Car radio that will mix sound inputs and play them at the same time?
Is there a car radio that will mix sound inputs and play them at the
same time? AFAICT, both the Mazda 2 that I had and the current Honda Jazz/Fit and maybe any other car I've driven lately only allowed one input to the "radio" at a time. So if I wanted to play the music on my Flashdrive, I couldn't get notices from Google Maps where to turn, etc. (Since google maps is not in the rental car, or any car I'll buy. It's only on the phone.) And if I wanted to listen to local radio, via the radio built into the radio, I couldn't get notices from Google Maps where to turn, etc. If I depend on the phone only, it's nowhere near loud enough to be heard over the music or talk. When I tried this at home, I often don't hear the navigation instructions at all, even though they are set on loud, and if I hear a voice, I certainly can't understand what it said. The phone can be connected by bluetooth or probably AUX. I presume that won't make any difference. Is there a car radio that will mix sound inputs and play them at the same time? |

Never tried it with music from a USB at the same time but don't think I could. |

Yes it will. That will mute the music when google maps is saying something and will be load enough to be able to hear it properly. > Is there a car radio that will mix sound inputs and play them at the > same time? You actually need to have the music volume reduced when google maps is saying something and I havent noticed any radio that can do that with one of the inputs when mixing two of them. |

More interesting question would be how to mute an endlessly bull****ting, self-important, senile smartass like you, senile Rodent! -- Sqwertz to Rot Speed: "This is just a hunch, but I'm betting you're kinda an argumentative asshole.

Install a small mixing console or a tablet with
mixer app into the dashboard. |
