Are you sure that the BR-80's line/phones output isn't defect? Unlikely
that all Mackie line ins are defect. I can't believe that the output of
a Roland device doesn't work with the input of a Mackie mixer. You can
use the BR-80 with headphones? It's loud or silent when connecting
headphones with how much ohm?
I suspect that the BR-80 is broken.

Mackie 802-vlz3, but my mic preamps (3 of them) are always occupied, so
it's only channel line inputs (or "tape in") left.
When I connect the BR-80 to the input channel, then I have to turn the
channel level to max and the mic levels very low, only a slight turn on
gain by accident will mess up the mix. This is very annoying in a
stressful live situation where I want everything to work at once.

So far, it have been working very well for us/me when providing only one
or 2 channels for the in house mixer in order to get started fast, we
have a reputation of having "CD quality" sound for our gigs - wich is
not true of course - but we are so far only playing in places where
it's 20-250 persons, so I don't know how long this setup works. The problem here is that it's only one output
(Line/Phones - 22 ohms)
that gives way to low output for line level, are someone aware of a
decent pre amp (DIY is ok) that can be plugged into line input level
in a mixer?
I don't like to use headphone outputs, but a mixer should be able to be
used with the signal from a headphone output. A phones output unlikely
will produce a too low level for a line input.
What mixing console are you using?
