Passive mixers
Mixer is the main component in any live sound reinforcement or studio recording system. Mixers possess different features depending on their intended use, but the basic function of all of them is combining and processing audio signals. You can use mixers in a wide variety of production environments, including live venues, recording studios, and radio or television broadcast studios, as well as film post-production facilities. A mixer's core use is to manage live or recorded sound. Mixers accept sources such as microphones and musical instruments, combine (mix) and process these sounds, and broadcast them to a recording device or an amplified sound system. Without mixers, modern live concerts and professionally recorded music wouldn't exist.
Active mixers come with built-in amplifiers, so they perform two tasks simultaneously and allow more streamlined and centralized operation. With these, you don't need a separate amplifier, simplifying setup and reducing potential clutter. Since these mixers house the amplifier, all the amp controls are also accessible within the unit. Passive mixers on the other hand require a separate amplifier to work, and along with it extra cables, or you need to use powered speakers. While it does complicate setup, it makes troubleshooting easier since the units are separated, also reliability is better since there are fewer components within the mixer.
Active mixing systems are great for acoustic/small concerts, but there are drawbacks when it comes to flexibility and expandability. If you plan to evolve your system – use a passive mixer. Active speakers will work with most scenarios. Using a passive mixer with active speakers is the best solution, as the on-board processing takes out much of the equalizer work and crossover setup needed (if you are using subwoofers). The systems are basically plug-and-play, and you can add boxes to expand as long as you have adquate power. For most bands this is the best solution.
