Mackie ProFX10v3+ Analog Mixer With Bluetooth
The Mackie ProFX10v3+ is a professional 10-channel analogue mixer designed for live sound, recording, streaming, podcasting, rehearsals, small performances, schools, venues and content creators who need a compact mixer with modern connection options. It combines hands-on analogue control, Mackie Onyx microphone preamps, USB-C recording, Bluetooth connectivity and upgraded GigFX+ effects in one practical mixer.
Built for users who need more than a simple live mixer, the ProFX10v3+ gives you the inputs and tools required for vocals, instruments, playback devices, computer audio and livestream setups. With four Onyx microphone preamps, 3-band EQ, one-knob compression on channels 1–2, USB recording modes, bidirectional Bluetooth and editable effects on a colour LCD screen, it is a strong choice for performers and creators who want a flexible compact mixer.
It follows the same practical Mackie approach as the ShowBox template, bringing useful live sound, recording and streaming tools together in one compact product that helps performers and creators work quickly with less extra equipment.
Why Choose the Mackie ProFX10v3+?
The Mackie ProFX10v3+ is designed to make compact live sound and content creation easier. Instead of using separate mixers, interfaces, Bluetooth adapters and effects units, you get one mixer that can handle live performance, recording, streaming and playback from a clear, hands-on control surface.
The 10-channel layout is ideal for solo performers, duos, small acoustic acts, DJs, podcasters and presentation setups. You can connect microphones, instruments, stereo line-level gear, computer audio and wireless playback devices, giving you enough flexibility for a wide range of practical audio jobs.
Four Onyx microphone preamps give the ProFX10v3+ a clean and reliable front end for vocals, speech, instruments and podcast microphones. With up to 60dB of gain, 48V phantom power and 100Hz low-cut filtering on the mic channels, it is well equipped for both live use and recording work.
One-knob compression on channels 1–2 is especially useful for vocals, speech and acoustic guitar. It helps control peaks and keeps important sources sitting more evenly in the mix without needing complex outboard processing or advanced engineering knowledge.
The upgraded GigFX+ effects engine gives you useful creative processing for live sound, streaming and recording. With editable effects, saveable presets and a full-colour LCD display, you can add reverb, delay and other processing without needing an external effects unit.
The USB-C audio interface makes the ProFX10v3+ a strong choice for modern workflows. It supports 24-bit / 192kHz 2x4 USB audio and includes Standard, Loopback and Interface recording modes, making it suitable for livestreaming, podcasting, recording and computer-based playback.
Bidirectional Bluetooth adds another layer of flexibility. You can stream music from a phone or tablet into the mixer, or bring calls into your production with mix-minus support, which is useful for interviews, livestreams, podcast guests and remote contributors.

| Mackie Onyx8 | Premium compact recording and analogue mixing | More studio-focused with SD recording, while the ProFX10v3+ offers a more live/streaming-focused ProFX workflow |
| Yamaha MG10XU | Straightforward analogue mixing with USB and effects | Reliable traditional mixer option, but without the ProFX10v3+ Bluetooth workflow, colour GigFX+ editing and enhanced USB recording modes |

Who Is It For?
The Mackie ProFX10v3+ is ideal for singer-songwriters, acoustic duos, DJs, presenters, schools, churches, rehearsal rooms, podcasters, streamers and home recording users who need a compact but capable mixer.
Beginners will appreciate the clear analogue layout, simple channel controls and straightforward one-knob compression. Intermediate and advanced users will benefit from the Onyx preamps, USB-C interface, loopback mode, bidirectional Bluetooth, GigFX+ effects, monitor send and flexible routing.
It is also useful for users who need one mixer across several different jobs. Whether you are mixing a small live performance, recording a rehearsal, running sound for a classroom, streaming online, hosting a podcast or playing music through a PA system, the ProFX10v3+ gives you a practical central hub.
Why Choose a 10-Channel Analogue Mixer with USB-C and Bluetooth?
A 10-channel analogue mixer is a great choice when you need more flexibility than a very small mixer, but do not need the size of a larger desk. It gives you room for microphones, instruments, stereo sources and playback devices while staying compact enough for mobile use.
The Mackie ProFX10v3+ adds modern digital workflow to that traditional mixer format. USB-C recording, loopback, Bluetooth and built-in effects mean it can handle live sound, online content and recording tasks from the same unit.
For performers, this means fewer separate devices to carry. For schools, venues and churches, it gives users a straightforward mixer with enough modern features for today’s audio needs. For creators, it gives hands-on control while still working smoothly with computers, phones and streaming software.
Story & Context

The ProFX10v3+ continues that approach with a modernised feature set. USB-C connectivity, bidirectional Bluetooth, editable GigFX+ effects and multiple recording modes make it well suited to today’s hybrid world of live sound, streaming, podcasting and recording.
Rather than being just a basic compact mixer, the ProFX10v3+ is designed as a flexible audio hub for musicians, presenters and creators who need a mixer that can move easily between performance and production work.
