It rolls with the best of them

I have the black version and it's well-made. The labelings are clearly marked on the metal chassis. I love it!
All I needed was another stereo input on the Audiogram3. Yeah, I could've bought the Audiogram6 for that. At the time I didn't have the SonicCell. I didn't want to buy a mixer. I wanted something that didn't need much space. Having 3 stereo channels is a godsend! Now I can add another instrument if I want to without it being a problem. The best part about the Rolls Mini-Mix VI are the 3 stereo channels, pan on each channel, master level and heaphone level. I just mentioned all the features!
I've connected my stereo outs of the Yamaha MO6 and Roland SonicCell to the stereo ins of the Rolls with the output of the Rolls connected to my Yamaha Audiogram3 so I can record from both instruments without unplugging one to connect to the other. Whew! That was a mouthful. With limited space in my room, I decided the Rolls would satisfy my input needs...and it has!
It has no tone. Pure clean sound goes in, pure clean sound comes out.
I only had it for a week so time will tell. But I couldn't imagine this bad little fella breaking down any time soon.
Your general opinion of this product.
A big time and money saver...and problem solver! This little device doesn't compromise sound quality at all. Whatever kind of sound goes in, you'll get the same coming out.

Your general opinion of this product.
QUALITY:
Looks built well and quite solid. High-quality inputs and outputs. However, see notes under "Sound".
FEATURES:
This is the exact concept I was looking for in a product. I'm primarily using it as a headphone mixer, for listening to my portable music / radio, while also being able to hear the notification sounds from my computer, etc. I particularly like having both the 1/4" and 1/8" (3.5mm) headphone jacks available so I don't have to constantly worry about loosing the adapter.
The only other feature I'd like to see would be being able to control each channel level separately between the master and headphone mixes – only if it didn’t require making the unit any bigger, as the small size of this unit is probably one of its biggest features.
EASE OF USE:
Too simple of a product to pose any difficulties in use.
VALUE:
I think $75 is a bit pricey, considering a simple 12 channel desktop mixer can be purchas
