I was looking for a simple and reliable way to control monitor volume without adding color to the sound, and the t.mix Volume 1 does exactly that.
The build quality is solid and reassuring, especially for the price. The knob feels smooth and precise, with no scratching or channel imbalance even at low listening levels.
Sound-wise it is completely transparent – no noticeable coloration, no noise, no signal degradation. It’s perfect for a small studio or home setup where you just want a physical volume control between your interface and monitors.
Of course, it’s very minimalistic and doesn’t offer extra features like mute switches or multiple outputs, but that’s not a downside if you know what you’re buying. It focuses on doing one job well, and it succeeds.
Overall, an excellent value-for-money passive volume controller. Simple, effective, and trustworthy.
