In sound recording and reproduction, and sound reinforcement systems, a mixing console is an electronic device for combining sounds of many different audio signals. Inputs to the console include microphones being used by singers and for picking up acoustic instruments, signals from electric or electronic instruments, or recorded music. What is audio mixing? In sound recording and music production, audio mixing is the process in which individual track recordings are combined into a final mono, stereo, multichannel, or surround-sound format. Levels, panning, and effects such as EQ (Equalizer) and compression are put on the tracks to make them sound cohesive.
