My review of the Mackie Showbox Battery Powered PA System. Might be the perfect choice for independent musicians like me who gig and often run their own sound. The Mackie Showbox is a battery powered PA Speaker and Amp with a mixer you can detach and mount on your mic stand while performing. Built in Battery in the Showbox can go up to 12 hrs and is pretty awesome. A great PA system for soloists, duos, or small ensembles. I love the breakaway mix control! The bluetooth and USB features make it super versatile and practical for carrying out a full night of music at your gig.
I'm still getting to know all of the features included are so practical for a working musician like myself. Wanna know more? Ask me questions so I can do a follow up video!
