Live sound mixing is the blending of multiple sound sources by an audio engineer using a mixing console or software. Sounds that are mixed include those from instruments and voices which are picked up by microphones (for a drum kit, lead vocals and acoustic instruments like piano or saxophone, and pickups for instruments such as electric bass) and pre-recorded material, such as songs on CD or a digital audio player.
