Hi. Am based in the UK and found lots on Amazon, but many of them were very cheap (£15-ish) and seemed to be called microphone mixers. I presume that they're not powerful enough to channel something as powerful as a laptop or USB soundcard (hence the low price), so am trying to make sure what the differences are and to ensure that I get an affordable product which won't go to waste. I presumed there might be some people on here who already use appropriate gear for broadcasting or DJ-ing and might therefore be able to advise from first-hand experience or knowledge of how these things work.
