My process is simular. I got a mackie 10 this week.. was lookikg for a long time on the Yamahaa AG-06. But ended up with a mackie. And boi did my sound improve. My sound was so bad before that i DJ in headphones... one more thing why i bought it.. NO Latency. Thx for the vid.
Thanks for the video. One little question please..... can you also use the EQ nubs with the line in from the controller or it only works but with the microphone line?
Did you connect both usb for controller and external mixer to pc and you connect external mixer to controller line 3 and 4 using rca cable back of controller to external mixer XLR JACK LINE 3 and 4 correct?
Sub would be connected to the main outs. If you are looking to control your subs independently then i would suggest upgrading to the 10 channel or a 12 channel mixer.
Bro, if you have self powered speakers you can go from your highs to your subs to the mixer you can do it it on right and left. You can also get creative once you figure out what I'm talking about and you will once you start playing with the mixer. good luck!!!! Dj Elo in the mix!!!!!
Thank you! My English language is not good and i need to ask something because im using flx4. If i buy some mixer is it possible to use effect pedals on it? I looking for way to use effect pedals with my flx4.
Hey man I subcribed cuz your video was well explained cuz most are not wondering cuz I'm having a problem an maybe you know but i have the same mixer an I have the pioneer ddj-flx6 an the trtaktor s4 an I have the roland vt6-4 voice transformer an 2 yorkville ysm 8 can all those be hooked up together withru the 6 channel? Just wondering if you'd know is all you seemed like you knew alot about this stuff an keep doping what you are an I'll keep watching
I have a Ddj flx4 working with rekordbox, do I need to buy a mixer compatible with rekordbox (pioneer) or can I connect any mixer to the consolle and still use Rekorbox?
@@alessandroraisaro165 I’m not sure. I would hit up >>youtube.com/@DJSolstice. For more info about that product. He appears to be familiar with that brand.
I have the same mackie mixer, but i only see 2 green bars max when playing music even though the music is loud. Am i doing anything wrong or not setting up the levels correctly?
Seeing only two green bars is great. You should be worried when you are seeing red. As long as you are getting the volume, you require anything in green, up to yellow or orange. Is good.
Cool video…but the autofocus on the video made me sick. And. More importantly. I thought you would detail the way it was set-up on the software side of things too. Too bad.
@studio_4to1 how do you say “great video” and then criticize his video at the same time? Be thankful he shared his input on this particular device and STFU! Too bad you’re ungrateful…
@@DjSkadre but can you control the subwoofer itself? To control your subwoofer itself is to connect to phones with 1/4 cable next to the XLR ports output. That’s what I did and it works great.
yes i have heard that you can connect your sub to the Headphone out. Are you using this method. If so are you using a 1/4 to xlr to one input in the sub or are you running a 1/4 to xlr splitter to left and right on sub?@@Empire350z
I would run your Xlr out of the controller into the mixer. Then out your mixer to the input of your sub. Then up to you tops for best practice. Remember don’t forget to connect your speakers to an extension cord that is not a surge protector. A surge protector will most often make your speakers clip easily.
@@DjSkadre I’m still a little confused on what I exactly need anyway I can email you a video of what I have set up and you can have a look ? It would be a great help
Thanks for the info. Just brought one, going to use it now
Right on
i was going to do a 10 channel
Thank you very much for the insights and information!
Get my today love it.

Thanks for the video. One little question please..... can you also use the EQ nubs with the line in from the controller or it only works but with the microphone line?
I have a similar question. Like once you get the mixer are you now managing your EQ on the mixer and not on the controller.
@@MyStudioSession yeah cus the eq drivers on the controller are terrible
Only works on channel 1 and two. So if you connect your controller to those channels then yes. 😊
Did you connect both usb for controller and external mixer to pc and you connect external mixer to controller line 3 and 4 using rca cable back of controller to external mixer XLR JACK LINE 3 and 4 correct?
connected the controller with xlr to 1/4 cable to the mixer on channel 3 and 4.
Great video thank you, my only question is where would the subs be connected?

that reverse happened to me as well! lol.
Right on. Thanks for watching. More videos to come.
Can I hook up any pa/mixer ?
Like a pevy xr with dj gear?
Or do I set my vocals up with separate speakers, and PA. Separate from my DJ gear ?
Great video and walk though. What did you record this video with? Audio sounds great.
Used my iPhone
Does external mixer really help in audio if we already have a good controller with good outputs??
It helps a lot with the mics. I used my controller for years without an external mixer. It is your preference.

I figured it out lol. 4 month not ask someone an figure it out go figure
Right on. Sorry i just saw your comment. Right on. Good luck@@mikewallace5804

Any mixer would work. The Flx4 only has 1/4 inputs right. So just make sure your mixer has the same compatibility.
@@DjSkadre would a Yamaha MG10XU work?
@@alessandroraisaro165 yes. That is a very nice unit.
@@DjSkadre what about the Behringer ddm4000. I can't find if it has 1/4.

Do you hook up subs to with along with the regular speakers
Yes. I connect sub then connect tops to sub
Wow super cool video.. is ut 4 or 6 channel? Im not using often.. stay connected 😉💪🔥
Thank you for watching. It’s a 6 channel mixer.
@DJ SkaDre SpinTraxx Ent. Great I plane to buy behringer mixer do you think its good?😊💪
It’s a good brand. Yes go for it.
@@DjSkadre thanks homie 💪😉
How did you connect the speakers and sub?
I connect my sub to the mixer first. I then go from my sub out to the tops.
no EQ in your mixer?
Cool video…but the autofocus on the video made me sick. And. More importantly. I thought you would detail the way it was set-up on the software side of things too. Too bad.
Thanks for watching. It’s a work in progress.
@studio_4to1 how do you say “great video” and then criticize his video at the same time? Be thankful he shared his input on this particular device and STFU! Too bad you’re ungrateful…
There's no EQ on channels 3/4 and 5/6. Makes it pointless. What if I want global EQ control?
Then it’s best to upgrade
Hi! Thanks so much! How did you set it up to your mac? I am finding the software not compatible with my macbook pro?
try and install the drivers from the Mackie website. Link below. Hope that helps.

Why do you need a USB connection?
Computer connection
@@DjSkadre but you can also use the inputs, right?
@@djintenseevents it’s used for recording and or things like streaming with computer
You can use it like a iRig
Where do you connect the subwoofer?
To the xlr ports. Then I go from the sub to my tops.
@@DjSkadre but can you control the subwoofer itself? To control your subwoofer itself is to connect to phones with 1/4 cable next to the XLR ports output. That’s what I did and it works great.

I got that mixer but not sure about the USB. I got the mixer incase a videographer wants to hook into my audio and also for a back-up.
Right on.
How you download program to run on a mac?
Go to Mackie website
Hey man is there any way we can talk on private I need help setting up my mackie to my ddj 800 to 2 speakers and a subwoofer
