MackieProFX12v3+ 12-Channel Analog Mixer With Enhanced FX, USB Recording Modes and Bluetooth
1/6
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Mackie’s ProFX12v3+ combines a 12-channel analog mixer with USB-C recording and streaming tools. Seven Onyx mic preamps, line inputs, compression on channels 1-4, and 3-band EQ across every channel provide hands-on control before audio reaches a computer. The 24-bit/192kHz interface offers three recording paths: a processed main mix, computer-audio loopback, or dry signals for later work in a DAW. Bluetooth occupies its own stereo channel and adds Mix Minus for call-in audio.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Recording a multi-source session while sending dry mixer signals to a DAW for later processing.
- Livestreaming or playing over computer audio using the mixer’s Loopback recording mode.
- Podcasts with remote callers, music beds, or sound effects from a Bluetooth-connected device.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Setups requiring more than 12 mixer channels.
- Sessions requiring more than seven microphone preamps.
