FAQs about FIFINE Audio Mixers

Get answers to common questions about FIFINE audio mixers, from setup to sound control and device connections.

1. What Does an Audio Mixer Do?

An audio mixer takes multiple audio sources—such as microphones, instruments, or system audio—and combines them into a single output. It allows you to adjust volume levels, balance between sources, and overall sound in real time.

FIFINE audio mixers also offer gain control, EQ, monitoring, and output routing, making them useful for live streaming, podcasts, and performances.

2. Is an Audio Mixer the Same as a Soundboard?

Not exactly. They serve different purposes.

🔍 An audio mixer combines multiple live audio sources such as microphones, instruments, and system audio. It lets you control gain, volume, balance, EQ, monitoring, and outputs in real time. Ideal for live streaming, podcasting, or recording.

🔎 A soundboard typically refers to hardware or software used to play pre-recorded audio clips like sound effects, music stingers, or voice drops. Soundboards focus on triggering sounds on demand, not managing live inputs.

3. How to Make Audio Clearer on a Mixer?

To make audio clearer on the FIFINE audio mixer, focus on proper gain staging and clean signal control:

1️⃣ Set gain correctly: Increase gain until the signal is strong but not clipping.
2️⃣ Balance levels: Keep each channel at a consistent volume—avoid overloading one source.
3️⃣ Use EQ wisely: Reduce low-frequency rumble and gently boost mids for vocal clarity.
4️⃣ Monitor with headphones: Listen for distortion or noise while adjusting.
5️⃣ Avoid unnecessary effects: sound effects are more for fun and personality.

4. Can I Use a FIFINE Audio Mixer without XLR?

FIFINE audio mixers like SC3 and SC8 only support the XLR microphones, 3.5mm LINE IN, and 3.5mm wired headphones (TRS or TRRS). So if you want to use the Microphone, XLR cable is necessary.

5. Does the FIFINE Mixer Have a Software?

FIFINE Genie software only supports with the FIFINE SC8 audio mixers. Other audio mixers don’t require additional software settings.
