What does the Mix-It do?

The problem:
Many motorcycle riders would like to listen to music from their MP3 players, CD player, AM/FM radio, etc. while still being able to hear a radar detector alert, GPS direction commands (for those units with a speech option), or CB radio. Until now, the only solution has been to listen to one device or the other (for instance, listening to music and counting on visual alerts from the radar detector which is not easily seen during daytime riding), or buying a cheap 'Y' cord from an electronics store to connect two devices together. The problem with the 'Y' cord approach is that some devices are not compatible with each other, and one device can damage another by using this type of cord. When you have invested so much money in your equipment, do you really want to take that risk? In addition to compatibility problems, some audio devices simply are not loud enough to be heard clearly while riding.

The solution: Mix-It! Of course! The Mix-It allows the user to plug in up to 4 devices simultaneously and keeps them electrically isolated so they cannot damage one another. It has been tested and is compatible with many devices: MP3 players, CD players, cassette players, AM/FM radios, satellite radio receivers, essentially ANY device with a headphone output! It also has a built-in amplifier and volume control to boost audio levels so they can be heard above road noise, which itself is a great benefit to the user.

How it works: The typical setup is a music player and radar detector. Set the volume control on the Mix-It between 1/4 to 1/2 way. Plug in and turn on your music player and set it to a comfortable volume level using it's volume control. Then turn on the radar detector and set it's volume to a level so you can hear it distinctly over the music. Since the radar detector only generates a tone when there is an alert, you will mostly just be hearing your music. This sets the "balance" of the device volume levels. The volume control on the Mix-It then adjusts both devices output level at the same time with one convenient control. Why four inputs? You likely will not listen to four devices at once, but you can connect them all and then power on the ones you want to hear at any given time. if you cannot listen to them all at the same time? Users have found they would like to connect multiple audio sources at the same time, with only one or two active simultaneously. This way, when they want to listen to a AM/FM radio instead of their CD player, all they need to do is turn one device off, and the other on without having to mess with wires and volume levels - set them and forget them!

Note: The Mix-It does not provide a microphone interface or communications capability and will not work for conducting conversations on a cell phone or CB radio without additional hardware and/or cables.

Expand the auxilary inputs on your existing communications system:

For those communications systems that only provide a single auxilary input (or just don't have enough inputs for your needs), plug your devices into the Mix-It and then connect the output of the Mix-It to the AUX input on Autocom, J&M, Chatterbox devices.

Music source and cell phone.

The Mix-It is NOT just for motorcyclists! Have you ever wanted to listen to music while doing yardwork but your music source just is not loud enough? Plug it into the MixIt and get additional amplification! How about wanting to listen to music, and even hear your cell phone* ring? Plug your music source and phone into the MixIt and you can listen to your music and hear the phone when it rings!

*some cell phones do not ring through their headphone jack, consult your owners manual.
