Choosing Citronic Mixers | Professional Audio Mixing for DJs & Events

Decide whether the mixer just mixes or also powers the speakers, then count the inputs you need and check how it connects to phones, laptops and recorders.

Compact and studio mixers

The CMA-series 170.862UK, 170.864UK and 170.866UK have 2, 4 or 6 mono channels plus stereo inputs, 99 DSP effect presets, a Bluetooth receiver and a USB player and recorder. The Q-PAD 170.814UK is powered from its USB-C port, which also works as an audio interface, so it suits podcasting and laptop recording.

Powered mixers

A powered mixer has an amplifier built in, so it drives passive speakers directly. The CSP Series runs from the 8-input 170.841UK at 200W to the 14-input 170.845UK at 2 x 350W, with 16-program DSP effects and a 7-band graphic EQ. The FLITE-600 170.600UK packs 2 x 300W, dual UHF microphones and USB recording into a moulded flight case for mobile entertainers.

Rack and DJ mixers

The CSR-63 170.809UK has 6 mic/line and 3 stereo channels with +48V phantom power and Bluetooth, and its end panels let it mount in a 19in rack at a little under 4U or be used free-standing. For DJs, the PRO-2 MKII is a 2-channel, 5-input mixer with a replaceable crossfader, and the 172.776UK is a 4-channel, 14-input 19in mixer with USB in and out.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a powered mixer and a standard mixer?

A powered mixer has a built-in amplifier and drives passive speakers directly, while a standard mixer sends a line-level signal to active speakers or a separate amplifier. The CSP Series 170.845UK is powered, with 2 x 350W to drive 2 or 4 speakers, and the CMA-series 170.862UK is unpowered, with balanced XLR outputs.

Can I play music from my phone through a Citronic mixer?

Yes, on the mixers with a Bluetooth receiver, such as the CMA-series, the Q-PAD 170.814UK, the CSR-63 170.809UK and the FLITE-600 170.600UK. The CMA-series and the Q-PAD also play audio files from a USB drive, and the CMA-series 170.862UK can record the main outputs to a USB storage device or act as an audio device for a laptop.

Which Citronic mixers have phantom power for condenser microphones?

Most of them. The Q-PAD 170.814UK and the CSR-63 170.809UK switch in +48V phantom power, the CMA-series switch it in pairs of XLR inputs, and the CSP Series provides 48V phantom power on its XLR inputs. The FLITE-600 has switchable phantom power for vocal microphones, while the PRO-2 MKII DJ mixer does not list it.

Which Citronic mixer suits a DJ?

A DJ mixer with phono inputs for turntables. The PRO-2 MKII 172.752UK is a 2-channel mixer with 5 inputs, 2 phono, 2 line and 1 mic, and an easy-glide replaceable crossfader. The 172.776UK is a 4-channel, 14-input 19in mixer with 3-band EQ on its stereo channels, USB in and out, and a DJ mic plus 2 vocal mic inputs for karaoke.

Can a Citronic mixer be fitted in a 19in rack?

Yes. The CSR-63 170.809UK is supplied with rack side panels for fitting it into a 19in rack, where it takes a little under 4U, or it can be used free-standing with the panels left off. The 172.776UK DJ mixer is also 19in, and rack cases such as the 171.715UK (2U + 10U) and 171.718UK (4U + 10U) carry mixers and other 19in equipment.

Is there a Citronic mixer kit for home recording?

Yes, the Q-PAD Home Studio Bundle, 300.209UK. It combines the Q-PAD compact mixer, whose USB-C port works as a duplex stereo audio interface, with an SMK-7 studio condenser microphone on an angle-poise worktop mount with a suspension mount and pop filter, and Citronic studio headphones for monitoring. The mixer adds a USB player and recorder and a Bluetooth receiver.

How do I protect a mixer in transit?

Use a case sized to the mixer. The ABS carry cases 127.038UK (445mm wide) and 127.039UK (525mm wide) have segmented foam squares you remove to shape the interior, and sliding latches. The 171.772UK rack case has a 6U top and 3U front section in vinyl laminated plywood, and the 171.709UK flightcase takes a mixer and two turntables on castors.

What effects are built into Citronic mixers?

Several models have a DSP effects section for vocals and instruments. The CMA-series has 99 adjustable presets for delay, reverb and modulation, switchable by foot switch, the CSP Series and CSR-63 have 16 presets, and the Q-PAD has a delay effect for echo. The 172.776UK DJ mixer has an internal digital delay or an FX loop for its vocal mics.
