Don't need no stinkin' mixer any more. But I use one most of the time anyway, just in case I have a guest artist or vocalist. Also I could, along with laptop, could get through the night if the keyboard ever failed.
I use this one these days. It is powered by USB, weighs next to nothing and has outstanding features.
