Roland MX-1
Mix Performer
Mixer (AIRA)

The MX-1 Mix Performer was launched in 2015 as the DAWless mixer for the other ARIA products or the digital interface for the other AIRA product launched about the same time.  Nearly 10 years later the purpose of this mixer is still unclear.

The mixer was billed as an 18 channel mixer, which was slightly misleading.  There are 18 channels, but these are split across multiple inputs (4 mono inputs, 1 Stereo, 1 Digital, 4 USB and 1 PC inputs).

I have used the MX-1 as an extension mixer, as a digital interface and just as a mixer for a number of ARIA instruments and synths including my Roland Jupiter-80 which can occupy 1 USB interface.
