A mixer takes microphones and music sources, lets you set the level and tone for each, and combines them. An amplifier takes that signal and makes it powerful enough to drive passive speakers. Active speakers have the amplifier built in, so you may need only a mixer. A mixer-amplifier (powered mixer) puts both in one box, which suits small installs.
Key takeaways
- Mixer: levels and tone for each source.
- Amplifier: power for passive speakers.
- Active speakers need only a mixer.
- A powered mixer does both in one box.

05Frequently asked questions
How many channels do I need?
Count every microphone and source, then add a few spare. Eight to twelve suits many churches.
What is a powered mixer?
A mixer with an amplifier built in. It saves space and cabling but limits upgrades.
Do I need an equaliser?
Most mixers include basic tone controls; extra equalisers help in difficult rooms.
Where do effects fit?
Reverb and effects can be built into the mixer or run through it as a separate unit.
