Mixer ancillaries are the vital supporting components that enhance the performance, flexibility, and ease of installation of your professional audio mixers. These practical accessories include remote volume controls, source selector plates, wall-mounted attenuators, rack mount kits, signal interfaces, splitters, input/output modules, Bluetooth pairing accessories, and network control panels.
Designed to work seamlessly with commercial mixers and matrix systems, they provide convenient remote operation, expanded connectivity, and simplified cabling solutions such as CAT5/6 transmission. Many feature clean wall-plate designs in black or white, programmable buttons, and low-noise passive electronics for reliable day-to-day use.
These mixer ancillaries are perfect for a wide range of commercial audio environments, including offices, schools, retail stores, hotels, gyms, conference rooms, places of worship, and multi-zone PA systems. They excel in background music setups, priority paging, remote zone control, and integrated voice alarm or public address installations where quick adjustments and professional integration are essential.
Whether you need remote level control, additional line inputs, Bluetooth streaming accessories, or secure rack mounting, our carefully selected range ensures your mixer system delivers maximum functionality with minimum hassle. Built by trusted brands, these accessories help create tidy, user-friendly installations that perform reliably for years.
Upgrade your setup with high-quality mixer ancillaries and enjoy greater control, cleaner cabling, and enhanced flexibility in your commercial audio projects.
They are the extras that make a commercial mixer usable day to day: remote volume and source plates, wall input plates, attenuators, rack kits, CAT5/6 interfaces, splitters, Bluetooth pairing accessories and network control panels. They are not mixers themselves.
So staff can change music level or source in the room without opening the rack. Typical sites are shops, hotels, gyms, schools and restaurants. A wall plate is safer than leaving the mixer on a bar where anyone can move every fader.
An attenuator only turns the music level down (or up to the cap you set at the mixer). A source-select plate also chooses which input plays in that zone — radio, streamer, CD or a local input. Specify source select if one room needs a different playlist from the rest of the building.
A line plate lets someone plug a laptop or media player into the audio system via a wall mounted socket. A mic plate lets them plug a gooseneck or handheld mic into the same amp / mixer. This prevents tampering with the system itself and enables the rack to be safely housed in a locked rack or room.
Yes. Some interfaces send several balanced audio lines, or link a Bluetooth wall receiver, down one data cable. That is cleaner than running many screened audio pairs across a large site. Use the plate and interface made for that mixer family — CAT5 audio plates are not generic Ethernet gadgets.
Usually yes. Cloud, TOA, Ecler and similar remote plates are designed for specific mixer or amplifier ranges. A generic 100V speaker volume control will not talk to a matrix mixer’s remote port. Check compatibility on the product page before you order.
Yes. Most wall plates and remote level controls come in black and white so they match the electrical accessories or furnishing of the room.
It is the pair of ears or tray that lets a desktop or compact mixer bolt into a 19-inch rack. Use one when the desk must live with the amplifiers instead of on a table. Kit fitment is model-specific.
Use a splitter to feed one balanced source to several destinations. Use a passive mix interface to combine two lines into one. Use a Bluetooth pairing button or antenna when the streamer is hidden and staff need a simple way to connect a phone without opening the cupboard.
