VLZ4: A Proven Lineage for Nearly 25 Years
With the VLZ4 series, Mackie continues a simple philosophy: offering compact consoles capable of delivering clean, stable, and reliable performance year after year. This generation highlights the integration of Onyx microphone preamps and a performance-oriented approach (wide dynamic range, low noise level), while preserving the DNA of the range: robust construction and straightforward handling. The result: the 402VLZ4 positions itself as a serious solution for those seeking a small console that fits both recording environments and live setups, with build quality designed to last.
A Compact Console for Studio, Stage, and Hybrid Setups
The Mackie 402VLZ4 is aimed at musicians, content creators, technicians, and professionals who need simple and effective mixing in a compact format. In the Home Studio, it allows centralizing a few sources (microphone, instrument via line input, stereo player) and quickly adjusting the tone thanks to the 2-band EQ. On stage or during rehearsals, it becomes an ideal small monitor console to manage a vocal, an instrumental source, and stereo playback, while maintaining comfortable gain headroom. In mobile setups, its reinforced steel chassis and compact dimensions make it a reassuring choice for gigs, workshops, or studios where equipment is frequently handled.

Mixer taken as a replacement for a Behringer Xenyx 802. A big leap in overall quality with this Mackie product, the potentiometers are soft and I like the sight meter much more scaled than on the Behringer. Simple and effective in its use. Perfect.
Note that the original transformer made an abnormal noise and I salute the Woodbrass customer service who contacted Mackie France to provide me with another one that works flawlessly. Congratulations to Woodbrass!Automatically translated

I bought this small mixer to replace my Behringer. When the first sound was taken, there was no photo...
The Onyx preamp does its job and the table does its weight, which in electronics is always a good sign. The buttons are soft (I also regret the lack of guts in the central positions) I just regret the lack of pan balance on the tracks (I use it a few times) and no instructions in the box. I'm going to go see it online.Automatically translated
