not sure TBH I never tried it out.
Thank you for the video . Any alternative you could recommend to use with iPhone ? Thanks
Tx-6 😉
@@LiamKillen 😄
If you’re using GarageBand, can you record mic and guitar simultaneously on separate tracks?
I've never tried that but i'm assuming that if you've got the inputs set up right you'd be able to do it.
Hi, Great video thanks! My GMPX is arriving any day. A burning question I have is, can I connect 2 mics at once? (Dynamic for vocals and a condenser for my acoustic guitar).
My acoustic is non plug in. Thanks so much for you help
Unless you have some sort of adaptor I believe it's just one mic input
@@LiamKillen Ah thanks. I might just get an acoustic pickup or maybe position my condenser to pick up voice and guitar. There's always a way 😄 thanks for replying 🙏
I spoke to gear4music and they do a sub zero adapter that will convert a micro usb to an xlr. (I have a Share MV-51 so have a similar challenge)
If I want to plug in my amp to the PRO using direct OUT; do you recommend XLR==XLR or XLR== ¼ inch?
I think that either would work.
Hey thanks for the video! I'm trying to record some bass covers for Instagram. The best way to do this without getting a copyright strike is to have the song play on the Instagram reels function while recording, but the only problem is my phone is too far away so I can't really hear the drums and play in time. Could I use the loop back function and some in-ears to have the backing track in my ear along with my bass? Sorry for the long question, help would be appreciated!
I’m not sure your smart phone will allow you to record with 2 apps open at once. Not sure this is possible
@@LiamKillen Instagram will play the song while filming so you can do it all on there, I’m just wondering if I can feed that audio back out my phone so play along to at the right level
Hi! How exactly do you monitor your sound output from the phone, aside from the phone speakers?
If you're using a DAW you can do it through that on your phone.
Haha phantom power ! Sound cool
It’s so useful for streaming
If I plug in a backing track and my guitar and play along while using my iPhone camera and take a video will it sync all that audio?
Indeed it will
hi liam, how to get rid off that hizzing sound when the microphone volume turn on. thanks
it could be a lot of things- like the audio source that you're using- if you're using a mic that needs a lot of gain like the SM-7B that could be the issue.
How are you recording the audio at 3:38 ? All I see is keyboard and headphones plugged in, so how are you recording output of mixer?
Output of go mixer-> zoom H5.
@@LiamKillen ok so I thought that was a headphones cord but that is a cord going to the H5, got it. I bought one. Mine pops a lot when I have my FRFR powered speaker hooked to it.
Thank you for this. I have just bought one and my first challenge is - I went live on TikTok to play my aerophone and used the headphone socket on a laptop into the Line in 1 socket for use as backing track. When I tried the same set-up again, nobody could hear the backing music - how strange and any thoughts on this please? The next thing is, it is very gear towards iPhone and iPad, but as I like to read the music as I play I am using things like quicktime of youtube on a laptop as the screen is much bigger. I'd rather invest in a new MacBook air rather than an iPad - do you think it would work - I imagine you would use a setup more like that than an iPad? Obvs given you a follow on TT!
I know it’s a problem I haven’t figured out yet…the gain is EXTREMELY low- I don’t use it for Tik tok anymore.
If you're using a laptop, try plugging it into the phone input/output on the right of the mixer with some aux cables.
If all else fails, you might have to do some audio interface.
Sir if you are not connecting go mixer to phone and powering it through batteries how can we record the video (sync along with the audio)
You can power it either with batteries or with your phone
My Go mixer pro only works when I am using the phone's "audio recorder" but won't capture the "audio" when am recording video. Whats wrong?
Turn off Bluetooth on your phone it could be intercepted from a device nearby
Is there a reverb with the microphone input? Wanted to know if there is a reverb built in for microphone when you use it for live performance . Thank you!
There is not
@@LiamKillen Thank you! I guess you still need another added gear to privide reverb
@@LeeGraneMusic I think an amp would be the way to go… like direct output direct input?
Você pode usar o microfone conectado a num reverber e do reverber direto no GO Mixer
I used a android tablet for this and an app such as zenbeats or koala. Plugging a audio cable from the headphone jack of the phone to the 'phone' input/output on the right of the mixer. It seems to automatically send audio from your inputs to whatever device is plugged into the audio input/output hole (I.E, my android tablet).
From there I use zenbeats or koala sampler to apply effects.
It's like this - The inputs on the mixer sends the inputs audio to my tablet, which my tablet processes and sends back to the mixers headphones jack or outputs.
There doesn't seem to be any accidental doubling effect either and next to no latency so far.
I'm thoroughly impressed.
Does it have a charging in put . To keep phone charging whilst streaming
It does not
Hey - curious if this is still the best product to make quick shorts ?
it's great - the only thing is that the audio capacity is low.
@@LiamKillen Yamaha AG03/AG06 also seems to be good
We use this to do Facebook Live at our church and we plug it into our mixer board . . . recently the sound quality has been bad, any suggestions on changes to the mixer board for better sound quality ?
Lower the incoming volume into go mixer pro - it doesn’t handle gain well.
@@LiamKillen What volume do I change ... on the our main church mixer ?
Can you switch to power from batteries to save iPhone battery during long sessions?
I'm pretty sure that if you plug into your i phone it will auto charge via i phone.
@@LiamKillen I'd prefer it to be powered from iPhone or from batteries. I'll check on this when I get mine.
I was wondering since you can monitor sound trough a smartphone..can you also stream while monitoring?
If your phone allows for that then I don't see why not- although i'm not sure you can have those two apps open and functioning at the same time.
@@LiamKillen thank you for the reply, so since there is only one jack for a smartphine I suppose you can only choose between the two
i had that this device doesn't work well with android smart phone ,like Samsung, Sony,...) is that true?
🤔
At minute 3:46 may i know the name of that tools? Tky.
That’s the op1: here’s a playlist of videos about the instrument: th-cam.com/play/PLE5yApCgtOwCQajIIxtJ3X7n8ojWeRiDm.html
Hi. Can it use as audio interface to PC and use with guitar amp vst plugin(like Bias fx) without outputting its direct dry signal?(just output processed signal from PC)
So you mean use it as an audio interface essentially?
@@LiamKillen yes. I means use it with Guitar amp/effect software/vst without outputting the dry electric guitar signal that I connect to the unit ,only output processed signal from PC via usb. Can it do that sir?
Because most mixer with usb interface can't turn off direct input monitoring function.
to my knowledge you’re not able to do that.
My iPhone 12 ios 15 saying that my iPhone doesn't support this ....
After that message i have video without sound does it have to do with the iPhone update????
There's so many I phones updates happening- at this point i'm nort sure what the problem would be there.
Hello . Does it have inbuilt echo/ reverb?
It does not!
If you are recording voice or an acoustic instrument with no pickup, then you need a mic I assume. As in, no built in mic like an iPhone.
Exactly.
I am using an android tablet with koala sampler app plugged into the *phone* input/output on the side while my phone powers it.
Whats cool is that, i dont have to route the microphone to my tablet. Somehow, the input/output sends my microphones audio from the mixer to the tablet.
It sounds so damn good and allows me to add effects to my voice too. So much awesomeness!
Thx for your take on this and for watching!
@@LiamKillen I forgot to mention that one has to enable loop back.
I have a question please, is it possible to use it as a soundcard? i've recorded, no pb, but for the return, headphone, it sutters, why ?
I wouldn’t recommend using it as a sound card I don’t think it’s really meant for that
Can I connect it to a standard Bluetooth speaker to get my voice amplified or I need an amplifier for that reason??
I don’t think it does Bluetooth
Bluetooth speakers aren't recommended in general, as there is a lot of latency. Wouldn't be ideal, typically. Unless there's more info I am not aware of.
instead of directly input my electric guitar into the mixer, can i use aux connection from my electric guitar amp?
Don’t see why not!
Tried it?
i had that it's only work with iphone users?
I’m pretty sure for all android users
hello friend could you tell me the name of that app to record the audio
Garage band! Free with i phones
Can you record audio and video simultaneously and then mix on some sort of software on an android phone? Does it come with any software/apps?
I'm not sure if that's available yet but I wouldn't be surprised if someone made that possible
@@LiamKillen yeah, just looking for something where I can record both Audio and video and mix on the fly. Rather than transfer to my studio setup
You can record video and audio together, that’s it’s primary function, using the camera on your phone along with a sound source of your choice. I use it this way with my drum kit
@@daztastic147 yes you are correct! Do you like it? Is the sound pretty good????
Do you know if it's possible to run a Yamaha ead10 through this? I assume it can be done using standard jack leads 🤔
Yeah i'm sure there's a way to do it! :-)
@@LiamKillen I hope so! I'd like to use an acoustic kit for streaming and want to do it in the simplest way I can 😂
Hello lovely channel: Here is my Gear...
An acoustic Martin D18 guitar with a K&K mini pickup installed. A SHURE beta 87a phantom powered mic. A STOMP BOX made by ORTEGA and a Fishman Loudbox Artist amplifier.
Here is the question; I know the GO gives a dry signal, would it be a better idea to use DIRECT LINE IN LINE OUT and connect the amp to the GO? Would I then need to monitor with my headset in my amp or monitor with my headset plugged into the GO? Would the settings on my AMP have effect on the sound,...I mean is for example chorus and echo noted while monitoring? And the other question: Will my iPhone use the build in mic also when plugged in the GO?
The amp setting would def effect the sound and you’d have the option of experimenting + finding what works best for you within that set up!
@@LiamKillen Great feedback. I thought so! May buy it.
It doesnt come with a power supply? meaning it doesn't charge the phone while you're using it
It's the other way around- your phone will power it while you're using it.
Can you use a wireless mic?
Not to my knowledge.
What is a good mic to use with this?
Anything! One of my go to's is the SM-7B
How do I get one in white. I don’t see it in the page.
I didn't know they made them in white!
Hi 👋 I don’t see any reverb or delay effect knobs!
Not on an audio interface!
can this be powered by a powerbank via the USB?
I’m not sure I’ve only used my I phone
Wish is was stereo. Looking for something like but in stereo.
Fair game.
@@LiamKillen I did find the build kit. Rakit Rakimix 5. I bought 2 of them. Not a bad price. I am good on diy stuff. So thank you just the same for sharing your video.
Where to order this please

Here’s a direct link! 🙂
Is there any effects? No reverb or anything?
No effects!
You can buy pedals pretty cheaply, second hand or some cheaer alternatives. It can also be really expensive if you want like a whole pedal case system going on 😂😅
6:20 oh snap!!! You know someone in engineering is getting a nasty email from someone in marketing. That's big
Get emmmmm!!!
I know Roland make go keyboard.
This go mixer is cool 😎
It’s hella useful
It's professional quality of it's all you can afford🙂
lol
So if you aren't connected to the phone how do you record?
Battery! Or connect to whatever else
You can use an adaptor to plug into anything
So i could record via AUX input in laptop maybe?
No reverb problem reverb
😏😏😏
Does it include Bluetooth?
Ummm to my memory no it does not.
@@LiamKillen thank you
How much are selling this device
Google
Isn’t this really the third try at this product and still a micro usb connection. I bought the pro last year it only took a few months for this connection to go bad. The concept of a small interface is great but this is not road worthy which is the point of it. I unplugged the cord after use so it wouldn’t get bumped and damage the jack in transit but it still failed from normal use after a few months. This thing needs to be built better even if it were more money. There are plenty of options for about the same money that are bulkier but can be powered with a power brick and a usb cable. I just don’t want to see people waste the money on this product. If it were about fifty dollars I would say buy two and then you have a backup but at this price Roland needs to do better.
I haven’t had issues but thanks for the heads up!
4i4 is 3x the weight, substantially larger, and several fewer inputs... don't understand the dismissiveness of this
The black cable was a USB and you said your not sure what it is 🤔🤔🤔🤔
so much different tech now that comparability has become very specific which is why i added the exact model on screen 🧔🏻
@@LiamKillen standard bro
🌀🌀🌀
I can see some line input on the front. I am wondering why you didn't plug the OP-1 into one of the front inputs?
Good question lol- i just had a cable at hand and that’s what I used
@@LiamKillen Thanks, I just wasn't sure if there was something specific to those inputs.
Can it be used without the usb connected? Example audio in from mic or instrument and out into a hardware sampler without involving phone, tablet or laptop?
Yeah but in that case you’d have to run it on a battery
Am in the only one who’s volume is all jacked up on this thing? The volume is too low to really enjoy, the peak is super sensitive
I'm not sure if you mean the video or your personal unit
@@LiamKillen both. When I record a video, I can barely hear my synths volume, and the volume is all the way up on it. Same with recording into a mobile daw.
Suppose I don’t want to output to an iPhone or iPad but into a normal video recorder, is this possible.
Like a computer editing software u mean?
@@LiamKillen like a normal camcorder.
Hmm not sure about that tbh
@@LiamKillen no problem. Thanks anyway
cheers
Even when u have it plugged in you can't have it recording Vertical because of the wire plugged in on the bottom 😏
Yup
People should stop the vertical format, it’s not a nice viewer experience at all
I love it cuz it fills up the whole screen. It really grabs you IMO
@@LiamKillen Somtimes it works well if it is a person talking and you want to frame their face, that's why its called portrait format but if you want to show more, not so much....aaaahhh you one of those, you can tilt your screen to get it in landscape my friend and you get full-screen content if it is recorded in 16/9 and not 9/16 that is the view that makes sense to our eyes and how we look at the world every day not being on a screen, that's why we got two eyes 🎶😊. Going portrait all the time is weird, imagine if your TV always would be in portrait or when you go to the cinema, no!!
@Riddim Tutoriel Do you watch all your TH-cam content on Facebook? I am not a FB man but why would you access anything from there? Use media and tech as it should be used when we have all the possibilities to do so to get a great experience,
@Riddim Tutoriel I do not watch anything on Facebook, TH-cam is a different a story though
You have to film vertically for TH-cam shorts and tic toc.
God ! You really need to change those guitar strings xoxo
I like em nice n DEAD!
Let me get this right. It's not pro quality but it is. 3:15 5:49
It’s pro for streaming but not like studio pro quality ya know? It’s not like neve pre amps or something
@@LiamKillen , how about sample rate? 44, 48? thank you for you response, great vid and info!
SO ........
WHAT'S THE FVKING DIFFERENT WITH LASTEST ONE?????????????????????
🧐
Please I need immediate respond
Lol
Biggest drawback this gear has that it doesn't have Reverb/Delay effect
Fair
Connect amp with direct out in
It’s not Ghetto it’s called Jugaad
