12V DC to 12V AC (50 Hz) Converterconverter / Inverterinverter for low loads (< 1A)

I am building a mobile Sound Systemsound system powered by a car battery. I have a small mixing table that runs on 12V but it needs AC Powerpower (50Hz) and won't work with DC (I tried that, with very weird results).)

Currently I am using a 12V to 230V Inverterinverter and the provided power supply to convert it back to 12V alternating current. This seems wasteful and I do not want to introduce another voltage level into my design just to power the mixing board.

How could one build a simple circuit that does this? I have basic electronics skills (soldering, know about resistance, voltage, current) but never buildbuilt a circuit board. I would prefer to avoid opening the device, except it is very easy to do the modifications.

The mixing board is a Renkforce MX260 USB DJ Mixer, Manual. Th manual can be found here: https://www.kirstein.de/docs/manuals/pr-dx26-dten-0914here.pdf
