Roland to release $100 GO:MIXER for iOS devices/YouTubers + new Rubix series of Mac/iPad interfaces

Roland has just introduced its new GO:MIXER for iOS and other smartphones. The palm-sized mixer allows users to connect up to 5 devices at once through its mono mic and analog line instrument inputs. While there are a number of options for multi-track set-ups on iOS including the popular IK Multimedia interfaces, the sheer number of inputs and affordable price tag make the GO:MIXER worth a closer look.

It is bus-powered via your iOS device and measures only 3.75-inches (95 mm) square by just over an inch in height (28 mm). GO:MIXER features front-panel gain controls for each input along with a master knob normalled to the stereo output (nice for headphones as well).

Roland is aiming the 5-input mixer at YouTubers and the video making crowd. The 5-way simultaneous inputs and dedicated mixing controls will be a really nice touch for YouTube musicians and other live soundtrack type work.
