Audio-Technica’s First USB Mixer Released

Audio-Technica announced the release of its first dedicated USB mixer for musicians and content creators, the AT-UMX3. Featuring dedicated instrument inputs and a loopback function for easy live streaming, this mixer was made for musicians and creators who want to go live, all while having complete audio control at their fingertips. The AT-UMX3 is available in selected stores and on the Audio-Technica website from 19 April.

The AT-UMX3 has various features, inputs, and controls ideal for all content creators. It is designed to deliver professional-quality results every time you go live or hit record. Its plug-and-play USB-C connection is compatible with Windows PC, MAC, iOS, iPad, or Android devices, allowing you to power and stream your favourite microphones, and instruments wherever you go. The dedicated loopback function allows your audience to hear your latest creation, in game audio or background music. Simply turn it on to send your PC’s audio directly to your mix and adjust the level to your liking.

Made with musicians in mind, the AT-UMX3 features a Neutrik XLR/6.3mm combo microphone jack (with selectable 48V phantom power) and a switchable Hi-Z or stereo input for guitar, bass, keyboard, or other external devices. Each input has separate gain and level controls, peak and signal indicators, and a dedicated microphone mute button. It also features a microphone monitor mute and adjustable output for your own headphone mix. The onboard microphone pre-amp is optimised for the Audio-Technica 20 Series microphone range. A built-in high-performance A/D converter delivers up to 24 bits/192 kHz, ensuring professional results regardless of the microphone’s make or model.

The AT-UMX3 is not only powerful but also user-friendly. Its compact size and rugged metal construction allow for easy placement on any desk without obstructing your workspace. The intuitive controls make it a breeze to navigate, ensuring that both novices and professionals can fine-tune their mix and broadcast or record their latest creation in no time. The AT-UMX3 ships with a USB Type-C to USB Type-A cable and USB-C conversion adapter. It is available directly on the Audio-Technica Australia website and authorised Audio-Technica microphone dealers.
