Rockville RPM45 2400w Powered 4 Channel Mixer, USB, 3 Band EQ, Effects, Phantom

This unit performed flawlessly for our first gig and worked very well in the weeks ahead while we used it in the practice room testing it out. The features for the money are very hard to beat and the build quality is impressive in it's weight and composition. The knobs are not overly large or bullet proof but they are solid and smooth operating with very small adjustments yielding noticeable change in tone and volume, etc. The connections for the speaker output, mic in and signal in are just as well made. There are some features on the unit that we are not in need of such as the MP3 and some of the effects so I can't speak much to those. Overall this is a clean, loud and well built PA head that for the money is just the ticket.

I hesitated a lot before I made a decision to buy this mixer because there were a lot of complaints about the fan noise. I also considered Pyle but I ended up buying Rockville, a used (very good) one. I was able to confirm that the fan noise was very loud, but I do not know if this is louder than its competitors, but if you want to use it in a small space, this noise would be a problem and I do not recommend it. But if you are going to use it in an open space or in a large space, this level of fan noise would not matter much. The design is simple and it functions well. I think this mixer is quite solid. I also have a pair of Rockville Passive Speakers (12 inch), and this mixer works very well with the speakers.

First thing I did was check out the usb feature of this head. It worked well. Simple to manipulate. The second thing was to run a Line 6 head through it with a stereo direct out split into two channels on the Rockville RPM45. That worked well. Reproduced the sound from the direct out of the amp nicely. Of course I had to play with the settings of the individual channels I was using, but still sounded better than I expected. I haven't tried a instrument direct yet. Eager to find out what my classical electric will sound like through it. Though this is not a complete review of its capabilities but, I'm satisfied with the product. It's non-complicated, easily portable, affordable and has some power. What more could you want.

Its i nice amp , but not as strong as they say .

My old Peavy mixer amp died, and, given the amazing price and good reviews, it seemed worth giving the Rockville product a try. I am beyond pleased. It does more than my old Peavy mixer amp did and is just right for a small band. I didn't realize that an MP3 player was included. The player is excellent, with easy controls. The unit is light and easy to handle. Just finished our first small performance and it was a breeze. The audience seemed to like the sound too!
